The Cupron fabric in our bedding and clothing products are impregnated with copper. Copper has very potent, scientifically proven anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, and anti-odor advantages.

Copper is a naturally occurring element that has been used for centuries to disinfect liquids, solids, and human tissue. The ancient Greeks discovered the sanitizing power of copper thousands of years ago. [*] Our products use the patented Cupron Copper Technology to impregnate the fabric with copper in order to create powerful antimicrobial bedding and clothing.

Copper is effective in eliminating:

• Staph
• E.coli
• HIV-1
• Dust mites
• Athlete's foot
• and more

• Does the copper fabric feel rough?
  No. The impregnated copper does not add any roughness to the feel of the fabric. In fact, the fabric is comparable to the finest non-copper bedding you can buy.

• Does it work like the copper bracelets?
  No. Copper ions are released from our fabric when it comes in contact with the bacteria, mold, and viruses and attacks them. The copper bracelets use an entirely different mechanism.

• Does the copper wear or wash out?
  No. The copper will continue to work for the life of the product. Also, the copper has been thoroughly tested and proven to not wash out with even the very hottest commercial grade washing.

• Can you smell or taste the copper?
  No. Our copper fabrics smell and taste like other similar fabrics that do not contain copper.

• Are the copper fabrics hot?
  No. Our copper fabrics use a special wicking agent that quickly moves moisture away from your skin to the cotton backing. This keeps your skin feeling comfortable and cool.

One of the best parts of this technology is that copper is safe to humans. For example, copper has been used in intrauterine devices (IUDs) for years. In fact, you need copper in your body in order to survive. Copper is important in keeping your skin and hair in good shape, among other functions.

Is a thread count of 9000 possible? No, not with standard technology. But with our microfiber technology, the thread count is equivocally increased 10-fold. The secret is in our continuous microfibers. Instead of having to spin yarn from cotton staples that are no longer than 2 inches, our yarn is created from a continuous microfiber that is 1/10 the size of the best cotton available. That means our fabric is softer than even the finest Egyptian cotton fabric and gets softer with each washing. For more information, see -Luxury Bedding: Microfiber Thread Count (PDF).

While you sleep, the power of copper reduces the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and liver spots. No need to spend thousands on painful surgery. Use our clinically proven products to significantly improve your skin's tone and texture while you sleep.

Our bedding fabric has two layers. The layer closest to your skin is protected by the Cupron Copper Technology. It is treated with the SorbtekTM moisture wicking treatment during manufacturing to whisk the moisture away to the other layer of highly absorbent cotton. This provides an unmatched dry and comfortable sleeping surface.

Our bedding products are offered in two varieties. Woven and knit copper impregnated fabrics.

Woven sheets have been the standard for decades with probably over 90% sold being woven. Knit sheets have started to gain in popularity with the increased use of Memory Foam, latex, and gel mattresses and toppers. The knit sheets generally have 4-way stretch. This allows the sheet to conform more readily to the various weight indentions caused by the body when sleeping on these new materials, and it is able to recover and remain smooth when the body rolls or shifts.

Both the knitted and woven bed linens we offer are constructed to present the copper microfiber to the sleep surface next to the skin with the absorbent cotton on the back to keep your skin on a soft dry sleeping environment. The back has a white, bleached cotton appearance and should be placed up on the bed. The beautiful coppery tan microfiber should be place down on the bed so that your skin can enjoy the incredible softness.

All bedding products are Made and Assembled in the USA.
