Cifra, a leader in the production of warp knit seamless, will present the Thermo project with infrared rays, and Thermolite and Emana yarns by Fulgar, at the leading sports textiles expo, ISPO Munich, from February 3-6, 2019, in hall B3-112. The project is expected to start a new trail in the winter sports sector and the area of body heat management.
The collection in the project includes experimental items of clothing made with WKS technology, internationally patented by Cifra, with Thermolite yarn, and Emana by Fulgar yarn. This special combination makes it possible to obtain lightweight, insulated items that are easy to dry, guaranteeing constant warmth regardless of whatever the outside temperature may be, for greater comfort during physical exertion.
In addition to this, the technical support of Emana allows for the absorption of heat produced by the human body (thanks to the minerals contained in the fibre) to be released back into the skin in the form of far infrared rays, but it also stimulates blood micro-circulation and is instrumental in improving performance in sport activities, thereby accelerating muscle recovery and, ultimately, ensuring comfort and well-being, Fulgar said in a press release.
On the eco-sustainability front, which Cifra has always been a key player of, the Green Attitude project continues with the zero waste commitment, with an ever increasing use of ecological and regenerated yarns, such as Q-Nova by Fulgar or Econyl by Aquafil.
Q-Nova is a recycled and environmentally sustainable Nylon 6,6 fibre obtained exclusively from regenerated raw materials and produced by Fulgar, based on the criteria and requirements dictated by modern traceability systems. Q-Nova is made of waste materials coming from the company’s main production cycle. There are no other ways materials such as these can be re-used; materials which would have to be disposed of externally as waste. Q-Nova uses the innovative MCS process: a mechanical zero-regeneration, locally resourced system which does not require the use of chemical materials that would compromise the sustainability of the final product.
Econyl by Aquafil is a Nylon 6 which is made with 100 per cent completely regenerated waste materials, otherwise destined to end up in landfills or in the sea. It is a nylon thread originating from recovered plastic materials: fishing nets, nylon household carpets, industrial plastic waste, and textile waste used by the textile industry that is recovered and regenerated through a complex break down process.
