SleepCharge
SleepCharge a new brand, focuses on enhancing sleep performance. The brand is charged by Nanobionic and was launched on November 15 exclusively in Walmart stores nationwide. SleepCharge utilises Nanobionic’s far-infrared, patented technology in its fabric applications to enhance and recycle the body’s energy. This technology has been backed by scientific demonstrations that ultimately stimulates local blood flow and as characterized by the FDA, provides for the overall general wellness of being. As a result, the new SleepCharge performance bedding ensures a much better sleeping experience to enhanced recovery and a much better overall sleeping experience.
The newly launched collection includes the mattress, pillow protector, mattress pad, sheet set and a comforter. Additional launches that support the mattress will soon be available for purchase.
Nanobionic is a soft coating made of far-infrared emitting minerals that are compatible to be applied to any type of surface, such as clothing, bedding, foam, leather or textile product. The minerals in the coating get activated with body heat. The heat acts like energy emitted by the body and is returned back that enhances the energy. This acts as a real source of usable and recyclable energy. The energy that returns increases the blood flow allowing the body to enhance recovery, improve athletic performance and promote more restful sleep. The company has also procured NASA’s coveted iTech award for best product innovation.
Far infrared is more emissive than infrared and offers 90% storage efficiency of energy. Keeping in the natural blend of the material it is highly emissive and works up to three inches away from your body. Nanobionic is sourced ethically to make the proprietary formula. Once the formula is isolated and the minerals are mixed, everything is then melted into a liquid form. After which the liquid mineral compound is applied directly to the fabrics and textiles. The same is used to make SleepCharge products.
