About Zeomic

Zeomic, developed by Sinanen Zeomic in 1984, is the first silver-based inorganic antimicrobial agent introduced globally. It has earned multiple approvals and licenses, including from the U.S. FDA, highlighting its high safety standards. We have effectively integrated Zeomic additives into hair system bases, such as skin, lace, mono, and silk, to prevent bacteriamold, and fungi growth, promoting, clean and healthy environment for wearers.

With Zeomic technology in our hair systems, customers can enjoy long-lasting freshness and protection against bacteria, ensuring their hair system stays cleaner and more comfortable for extended wear.

FAQ's

What is Zeomic?

Zeomic is a silver-based inorganic antimicrobial agent that meets all antimicrobial requirements. Launched by Sinanen Zeomic Co., Ltd. in 1984, it stands as the world’s first of its kind. Zeomic offers superior safety, durability, and heat resistance compared to organic antimicrobial agents, making it exceptionally reliable and sustainable.

With increasing focus on people’s peace of mind and safety, the functions and applications of antimicrobial agents are expanding. Zeomic, known for its exceptional antimicrobial effectiveness and high safety standards, is applied across various fields to enhance safe and comfortable living. Beyond antimicrobial properties, Zeomic also offers odor-eliminating benefits.

Zeomic’s odor-eliminating mechanisms are chemisorption and physisorption therefore once saturated it will no longer be capable of eliminating odor. However,the threshold of foul odors felt by humans is extremely low concentricity and it is believed it will take time to reach saturation,therefore thought that odor-eliminating effects will last for an extended period of time.

We believe you won’t be able to distinguish between regular hair toppers, wigs, toupees, hair extensions, and our silver-based antimicrobial hair products. Any differences in look or feel are minimal. Thanks to advancements in technology and manufacturing, silver-based antimicrobial agents are now seamlessly integrated, with careful attention to maintaining natural appearance and texture.

Yes, Zeomic is FDA-approved. This silver-based inorganic antimicrobial agent holds numerous approvals and licenses that demonstrate its high safety standards. Zeomic has proven its effectiveness across a wide range of fields that require stringent safety measures, including food packaging, quasi-drugs, cosmetics, and water purification components. Additionally, in Europe and America, Zeomic is gaining global recognition for its high safety and proven track record, especially in the development of medical devices like catheters, which demand the utmost safety.

(1) Mechanism of Antimicrobial Action of Zeomic
Zeomic’s antimicrobial action functions by disrupting the enzyme activity in the metabolic processes of microorganisms.

  1. Silver ions from Zeomic penetrate the microbial surface and are subsequently taken up by the cells through active transfer.
  2. These silver ions interact with various metabolic enzymes within the microbes’ metabolic pathways.
  3. This interaction impairs the activity of these enzymes, thereby inhibiting microbial growth.

(2) Mechanism of Odor Elimination by Zeomic
Zeomic effectively eliminates a wide variety of odors thanks to its abilities in physisorption and chemisorption. Additionally, it is noted for having low re-emission properties.

Sinanen Zeomic has various safety tests conducted by public specialized testing institutes. They have the highest level safety data.
Silver-based inorganic antimicrobial agents, when used appropriately and in controlled concentrations, are generally considered safe for most people. Silver has been used for its antimicrobial properties for centuries, and it is a common ingredient in various products like wound dressings, medical devices, and even in some water purification systems.

No. Zeomic is a fine inorganic compound which will not dissolve in water or organic solvent however it can disperse.The silver particles will be attached by dipping, spraying, or brushing.It may then undergo a curing process, which can involve heat treatment to ensure the silver particles are securely bonded to the base.Then depending on the application, a sealing or protective layer may be applied to enhance the durability and longevity of the silver coating.

Safety data on Zeomic has been obtained through conducting various tests at public specialized testing institutes both in Japan and overseas. And it is FDA approved.
