While Polygiene ViralOff is particularly relevant in the Coronavirus Pandemic situation, it will also be a longer term solution to enhance hygiene even once the pandemic has settled down.
Polygiene ViralOff does not prevent diseases, but protects the treated material.
)
The active ingredient has been tested against Influenza A, BirdFlu, Norovirus and Corona (SARS) over the years, and in all cases, has achieved 99% levels of reduction.
The ISO18184:2019 is a standard test for the determination of the antiviral activity of textile products in a two-hour timespan, where it has to reduce the virus by 99%, to pass. This test uses viruses of the Influenza A strain.
How long does it last?
It is a durable and always-on treatment. For best performance and sustainability, wash less and only when needed.
No, we don’t make any health claims.
This is for the protection of the treated product. If, when and how this also is beneficial for the user depends on many other things.
For instance, a face covering will never stop viruses from going through it, but we can ensure viruses don’t live in and on it for long.
Does this mean in any way that we can say or guarantee you stay healthy? Of course not.
Can we say it is a protection for the face covering itself? Yes! And it will make your face covering last longer too.

ViralOff has a 99% reduction of viruses, in a textile or material, over two hours, according to a standard ISO18184:2019 test.
Can ViralOff be used next-to-skin?
Yes, it does not affect the skin as it doesn’t interfere with the skin’s natural bacterial flora.
How is it applied?
Normally, it is applied to the fabric at the finishing stage of production. As several treatments can be simultaneously applied, no additional water or energy is needed and the impact on the environment is reduced.
Does it have any environmental certifications?
The product is certified by Oeko-tex® Eco Passports and in the process of being certified by bluesign®.
What is ViralOff made of?
The active ingredient is a biocide and it is made of a reaction mass of titanium dioxide and silver chloride and the product is not nano-silver.

AirXtream Fusion has a high percentage of stretch for added comfort while still retaining its durability.
Its weatherproofing means it can be used for longer on its own when the weather turns bad and acts as the perfect mid layer in colder conditions, reducing bulk while still helping to retain insulation.
A combination of materials brought together in one performance system.
The outer woven stretch component is treated with a highly durable water repellent finish and then bonded to a hydrophilic membrane.
The final component is the lining; this ‘Air Channel Matrix’ system minimises contact with inner clothing or skin and allows for an increased air gap, helping to improve the overall performance of the layering system and reducing condensation without constraining body movement.
AirXtream is designed to minimise the number of layers needed to insulate and protect against extreme elements.
Used as part of a layering system or alone as an outershell, the durable water repellent finish repels rain and snow while the tight weave gives excellent windproofing.
The textured brushed lining provides a comfortable insulating inner and the inherent stretch provides ease of movement.
This is an active fit and is very tailored.
If you prefer a looser fit or want to be able to wear layers underneath, you may want to go a size up from your usual size.
The Munro Jacket is an Explorer fit with plenty of room for layering.
Some people find this quite generous sizing, if you prefer a tighter fit you may want to go down from your usual size.
PrimaLoft is incredibly soft, lightweight and breathable with excellent water repellency so you remain dry, warm and comfortable, even under the most extreme conditions.
Ounce for ounce as warm as down, Primaloft microfibres are similar in size and shape to down, resulting in nearly equal insulating performance when dry and even better when wet.
Because its individual fibres are water repellent, Primaloft retains much of its ability to keep you warm, even when moisture has soaked through.
Primaloft Gold Active is designed to regulate your comfort level during intense activity, while offering performance without compromise in a wide range of conditions.
Similar to the structure of down with incredible softness, Primaloft is highly compressible and easy to stuff.
Its resilient fibres are quick to regain their loft to provide uncompromising insulation.
Primaloft insulation is soft and supple like down, making it an excellent choice for active outerwear.
It allows unrestricted movement and its light weight makes it comfortable for extended wear.
Its specially structured star yarn rapidly removes moisture away from the body, dispersing it over a large area for fast evaporation into the outside atmosphere, keeping you drier for longer.
The moisture management is inherent in the manufactured construction and cannot be washed out, ensuring it lasts the lifetime of the garment.
ADS also protects from the sun’s harmful rays and has a UV protection level of +40.
ADS works in harmony with your body, providing maximum comfort during periods of high activity outdoor sports.
Keela’s ADS garments are perfect for use worn individually in warm weather or as a base layer in conjunction with a layering system in colder environments.
ADS Thermal is the ideal thermal control layer for active use.
Constructed from our ADS star yarn fabric with an added layer of thin fleece on the inside, ADS Thermal is excellent at heat generation without the bulk of a fleece yet is highly breathable.
Years of research and development into base layer fabrics has helped us to achieve Carbonised Active Dispersal System (CADS) – the ultimate wickable fabric base layer.
The specially constructed yarn network rapidly draws moisture away from the body and disperses it over a large area for fast evaporation into the surrounding atmosphere. Its super-fast wicking and high breathability rate works with the human body to keep the wearer dry and comfortable 100% of the time.Being Anti-Microbial enables it to eliminate odours being emitted from the wearer while offering a higher standard of hygiene.
Perfect for use on its own in warm weather or as part of a layering system in colder climates, CADS is the next step in performance fabrics next to the skin.

Innovation fabric is designed for the highest hills and tallest mountains.
Developed to be the last word in high end waterproof/breathable performance fabric, the Innovation range is most often found in combination with our System Dual Protection technology due to its ideal compatibility and usability.
A texturised nylon laminate coated with hydrophilic PU fabric; highly breathable and wickable with excellent waterproofing, Innovation 5 is used in our System Dual Protection range.
SDP was originally developed for use in Military applications, and has gone on to be used by Tactical Forces, Mountain Rescue and Emergency Services requiring performance clothing that works as hard as they do.
It has become a popular choice with the outdoor community and has been used to conquer the world’s toughest mountain summits and survive the harshest Arctic conditions.
In recognition of SDP’s success, Keela was awarded the Queen’s Award for Enterprise: Innovation, one of the UK’s most prestigious awards, which recognizes outstanding achievement in the categories of international trade, innovation and sustainable development. Keela are grateful for the recognition of their innovations and continue to further develop System Dual Protection to ensure our customers know they can face the elements with confidence and in comfort.
Just like condensation on a window or in your car, your jacket can build up moisture on the inside.
You’ve seen it before, you find your new jacket has moisture inside after a good half hour of physical exertion.
But why?
Although it may look and feel as though your jacket is letting in water, the moisture is in fact caused by condensation building up inside.
Think about your car windscreen on a cold day… fogging up due to the temperature difference between the inside and the outside here force ventilation is needed to clear the moisture.
Just like that, no waterproof garments breathe in wet or old conditions, no matter what marketing hype may tell you. Breathability claims can be made, but with the international test standards being set in dry conditions at 21°C and above, the results are far removed from the conditions in which we expect our products to perform.
