Companies Launch Partnership to Make Masks & Gloves with Ionic+™ to Help Fight the Global Pandemic
Hong Kong and Scranton, PA – July 7, 2020 – Julius Group and Noble Biomaterials today announced the launch of a strategic partnership to produce reusable antiviral/antibacterial gloves and masks for consumer use. Amid the global pandemic, the two companies are partnering to allow Julius Group to manufacture antimicrobial/antiviral PPE using Noble Biomaterials’ powerful Ionic+™ Antimicrobial Technology.
The reusable antibacterial gloves and mask will incorporate 99.9% pure silver woven directly into the fabric, which in turn provides a dramatic reduction in virus viability on soft surfaces. The consumer products will be released through InnoTier (official launched by Julius Group recently) - an innovation-driven company with a mission to develop products that help people live a more sustainable life.
