How EMF Defense Works
Maximum Guard's Anti Radiation Sticker uses a layered mineral design, built to sit directly on the devices you use most, day in and day out. Rather than trying to block a device's signal outright, which would interfere with the phone calls, WiFi, and apps you rely on, the sticker is engineered to work alongside your device's normal function. Here's a closer look at how each layer plays a role, and why the design is built the way it is.
1. Radiation Protection Film
The outer layer forms the first line of contact between your device and the sticker, designed to sit between the emission point and your hand, ear, or lap. This film is thin enough that it doesn't add noticeable bulk, and it's positioned to be the layer your skin or case actually touches, so it stays in place through daily handling, temperature changes, and repeated use.
2. Negative Ion Film
This layer is engineered to help balance the energy given off by your device during normal use. Negative ion technology has a long history in consumer wellness products, and Maximum Guard incorporates it as one part of a broader, multi-layer approach rather than relying on any single material to do all the work.
3. Shungite Anti-Radiation Chip
Shungite is a naturally occurring, carbon-rich mineral long associated with electromagnetic balancing, and it forms the core of the sticker's design. Found primarily in one region of Russia, shungite has been used in wellness and design products for years because of its unusual composition. In the Maximum Guard sticker, it sits at the center of the layered design, anchoring the other materials around it.
4. Secure 3M Adhesive
A medical-grade 3M adhesive keeps the sticker firmly in place on the back of your device, case, or charging port area, with no residue and no damage on removal. This is the same class of adhesive used in medical and skincare applications, chosen specifically so the sticker can stay applied for the life of the device without leaving marks behind if it's ever removed.
Peel, Stick, Done
There's no charging, syncing, or app required to use a Maximum Guard sticker. Apply it once and it works continuously in the background for the life of the device, with nothing further to remember or maintain. That's a deliberate part of the design: most people don't want another gadget to charge or another app to check, so the sticker is built to be a one-time step that then fades into the background of daily use.
Where to Apply It
For best results, place the sticker on the back of your phone, tablet, or laptop, close to the antenna or camera module, or on the housing of your router. These are generally the areas where a device's wireless components are concentrated, which is why placement close to them is recommended over placing the sticker somewhere else on the device.
Every device is shaped a little differently, so exact placement can vary. See our device-specific guides for exact placement tips for phones, tablets, laptops, routers, and wearables, including notes on avoiding ports, vents, and camera lenses so the sticker stays out of the way of normal use.
Why a Layered Design, Not a Single Material
Some EMF products on the market rely on a single material, whether that's a shielding fabric, a metal mesh, or one mineral alone, and ask you to build your understanding of the product around that one component. Maximum Guard takes a different approach by combining four distinct layers, each doing a specific job, rather than asking one material to do everything. That layered structure is part of why the sticker can stay so thin while still incorporating multiple design elements, from the outer protection film down to the adhesive that holds it in place.

Built to Disappear Into Daily Use
A product that requires daily attention tends to get used inconsistently, which is part of why the sticker is built around a single application rather than an ongoing routine. Once it's pressed into place, there's nothing to remember: no toggle to switch on, no light to check, no battery indicator to monitor. It's designed to become part of the device itself, sitting quietly in the background for as long as you own it.
