How the Towels Work
Decontamination towels combine texturing with a special formulation
for dislodging, capturing, and removing metals adhered to skin. The 7 x 9-inch
engineered towels provide mechanical removal while the special formulation
cleanses, adjusts pH, and chelates toxic metals. The CDC has proven this
combination
more effective than soap and water or other wipe methods. Full Disclosure
