Silverized Fabrics, Comfortable to Wear and Beneficial to Your Health as Well!!
V Technical Textiles, Inc. provides a line of clothing made with Silverized knits and fabrics. These conductive metalized textiles make the clothing more comfortable, as the silver is a great conductor of heat. This conductivity spreads the natural body heat that it absorbs throughout the surface of the garment, creating an even and balanced body temperature, lessening the presence of "hot spots and cold spots", and making the wearer feel more comfortable. This "balancing" of the body temperature increases circulation,...

Sensors and Electrodes- A Perfect use for Metalized Textiles!
Most of us are familiar with the sensors that our health professionals use to gather many types of biometric information about the function of our electrical body organs including: the brain, heart, nerves, temperature, blood oxygen saturation, humidity, and muscles. Electrodes are also carriers of electric current for stimulation therapy for nerves TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and muscles EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation). Traditionally, these sensors have been "wet Silver Chloride Sensors". The "wet part" is a gel to provide reduction...

I’m not “Just Spinning you a Yarn”, Shieldex®Yarns and Threads are the Best!
Shieldex Yarns are the most versatile yarns not only due to the anti-static, anti-odor properties, but for their high electrical and thermal conductivity as well. These silver plated polyamide yarns can be used in the same fashion as non-coated yarns for twisting, warp-knitting, weft-knitting, embroidery, weaving and spinning. Due to the conductivity of silver, these yarns can be used as a conductor in sensors, for the manufacture of clothing, home textiles, as well as "smart textiles". The yarns are available...

What can Metalized Textiles do for You? Your Imagination is the only Limit!
Since the founding of V Technical Textiles, Inc., it has been the world's single largest distributor of electrically conductive fabrics and notions. Many people have no idea what metalized textiles are used for. When they first came out, metalized textiles were used largely in electrical manufacturing in the aerospace, automotive, electronics industries as ESD carpeting, EMI shielded gaskets and quickly evolved into shielding materials in electronic devices to stop RF Interference from affecting the proper function of these sensitive electronic...

We Live in “Testing Times”, Make Your Testing Times Accommodate Your Schedule!
Students returning to school this Fall aren't the only ones who will have to prepare for rigorous testing to see if they meet the educational standards required of them to advance to the next level! Companies that have been shut down during the pandemic are coming back to life, and hopefully, producing lots of new and different electronic devices that will be coming into the marketplace in various areas such as the aerospace, automotive, electronic, medical, along with military and...

RF Protective Suit, Protection for 5G Workers, Microwave Workers and Maintenance Personnel!
Most of us know that we are surrounded by RF radiation all of the time. This radiation is of the non-ionizing variety, meaning that it lacks the energy to damage the DNA of a cell and cause mutations. RF is routinely absorbed by the body and the effects of this absorption are called "thermal effects", basically much as a microwave oven can heat water, RF radiation can rapidly warm the body. The eyes and the testes are most vulnerable to...

Want to Keep your Servers Free from Unwanted Intrusion? Put them in an RF Shielded Rack Enclosure!
A business stores a lot of valuable and sensitive information on its servers, hopefully, they also have firewalls and antivirus/antimalware software in place to prevent hacking the system through the internet connection. An offsite encrypted backup also helps to take away some of the risk of a ransomware attack. Improving digital security is part of the never ending chess game between today's digital criminal and computer security developers. One new way of accessing a company's most sensitive information is by...

RF Shielded Faraday Bags and Pouches, use Military Grade Technology to Protect Sensitive Digital Information Stored on your Electronic Devices!!
For years, the Military, the Police, and the Government agencies have been aware of the need to secure sensitive information and communication equipment such as phones and computers, that can be accessed by WiFi or other wireless means. Whether it was done by use of a specialized room called a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF, pronounced "skiff"), or by placing the devices in Faraday Bags and Pouches. In the legal system, it is commonplace for computers, phones, and other electronic...
