About our anti-radiation action
Our WaveStopper silver-lining technology has been tested and certified by the MET Laboratory, Baltimore to block over 99% of cellphone and Wi-Fi radiation. So your privates are protected.
What is EMF ?
Electromagnetic Field (EMF) is a continuous field produced by electrically charged objects such as your cellphones and Wi-Fi. EMF travels in a wave-like pattern at the speed of light and this propagation is called electromagnetic radiation.
Some electromagnetic fields are produced naturally, like the low intensity EMF emitted by our body. However, tech-made EMF — those transmitted by cellphones and Wi-Fi — are unnatural and can cause health risks.
Different types of EMF
EMF varies based on their propagation: the difference in their wavelengths and frequencies. High wavelength radiation — like a radio — have a low frequency and convey small amounts of energy. Low wavelength radiation have a high frequency and are packed with tremendous energy.
Is it dangerous ?
The higher the frequency, the better the field will penetrate the skin, interact with cells and genetic material. Thus, the risk to health increases with the frequency. For exemple, X-rays are very-high-frequency variation and are highly carcinogenic. Microwaves have a little lower frequency, and can pose a significant health risk at medium and long term.
For several years, we have been constantly exposed to high intensity microwaves produced by cellphones, WIFI and bluetooth. It’s even more concerning when you think that cellphones are usually put in the pockets, right next to our private parts, exposing them to very high levels of microwaves.
Even if there’s no scientific consensus for the moment, the great majority of studies show that microwaves can have dramatic effects on male fertility:
- Larik RSA et al., 2017 : « Exposure of human sperm to wi-fi internet connected with laptop causes decrease of the motility and increases the DNA fragmentation »
- Argawal et al., 2009 : « Sperm viability was significantly lower in exposed samples compared with unexposed samples. »
How does Wavestopper protect you ?
Electromagnetic radiation cannot pass through holes in conductive material which are smaller than their wavelength. This way, it is possible to shield an object from EMF by surrounding it with a conductive wire-mesh like our Wavestopper Technology.
When encountering this electromagnetic shield, the radiation induces a displacement of electrons inside the conductive material, which causes, in return, the radiation to be reflected to the outside instead of going inside the shielding.
We used this scientific fact to make our Wavestopper fabric : the silver inside the cotton is sewed in order to act as a wire-mesh and shield what’s inside from EMF. This technology was certified by the same laboratory that certifies NASA spacesuits : the test results state that our fabric blocks 99% of microwaves, which includes wifi radiation, bluetooth, and cellphone radiation.
Antibacterial action
The silver fibers in our fabric tackles bacteria at the molecular level. Silver ions enters the membrane of the bacterium, destroys the cellular structure, and prevents odor-causing bacteria from developing and multiplying.
Heat-regulation action
Stay fresh longer with our most breathable underwear. When worn against our skin, silver interacts with the body temperature to create a balanced environment.
