Experience the Benefits of COPPER-Infused Pillows, Masks and Slips
Why put our COPPER technology into our enVy™ Pillows, Face Masks, Sleep Masks and Pillow Slips?
➣ Improved skin health at it is scientifically proven to enhance skin tone and texture
➣ Speeds tissue healing and repair by decreasing free radical damage and reducing inflammation
➣ Starts killing germs on contact (including superbugs, MRSA, and dust-mites).
➣ When it comes to our COPPER pillow, the side you sleep on is always the COOL side because our enVy COPPER fibres make sure your body heat is naturally pulled away from your face and neck for a cooling effect that prevents overheating while you sleep.
enVy's state-of-the-art Copper technology is a process that
allows copper to be easily infused and bonded onto natural fabrics using
a highly engineered atomic-level chemical modification of copper. The technology deeply infuses and distributes copper ions into the DNA of the fibre, sub-fibre and strands of fabric with complete coverage for enhanced anti-microbial activation. Anti-microbial Copper provides a second line of defence against microbes in addition to routine sanitizing and good hygienic practices.

THE 3 AMAZING THINGS COPPER CAN DO....
1. COPPER Promotes Elastin + Collagen and Skin Regeneration
As we age, we all know how our poor skin becomes wrinkled and literally more rigid. We lose that wonderful firmness, elasticity, tone, texture, skin depth, flexibility, and dewy moisture we took for granted in our youth. *Warning: some technical jargon to follow*. The main changes in our skin occur in our dermal Extracellular Matrix (ECM), which is made up of collagen fibers (which provide strength and structure) and elastin (which provides elasticity and resilience).
Collagen and elastin are secreted mostly by fibroblasts. As we age, there is a reduction in elastin and collagen production by dermal fibroblasts, and the result is a breakdown of the collagen and elastin fibers forming the ECM.
COPPER is one of the 9 minerals that are essential for humans; it plays a crucial role in all human tissues—this includes the SKIN ! There’s no denying the incredible copper benefits for skin. Recent clinical studies published in the Journal of Dermatology demonstrated that continued exposure to copper oxide-embedded textiles, (such as our pillowcase/liner) significantly reduces depth of facial wrinkles and skin sagging and enhances skin elasticity and general wellbeing. This alone is our motivation to offer the benefits of Copper in many of our enVy™ products by infusing the powerful ions directly into the fabric matrix of our pillow liner, masks or pillow slips.

2. COPPER Kills Bacteria, inactivates Viruses or Fungi, Dust mites and SUPERBUGS (including MRSA)
COPPER is a potent and natural germ-killing superhero! Its biocidal properties have been used for centuries around the world. Both gram positive and gram negative bacteria, including superbugs such as MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staph Aureus) and the Coronavirus as well as resistant bacterial spores, fungi, viruses, allergy causing dust-mites are destroyed when exposed to COPPER.
Copper’s toxicity to microorganisms include direct contact killing and/or rendering them helpless by exposure to released copper ions…. kind of like ‘kryptonite’. The damage occurs at the microorganisms’ microbial envelope, intracellular proteins, and nucleic acids (but you knew that already). The microorganisms cannot deal with exposure to high concentrations of copper and are irreversibly damaged and eradicated.
The enVy Pillow Company is excited to be part of the new trend offering the benefits of copper in many of our pillows and products. Our COPPER-infused ion technology is directly infused into our specialized TENCELⓇ fabric under our pillowcases, in our masks and pillow slips. Endowing the enVy fibres with this potent broad-spectrum anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal and anti-mite properties creates essentially a self cleaning pillow product. Our COPPER pillows and other products are permanently powered by NatuVerex™, which continually kills any sketchy organisms you may have inadvertently brought to bed with you (on your skin or hair)!
SUPERBUG KILL Study : →
We conducted our own 3rd party Lab Testing… because we like to see these claims for ourselves. So, we placed MRSA on our pillowcases with the Copper infused TENCEL® liner lovingly placed underneath. Within the first hour the bacteria was reported as an 85% KILL . After 24 hours, the bacteria was 99.9% eradicated. *That’s 99.9% more than any other pillow around! Check out the results attached.
Further studies have shown COPPER alloy eradicates viruses such as the Norovirus, C Difficile, E. Coli and Coronavirus.
DUST MITE KILL Study: →
A study published in the “Journal of Pest Management” in the use of fabrics containing copper demonstrates the ability in reducing house dust mite populations (Dermatophagoides farinae) and thus, reducing the load of dust mite allergens. Using 3 variations of fabric, one with no copper, one with a small amount of Copper and a third with 2% copper. The Dust mite kill was fast and thorough with the 2% fabric. NOTE: Our Copper fabric has 100% complete Copper coverage and is permanently infused into the natural fibres.
So if you’ve been sick in bed, forgot to shower, or you just sweat like a piglet, our enVy COPPER-infused pillows will have your back, neck, and head. They support your spine while destroying all the bad guys!

This Therapeutic Super “Clean Sleep” Pillow is a MUST HAVE after invasive and non-invasive procedures and as part of your acne and rosacea battle. Our COPPER Ion technology is powered by NatuVerex™. The TENCELⓇ Liner under our pillowcase is permanently infused with this COPPER Ion technology and is available in our enVy COPPER line of pillows (enVy™ COPPER + Bamboo , enVy™ COPPER + SILK , enVy™ TOGO with COPPER and our new Latex pillow, Green with enVy™ + COPPER. The same technology is used in our enVy™ Face Masks, enVy™ Sleep Masks and enVy™ Slip covers.
The TENCEL® fabric we use to infuse the COPPER into, is a branded Lyocell fibre of Botanic (raw wood) origin. Lensing® (the makers of TENCEL) uses an eco-friendly system that employs a closed loop production process to eliminate any chemicals entering our environment. When TENCEL® is used in production, the textiles are naturally more absorbent than cotton, softer than silk, and cooler than linen.
We are proud to offer you both a clean night’s sleep AND a green night’s sleep that feels good, and that you can feel good about. TENCEL® provides the peace of mind that we use sustainably sourced fabrics that consume as few resources from the earth as possible.

3. COPPER’s Anti-Oxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects
Human skin is not sensitive to COPPER. It is readily metabolized and utilized by the body. Skin heals from the “inside out.” Copper helps this process by healing from the “outside in,” and it may be beneficial in the healing of cosmetic procedures, cuts, wounds, and even hard-to-treat skin pathologies.
COPPER’s anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects can promote and literally speed up wound healing. Additionally, it has been shown to aid in the treatment of scarring. COPPER is an essential mineral that plays a key role in many physiological and metabolic processes, including angiogenesis and skin generation. *Angiogenesis is the development of new blood vessels… new blood vessels mean more oxygen supply. Plus, as discussed earlier about COPPER’S antimicrobial benefits, it has potent wide spectrum biocidal properties. The combination of these two distinct actions makes COPPER a vital necessity for the improvement of our skin’s health and well-being.
COPPER has been used for many years in the treatment of pain and inflammation, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis, as it assists in blocking the production and release of chemicals that cause pain and inflammation. The Bonus: The wonderful benefits of enVy's Copper is that it is a non-steroidal and natural anti-inflammatory agent.
*Data taken from an NBCI article, “Using Copper to Improve the Well-Being of the Skin” by Gadi Barkow. Published 2014.
Infusing COPPER directly into fabrics and textiles allows applications beyond what we could imagine. Placing these specialized fabrics close to our skin provides amazing positive effects. From accelerated healing of infections, repair of broken skin and open wounds, OR simply reducing fine lines and wrinkles, the benefits of copper pillows and products are astounding! The enVy Pillow is a ‘must have’ after any procedure — from injectables, laser resurfacing, post plastic surgery or eye treatments and blepharitis. And of course, a great adjunct to the treatment of acne and rosacea. We are thrilled to introduce the benefits of copper in enVy Pillow.
The introduction of COPPER ion technology into an ordinary product such as the pillow we sleep on will transform it to an extraordinary pillow — the enVy Pillow.
