DriRelease® PINEAPPLE
- The latest blend from Optimer Brands which uses farm waste to
optimize comfort in all types of apparel. This engineered blend
combines natural hydrophilic fibers made from pineapple leaves
with special hydrophobic synthetic fibers for optimized
performance. drirelease® PINEAPPLE fabrics efficiently pull
moisture and perspiration away from the skin and pushes it to the
exterior of the fabric where it can evaporate quickly, without the
use of wicking finishes. After the fruit harvest, Pineapple leaves
are typically burned as waste releasing more pollutants into the air.
As part of the drirelease® technology, these leaves can now
release all day comfort instead. Turning pineapple waste into
sustainable textile materials helps to promote a more circular
alternative for enhancing comfort in apparel.
