Nano Mask Launches Line of Nano Silver Technology Hospital Curtains

Nano Mask, Inc. announces that it has launched a complete line of Nano Silver Technology Hospital Curtains which is being manufactured by an ISO 2010 certified manufacturer. The complete line is now available for sale in the United States and Europe.

Nano Silver Technology is an antimicrobial colloid composed of silver nanoparticles stabilized by polymer that exhibits excellent antimicrobial efficacy across a wide spectrum of microorganisms. Silver has long been known to inhibit the oxygen exchange in bacteria, killing the bacteria. Nano Silver Technology has been demonstrated to prolong and enhance that effect. Its super-charged magnetic attraction pulls the abnormal DNA of viruses, so it cannot reproduce, thus killing viruses.

In testing, Nano Silver Technology testing has demonstrated the ability to eradicate Staphylococcus aureus, ATCC 6538P and Klebsiella pneumonia and ATCC 4352. In addition, the Nano Silver Curtains are flame-proof (Type C), anti-static, dust-proof; disposable; recyclable, and mildew-proof and are available in three different styles and 13 different colors.

 

Nano Mask believes that the introduction of this advanced anti-bacterial technology may reduce the risk to patients, staff and visitors of hospital-acquired infections by eliminating certain pathogens, molds and fungi that come into contact with the curtain. In most cases Nano Mask believes its Nano Silver Technology Curtains offer a considerable cost saving when compared to conventional systems and will not only help to saves lives and reduce clinical costs (including infection treatment costs), but will also reduce capital, labor and laundry costs. Nano Mask plans to launch this product in the United States and international markets immediately through its network of distributors and manufacturers' representatives servicing the hospital market.

Nearly 4 months into the DRC's Bundibugyo virus disease outbreak, some indicators suggest transmission may be slowing. But shifting hotspots, treatment-center capacity problems, community deaths, and incomplete surveillance data show why national case totals alone cannot determine whether containment has been achieved.

Is the Ebola outbreak in the DRC getting better? The answer depends on which numbers you examine. Several important indicators are moving in the right direction, including slower case growth and a declining Rₜ. But major gaps remain in contact tracing, testing, community deaths, safe burial coverage, and treatment capacity in some of the hardest-hit areas. ICT takes a deeper look at the latest outbreak data and why the numbers suggest cautious optimism, not victory.

At AHE Exchange 2026, ICT spoke with experts representing commercial laundry services, EVS, and infection prevention about the systems behind a successful reusable linen program. They discuss linen quality, reject rates, unnecessary waste, frontline education, data, PAR levels, infection prevention oversight, and why strong relationships between health care facilities and their laundry providers matter.

How do you celebrate an infection that never happened? That's one of the unusual challenges infection preventionists share with teachers. Both can spend their careers changing outcomes they may never see. Both educate people who don't always want to listen. Both are second-guessed. Both face burnout. And both must somehow keep remembering why they started.
