This unique product developed by Mr. Mark Rothenberg, a tarnish and corrosion prevention expert with over 28 years experience in jewelry manufacturing recognized the need for an inert material that would not out-gas (release corrosive gases) like charcoal based products be non toxic, non-abrasive, temperature and humidity independent.

After seeing that Intercept Technology offered all the above, testing began with Mr. Keith Donaldson president of Engineered Material’s Incorporated to adapt and apply the Intercept Technology to a velvet fabric.

Corrosion Intercept fabric provides effective tarnish protection for non-ferrous metals such as silver, gold, brass, copper, bronze, and ferrous metals (iron based).

Intercept Technology™ does not leave deposits on items it protects and has been successfully used by major jewelry manufacturers, The British and Australian Royal Mints and many other companies worldwide. Manufacturers of silver Jewelry are turning to Intercept fabric to protect products replacing Rhodium plating that protects silver from tarnishing. This metal now runs at almost USD 1000.00 per ounce making it cost prohibitive.

Manufacturers have discovered that it is far more cost effective to use the Intercept Technology. Rhodium also has the reputation of unevenly wearing off leaving the silver item spotty and unsightly. Intercept overcomes this problem.
