Chito Santé

Chito Santé is a new environmentally-friendly fabric that is made from a natural biomass called Chitosan. Chitosan is made from crab and/or shrimp shells.

Chito Santé is created when Chitosan is combined with textile fibers during the dying and/or finishing process. Since Chitosan binds very easily, it can be combined with a variety of different fibers and creates a fabric with many benefits.. Chito Santé is absorbent, breathable, durable, fast drying, soft, static-free, wrinkle proof, resitant to pilling, and easy to handle.

Along with these benefits, Chito Santé has natural and durable anti-bacterial properties. Because it strongly inhibits the growth of bacteria, Chito Santé fabrics stay fresh, hygienic and odor resistant.

Chito Santé is the only anti-bacterial bio-agent in the world that is certified by the US Environmental Protection Agency. It has also received approval by authorities in Britian, China, Japan and Switzerland.
