New external tests conducted in the Internationally Accredited ATCCR Testing Laboratory show that Sonovia's fabric, imbedded with zinc oxide nano-particles, has a strong antiviral effect which successfully neutralizes 99.35% of COVID-19, even after 55 wash cycles.

Israeli start-up Sonovia Ltd. engineered a unique reusable mask with antiviral properties that lasts over a year. In the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, Sonovia applied its anti-microbial technology, developed in 2013, to a line of reusable ,dual-layered, face masks that destroys bacteria, fungi, and neutralizes COVID-19 . Relative to its competitors, the SonoMask offers superior protection, reusability, and comfort.*

Proven to neutralize COVID-19

Sonovia’s Sonomask has undergone external laboratory tests, which successfully corroborated that its unique and permanent fabric impregnation of Zinc oxide nano-particles have a strong antiviral effect that successfully deactivates 99.35% of COVID-19 particles even after 55 wash cycles. The list of labs that conducted the test include European Union Authorized laboratory Hygcen of Austria, and Israeli accredited laboratory Taryag labs.

Sonovia's ultrasound-based technology uses a process called cavitation, which durably coats the individual textile fibers with its carefully engineered proprietary solutions.  This ensures the fabrics stay protective for longer and allows them to be reusable and washable. Moreover, Sonovia's technology uses 50% less chemicals and 100% less chemicals binders than the current method of fabric finishing. Sonovia's fabrics have also undergone test corroborating it's zinc-coating is nontoxic to both humans and the environment.

The generation of sound waves of precise-frequency acting upon a dedicated factory system media creates cavitation bubbles of high pressure & temperature extremes, resulting in the genesis of our carefully calibrated nano-particles.  When the cavitation bubbles implode, jet-streams are created that force the nano-particles into the textile surfaces at very high speeds and densities for permanent fixation.
