AVIRO was founded in Aotearoa, New Zealand with a mission to create innovative everyday garments that help prevent the spread of dangerous germs through textile surfaces.
Committed to offering effective and safe products to consumers, AVIRO is a family owned business with years of experience both in the clothing industry and with working in healthcare. The secret ingredient in AVIRO garments is HeiQ Viroblock - a new Swiss developed technology designed to inhibit the presence and growth of bacteria and enveloped viruses, such as coronavirus and influenza.
At its heart, AVIRO hopes to do its part in helping safeguard the health of your family.— Founder: Jamie Hunt

What measures have AVIRO taken internally to reduce the spread of COVID-19?
We are taking strict measures to keep both you and our distribution team safe when sending out orders. Here are some of the steps we have in place to protect our community and yours:
- Firstly, our team is wearing AVIRO clothing and masks while working.
- All surfaces are regularly wiped down with disinfectant.
- Hands are washed regularly.
- We’ve reduced our courier pick-ups to once per day.
Are AVIRO garments/ face masks washable?
We recommend washing after approximately 20 hours of use or if it gets visibly dirty. Wash in gentle wash in laundry bag in 30℃ and below. Light detergent & no fabric softener. Offering a sustainable alternative to single use face masks.
Can I wash my garments/ face masks more than 15 times?
The fabric and construction of the mask is highly durable and should last more than 15 washes (300 hours of wear).
Can I wash my AVIRO clothes with my other clothing?
Yes
How does HeiQ Viroblock work?
Did you know textiles and clothing can provide a large hosting surface for viruses and bacteria? Treating fabric with HeiQ Viroblock creates a protective antiviral and antibacterial layer. This protective layer attracts pathogens and targets the membrane or coating surrounding the pathogen. The pathogen is exposed and deactivated, reducing the risk of contamination or re-transmission.
You can read more about HeiQ Viroblock on our Technology page.
Is the HeiQ Viroblock treatment safe on skin?
Yes. HeiQ Viroblock has been dermatologically tested and is harmless to skin.
