European brands choose Thermocool

Exactly one year after launching at ispo Winter 2008, many leading sports and outdoor brands are already incorporating Advansa’s Thermocool thermo regulating fibre into their collections, which are on show at ispo Winter 09 this week, the company said today.
Born out of the experience and years of study on human thermoregulation from the privileged platform of profiled cross section products, Thermocool consists of a unique blend of fibres inside the yarns that interact with the wearer. The hybrid fibre mix provides dual functionality. Firstly, when the user is hot and perspiring, the fabric provides evaporative cooling, keeping the user cool and comfortable. Secondly, when the user is cold and shivering, the fabric reduces the exposure impact with external temperatures, keeping the user warm and thermo regulated. Advansa says that, for customers concerned about the environment, Thermocool is also available in an ECO version that uses a polymer made from renewable resources, instead of traditional petrochemical derivates. In the case of Thermocool the renewable resource is corn.
