GuardION® Material
GuardION® is Fabrifoam’s advanced far infrared therapeutic material, engineered to support comfort, recovery, and non-invasive care through the integration of Far Infrared (FIR), anions, and silver. By combining these proven technologies into a medical-grade foam-fabric composite, GuardION® delivers a new approach to therapeutic support that goes beyond traditional compression materials.
This innovative material is designed to enhance the body’s natural healing processes while maintaining the comfort, breathability, and durability expected from Fabrifoam materials.
What Is GuardION® Used For?
GuardION® is used in medical and therapeutic applications where recovery support, comfort, and antimicrobial performance are essential. Common uses include:
- Compression and support devices for healing and recovery
- Therapeutic wraps designed to reduce discomfort and inflammation
- Medical products requiring antimicrobial properties
- Applications where non-invasive support is preferred
As an healing and recovery compression material, GuardION® supports both short-term therapy and extended use applications.
How Does GuardION® Work?
Far Infrared (FIR)
Far Infrared is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and penetrates the skin to emit safe, therapeutic infrared rays. These rays help stimulate blood flow, improve oxygenation, and support natural healing processes. FIR is widely recognized for its ability to energize the body from within and promote overall wellness.
Anion Technology
Anions are negatively charged ions found naturally in the environment. Their antimicrobial characteristics help suppress bacteria and mold growth while supporting overall comfort and hygiene in therapeutic products.
Silver Infusion
Silver components are incorporated into GuardION® materials to provide additional antimicrobial protection. This helps enhance cleanliness and durability in medical environments where hygiene is critical.
Independent lab testing confirms that these combined technologies can:
- Enhance blood flow and oxygenation
- Reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation
- Accelerate the natural healing process
- Suppress bacteria and mold growth
How Is GuardION® Made?
Fabric Layer
A brushed nylon-spandex knitted blend designed for comfort and flexibility. The hook-receptive surface allows for easy adjustability and secure fastening. Multiple fabric options are available with varying stretch capabilities to support different applications
Foam Layer
Fabrifoam’s proprietary open-cell foam formulation infused with the GuardION® additive. This layer provides a high coefficient of friction for slip resistance while remaining breathable, moisture-wicking, and extremely comfortable for direct skin contact.
Together, these layers form an antimicrobial foam fabric that supports healing while maintaining user comfort.
Is GuardION® Reusable?
Yes. GuardION® is washable and reusable, retaining its therapeutic and compression properties through repeated use. Its durable construction supports long-term applications while maintaining performance and comfort.
Is GuardION® Safe for Skin Contact?
Absolutely. GuardION® is latex-free, neoprene-free, and adhesive-free, making it safe for prolonged skin contact, including sensitive or compromised skin. Its breathable, open-cell foam helps reduce moisture buildup while maintaining comfort and secure positioning.
What Makes GuardION® Different From Other Fabrifoam Materials?
GuardION® is unique within the Fabrifoam material family because it integrates therapeutic technologies directly into the material structure.
- Compared to standard Fabrifoam materials, GuardION® adds FIR, anions, and silver for enhanced recovery and antimicrobial benefits.
- Compared to compression-only materials, GuardION® supports healing and wellness beyond physical support alone.
This makes GuardION® the preferred anion infused medical material for advanced therapeutic applications.
