Cifra, an Italian company renowned for its production of Warp Knit Seamless (WKS™) apparel, presented its new “Thermo Project” collection at ISPO Munich in February. Made with WKS™ technology, the experimental seam-free apparel line generates high interest. The garments feature a blend of 44% THERMOLITE® technology to keep the wearer warm, quick drying properties, as well as 10% LYCRA® fiber to deliver lasting comfort and fit to keep the wearer moving freely.

Increasingly, consumers are demanding more from their socks. They want performance benefits that help socks dry quickly, keep feet warm, and are light enough to keep them moving freely. In response, The LYCRA Company launches new THERMOLITE® FAR INFRARED technology to help knitters, brands and retailers meet this growing need for high-tech features in everyday socks.

The LYCRA Company brought something special to January’s Outdoor Retailer + Snow Show in Denver, Colorado. Two prominent Asian suppliers of synthetic thermal insulation – Ziran Non-Woven and Shinih Enterprise – presented commercially available insulation padding incorporating THERMOLITE® T3 EcoMade technology.
