TFL cool systems are based on practical physics and TFL have launched new shade. Dark colours absorb sun radiation and, therefore, heat up more strongly than light colours, which reflect up to 95% of the light energy and thus remain cooler.
The visible range of the human eye is between 400 and 700 nm (0.4-0.7mu). The spectral distribution of sunlight, however, goes far beyond that range. Humans cannot see in the UV and near infrared sector (NIR).
The TFL cool system uses this fact and works in the NIR where the absorbed light energy is transferred unto heat energy, which heats up the material and then radiates as warmth. Shades available include Roda Cool White, Dark Green, Light Blue, Light Ochre.
The TFL Colour Trends & Fashion inspirations catalogue for leather is published twice a year. The exclusive editions are available in February and September.
