SAFE an innovative Antibacterial and Antiviral Treatment for Sewing Threads totally Made in Italy

Manifattura Italiana Cucirini SPA, an Italian company specialising in the development of innovative yarns with low environmental impact, for fashion, leather, footwear and furniture sectors, has implemented special sewing threads for personal protective equipment, particularly masks, to contribute to the Covid-19 emergency.

The company has invited other companies in Italy and abroad to express their needs for this type of thread and in some cases MIC decided to donate it for free.

Thanks to this experience and to the know-how in the field, in order to fulfil the demand of security and safety in the apparel industry, MIC Spa has developed a new treatment called SAFE that makes the sewing threads especially suitable for all sectors demanding protection, hygiene and odour-controlling properties, including the production of medical supplies like masks, gowns, and PPE, technical textiles and sportswear.

SAFE is guaranteed to resist to over 20 washings, following the garment’s wash instructions utilizing a PH-neutral detergent for delicate garments.
SAFE treatment is compatible with all fibers – synthetic, artificial and natural – and it can be combined perfectly with other MIC treatments (i.e. water repellent PFC-free), without altering the characteristics and solidity of the treated sewing threads.

*This treatment is performed with SANITIZER® (certified by Bluesign® and derma approved by Allergy UK), a disinfecting product that thanks to its properties can reduce the antibacterial and viral load up to 99%.

Manifattura Italiana Cucirini SPA

MIC treated sewing threads are tested and approved according to international standards ASTM G21 (antifungal) and JIS L 1902 (antibacterial). Threads antiviral properties are tested in independent laboratories, therefore the final product in which SAFE-treated yarn has been used must necessarily be certified and authorized according to current regulations in order to be placed on the market as a medical service.

About MIC Spa

The Cumerlato family’s adventure in textiles began in 1911 in the Vicenza area with a wadding factory and then continued in 1976 with the creation of the Manifattura Italiana Cucirini for the production of thread for the clothing industry.

With a growing international presence, particularly in Europe and North Africa, the group subsequently specialized in the leather, footwear and furniture industry, expanding its range and offering items with special characteristics for sectors whose uniqueness requires specific solutions.

Quality and sustainability are an integral part of MIC’s mission, which boasts Oeko-Tex 100 certifications and complies with the REACH specifications, cutting-edge production and logistics with low environmental impact.
