Glossary term
Microcurrent garment
A garment that uses distributed low-intensity electrical current across its surface to deliver function — humidity management, microstatic pulse, or heating.
Definition
Microcurrent apparel uses very low-amperage, low-voltage circuits across the garment surface to achieve its function.
The approach minimises power draw while maximising surface-area coverage.
Why it matters to DSEAMS
Penanos Active Surface uses microcurrent technology across the membrane film to manage humidity and moisture in e-heater clothing.
