Relax in Protective Comfort-Silverell!
Relax in Protective Comfort-Silverell! Winter is a cold season, and it's nice to relax in comfortable Silverell® Wellness Garments. Garments made of Silverell® are comfortable due to the thermal conductivity of Silver, the most conductive element! What makes these garments comfortable is the conductivity of the silver in the yarn taking your natural body heat and balancing it evenly thought the garment, eliminating "hot spots" and "cold spots", creating one comfortable temperature. The resulting comfort from the warmth and the...

Technical Embroidery-Flexible Conductive “Wires”!
Technical Embroidery-Flexible Conductive "Wires"! I think of embroidery as "decoration" of garments. Logos, names on uniforms, hats, come to mind when I think about embroidery. The final result is intricate, colorful and adds to the appearance of the embroidered item. Technical embroidery is useful as a way to conduct electricity and data in smart textiles. Using threads and yarns that are plated with Silver, the most conductive element, embroidery is about function now! Hospital garments have embroidered electrodes and sensors...

TPU Wire-a Conductive Yarn “Wire”!
TPU Wire-a Conductive Yarn "Wire"! TPU "Wire" is a silver metalized yarn with Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) coat that acts as an insulator. Silver is the most conductive element, making it logical to use where conductivity is important. TPU is important for insulation purposes in low voltage wire systems. The flexibility of both the yarn and TPU creates a benefit not found in metal wires. Metal wires are not the best conductors to use when the wire is subject to frequent...
