Nanobionic® technology is a soft coating comprised of a blend of minerals, that is applied to any type of fabric, developed to increase energy, every day performance, and enhance wellness for better recovery.

The FDA has determined that Nanobionic products are medical devices, as defined in section 201(h) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, and are also General Wellness products.
