"The medical industry has long known the benefits of charcoal as an odor absorbing media. Charcoal is used for filtering liquids and gases from their harmful elements. Activated charcoal fabric is the latest technology in gaseous odor absorbency. It actually has the carbon imbedded into the fabric. Then when the textile is formed it is in every part of the structure. Other carbon types are less effective. Granular charcoal is granules of carbon. They can be displaced so the entire structure is not active. Or if the granules are secured with adhesive then the surface area is not totally active because the adhesive will cover the granule."
Activated charcoal cloth was originally developed by the British Chemical Defense Establishment. It is originally thought to filter toxic gasses and vapors present in chemical warfare. This is why this material is a really efficient filter for decontamination for both water and air. Activated charcoal technology comes in a flexible fabric. This textile is extremely effective in removing odors due to its micro-porous character.
