The Swiss Shield® Difference
Protection Woven into the Fabric
Unlike conventional shielding textiles based on surface-coated conductive fibres, Swiss Shield® integrates its conductive component inside a specially engineered textile.
The conductive element is protected within the textile structure and does not come into direct contact with the skin.
This creates a durable and discreet shielding solution without compromising the natural look and feel of the textile
Invisible technology. Natural comfort. Swiss precision.
Reflecting Electromagnetic Waves
When radiofrequency electromagnetic waves encounter Swiss Shield® textile, the conductive structure interacts with the electromagnetic field.
A substantial part of the incident electromagnetic energy is reflected and attenuated.
As a result, significantly less electromagnetic energy passes through the textile.
Simple principle. Sophisticated textile technology.
How Effective Is It?
Shielding effectiveness is measured in decibels (dB).
A difference that sounds small in dB can represent a very large reduction in transmitted electromagnetic energy:
10 dB 90% attenuation
20 dB 99% attenuation
30 dB 99.9% attenuation
40 dB 99.99% attenuation
The actual shielding effectiveness depends on the fabric, frequency and installation.
That is why we publish measured shielding performance for our individual Swiss Shield® textiles.
Protection You Don't Have to See
We believe shielding technology should integrate into your life – not dominate it. That is why Swiss Shield® combines measurable electromagnetic attenuation with textiles that remain lightweight, comfortable and visually discreet.
No metallic-looking textile.
No complicated technology in your daily life.
Just a textile doing something extraordinary in the background.
Comfort without Compromise
Technology should not make a textile feel technical.
Swiss Shield® fabrics are designed to remain:
- Soft and pleasant to touch
- Lightweight and breathable
- Visually discreet
- Suitable for curtains, canopies and other applications such as wearable textiles
Proven Shielding Performance for Your Well-Being
Our textiles are tested according to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, providing additional confidence for applications close to people and in sensitive living environments.
No Exposed Silver – No Discoloration
Swiss Shield® does not rely on exposed silver-plated synthetic fibres to provide its shielding effect.
The conductive component is integrated and protected within the textile. This helps avoid typical characteristics associated with exposed silver surfaces, such as oxidation-related discoloration. The textile maintains its natural appearance while the technology remains virtually invisible.
Less Plastic – More Natural Fibres
Wherever technically possible, Swiss Shield® focuses on natural textile materials and carefully selected fibres.
Our philosophy is simple: combine effective shielding with materials that feel comfortable, look natural and fit naturally into modern living spaces.
Made in Switzerland
Swiss Shield® textiles are developed and manufactured in Switzerland. For us, Swiss Made means more than a label. It represents precision, textile expertise, consistent quality and the responsibility to create products designed to perform for years.
