Phaseable®
- Develped by Sympatex Technologies, this composite material provides functionality during low activity. The 3D foam dots on the membrane act as spacers to the skin and gives increased heat insulation through air chambers between 3D foam dots. During High activity and reduced heat insulation, increased perspiration removal and breathability due to membrane expansion. The benefits offer smart climate control through dynamic heat insulation. Phaseable is as durable as a 3 layer laminate, but is as lightweight as a 2 layer laminate.
The fabric is comfortable, 100% waterproof (20.000 mm), breathable, 100% windproof, 100% solvent free, and uses an ecological coating process. Reduced carbon footprint is achieved through 100% EU production.

Polartec® Delta
- Developed by Polartec, LLC, POLARTEC® DELTA™ WAS CREATED
SO COOLING FABRIC TECHNOLOGIES COULD
BETTER UTILIZE THE BODY'S NATURAL COOLING PROCESS —
SWEAT. Next-to-skin fabrics that target wicking and fast drying
will keep moisture moving, but don't work towards actually cooling
the body down. Delta™ works more efficiently by elevating touch-
points for increased airflow, faster moisture dispersal, and reduced
wet-cling. Delta's specialized knit construction uses both
hydrophobic and
hydrophilic yarns for more advanced control of moisture dispersal.
These patentpending
radiating knit structures keep you cooler in hot conditions by
increasing airflow to dissipate heat.

Polygiene®
- Polygiene prevents the growth of odor-causing bacteria and
fungi at the source, permanently. To do this Polygiene uses low
concentrations of silver salt (silver chloride), which has
antimicrobial properties and is naturally present in water and
soil, to safely eliminate the ability for bacteria and fungi to grow.
The permanent treatment is applied at the finishing stages of
textile production and odor control is possible as the technology
is bound and permanently integrated in the fabric and will not
wash out. Polygiene silver salt technology is only active on the
textiles itself and with a heritage in the healthcare sector
Polygiene has applied its expertise and testing to ensure that
there is no effect on the natural bacterial flora of the skin.
Polygiene is not nanosilver.
