VIRHOME – The new treatment against bacteria and viruses

24/9/2020

MARTINELLI GINETTO S.p.A., a leader in the home furnishing textile industry, and DEVAN, a Belgian company leader in the field of high-tech products for textile finishing, have partnered to develop VIRHOME, a textile treatment that effectively protects textiles against bacteria and viruses with antimicrobial properties and rapid reduction of viral load. Developed and tested in MARTINELLI GINETTO Group’s ennobling and finishing unit, VIRHOME is based on BI-OME, a non-migrant, permanent, sustainable, salubrious, OEKO-TEX®-certified technology. The VIRHOME treatment makes furnishing and household textiles more clean from bacteria and viruses without compromising on their comfort, freshness and pleasantness to the touch. Designed for residential applications, VIRHOME also effectively address the needs of the hospitality market; hotels, B&Bs, spas, restaurants, and nursing homes now have an ally in the fight against bacteria and viruses.
