Revolutionizing cotton
H
ouston, Texas-based Fibre52™ says it has developed a patent-pending
technology to revolutionize the way cotton is prepared and dyed.
According to the company, the process substantially minimizes the use
of water and energy and eliminates harsh chemicals, while also offering a more
durable and vastly improved natural-performance cotton fiber to rival synthetics.
" Fibre52's patent-pending technology combines the comfort of cotton with
strength properties and moisture-management performance much better than
poly-anything does, so you can be comfortable in a wider range of temperatures, "
says Fibre52 president Laura Thornquist.
" This inexpensive, eco-friendly alternative technology is easily transferable,
allowing textile manufacturers to utilize current machinery with no additional
capital investments and repeatable in resultant coloration and shade of material
with no need to change dye recipes. "
The company says by using its dye technology, the cotton retains its natural
properties and allows moisture to be transferred away from the skin, as opposed
to the normal clingy feel of cotton.
According to the company, its cotton serves as a smart moisture and thermal
regulator, forming a layer of dry air next to the skin and ranking it high on the
comfort scale.
In independent tests, Fibre52 ranked high for dynamic cooling and drying rates,
and received high marks for low pilling and improved tear strength.
Fibre52 cotton provides a steady heat flux and a short drying time, proving the
wearer would feel more comfortable in hot and cold temperatures due to the slow
change of the microclimate.
