Thermoregulation and moisture management
Whilst undergoing heavy activity a body generates
additional metabolic heat. Perspiration is produced
as part of the natural mechanism for the dispersion
of that heat.
Clothing absorbs this perspiration and can act as
a barrier to heat and moisture loss. If overheating
is to be avoided, thermoregulation and moisture
management are key functions of clothing designed
for use in working environments. When activity
decreases, body heat will be taken away from the
body surface and the moisture evaporates from the
wet clothing. The body gets cold. Through effective
thermoregulation and moisture management a
clothing system can maximise heat loss when the
wearer is doing heavy activity and then increase
thermal insulation when perspiration stops.
Fresh & dry
Features Fresh & dry
» Excellent wicking properties: absorbs sweat from
the skin quickly and transports it to the outer of
the textile to evaporate. So perspiration is not
accumulated and the skin stays dry.
» Breathable.
» Integrates comfort of cotton and quick drying
performance of Polyester.
» Hygienic & no odour: maintains freshness by
eliminating odour causing germs.
» Flat stitchings.
» Easy wash and care
Warm & dry
Features Warm & dry
» Very good thermal insulating properties: the
special crosssection of VILOFT® hi-tech fibres
permits the formation of considerably more air
pockets in the yarn which insulate against cold.
» Very soft, airy, light feeling guaranteeing
outstanding wearer comfort.
» Good wicking: moisture is transported away from
the skin and released to the outside through the
fabric, leaving the wearer’s skin feeling dry and
comfortable.
» VILOFT® fibres are 100% natural and bio
degradable: made from eucalyptus wood pulp
from managed plantations.
