Technofine® Finish—Sweat Without Wet
Technofine® is a high-tech polyester yarn that has a specially designed "W" shape when viewed in cross section. The overlap of the "W" shape speeds up a fabric's ability to transport water away from your skin. Its increased surface area increases the evaporation rate so Technofine® garments are quick-drying. Uncomfortable perspiration is rapidly absorbed and you remain drier and more comfortable than with other polyesters. Technofine® yarns are available in numerous fabrications, including knits, meshes, jerseys, wovens, yard-dyed wovens and tricots.

Technofine® Knits and Wovens Tech Specs:
Water Absorption Speed (Byreck Method): 11 cm in 10 minutes
Drying Speed: 36 minutes from 100% moisture content to 0% moisture content

Care:
Technofine® can be machine washed and dried at warm temperatures.

Technofine® Knits and Wovens Applications:
Linings for high-tech outerwear

Travel clothing

EKS Finish—A Fiber that Generates Heat
Existing fibers used for cold weather wear/gear try to preserve body heat by simply insulating with their bulk. EKS fibers go beyond heat preservation to HEAT GENERATION. EKS is based on an advanced fiber design concept where the interaction of moisture absorption by the fiber actually creates heat while speeding moisture transport. EKS Yarn is ideal for knitted winter undergarments where rapid moisture absorption and warmth really count.

The EKS finish can also be applied as a powder to polyester fabrics. Our powder finish maintains the unique EKS moisture transport and superior wicking function while generating less heat—ideal for keeping you incredibly dry in summer heat.
