Teijin Frontier Co Ltd, the Teijin Group's fibre and products converting company, has announced that it has developed a new line in the Deltapeak series, a two-in-one sweat-suit fabric that combines water-repelling and sweat-absorbing property, for autumn/winter 2019. The new fabric is based on 4 dimensional bulky Deltapeak that was launched in 2017.

Existing sweat-suit fabrics are already used widely for sports outerwear, but there is demand for extra-functional materials that are more stretchable, sweat-absorbent, quick-drying and lightweight. The new Deltapeak fabric offers a unique combination of water-repellence for outer surfaces and water-absorbency for inner surfaces. This next-generation sweat-suit fabric repels light rain and mud as well as prevents sweat stains—a two-in-one blend of outer-surface water repellence and inner-surface water absorbency—for superior all-around comfort.

Teijin Frontier’s versatile new fabric also tolerates repeated washing thanks to its kneaded water-repellent yarn and advanced micro-crimping.

The core features of 4-dimensional bulky Deltapeak include lightweight and useful bulkiness; soft touch and luxurious appearance, high cushioning, resiliency and elasticity for comfort; and low drape with beautiful shape.

Teijin Frontier expects to combine its new fabric with other multifunctional materials for enhanced sportswear, fashionwear, uniforms and more. In addition, an eco-friendly version combined with fluorine-free water-repellent polyester fibre and recycled polyester fibre is now under development, said the company in a press release.

Annual sales are expected to reach 200,000 meters by the fiscal year ending in March 2021. (KD)
