Noble Biomaterials, Inc., the global leader in bacterial management solutions and manufacturer of X-STATIC? silver fiber technology, announced the acquisition of Carolina Silver LLC, a full-service manufacturer of silver-based fabric, yarn and fiber.
Based in Maiden, North Carolina, Carolina Silver's advanced facility is located in the heart of the North American textile industry and has been offering customers a wide range of anti-bacterial and conductive technology solutions since 2003. Carolina Silver's technologies provide proprietary solutions to the wound care, military and industrial markets places under the AG3+ brand.
"Carolina Silver has been a leader within the silver textile solutions industry," said Jeff Keane, CEO of Noble Biomaterials. "Its technologies will support the growth of the X-STATIC brand in preventing infections, healing wounds and eliminating odor."

Made with 99.9% pure silver, X-STATIC? is the premier silver antimicrobial technology designed to protect products from bacteria, fungi and odor. It naturally inhibits the growth of bacteria in apparel and textiles permanently; preventing the spread of infection, healing chronic wounds and keeping athletic gear smelling fresher and lasting longer.
