Our Technology
Safe. Effective. Pure.
What makes our MicroSilver BG™ technology so special?
To answer that, we first must venture into the world of silver for animal care products. Just as your pet came from a certain breed and pedigree, silver can come in varying degrees as well. Although your furry friend will be loved with any background, the purest silver is desired for products, including that of animal care products.
Why use pure silver?
Silver has been known for centuries for its antibacterial properties. The ions it generates helps in breaking down the defenses of unwanted microbes. The purer the silver is, the more ions it will generate and therefore be more effective in the fight against germs and bacteria.
What’s the difference between MicroSilver BG™ and colloidal and nanosilver?
This is the #1 question we receive and it’s the key reason we stand out in the market. The chart below details the main differences:
How does MicroSilver BG™ work on the skin?
Since MicroSilver BG™ particles are too large to enter the skin and are designed to have a textured porous structure, our technology sits and clings, like Velcro, to the top of the skin to fight off unwanted germs and bacteria.
Is MicroSilver BG™ safe? My pet tends to lick products placed upon them?
MicroSilver BG™ is made of 99.9% pure, elemental silver made from a physical process. That means that it safely sits on top of your skin to work.
Even if licked, it cannot penetrate into the skin or blood stream to cause unknown or adverse effects.
MicroSilver BG™ is currently being used in toothpastes and dental products globally for pets which shows that the products are safe for consumption.
