• The new Klimeo process involves the
application of a treatment to pure or mixed
wool fabrics and is ideal for traditional woven
textile markets, and is beneficial for knitwear
used in active outdoor and sports markets, as
well as other next-to-skin applications.

Ayurvastra is based on the principle of touch. By
coming in contact with the cloth, the body loses
toxins and the metabolism is enhanced. The cloth
that has been permeated with special herbs and oils
is believed to help cure a wide range of ailments.It
would help restore the balance in the body and
strengthen the immune system. The most effective
time to wear Ayurvastra is while sleeping or
meditating.

 Fabric and protection
• Odour eaters
• Relegating body odour to the history books is
just the tip of where fabrics are heading in the
beauty stakes. Microencapsulation
technology, which allows a whole swathe of
substances including aloe vera, vitamins or
insect repellents to be added to the fabric, is
creating endless possibilities.
 Uv protecting fabrics
• Sun protection zone announces Rayosan®
Fabric Treatment for SunSkinzTM Apparel
• Rayosan ® is a coating that, when applied to
fabric, acts as a mirror deflecting UVA and UVB
rays. This deflective quality strengthens
fabric’s ability to block harmful UV rays for the
skin without altering the color, resilience, or
lightweight breathability.
 Fabric and health
• microencapsulated fabrics
•
Microencapsulation is a simple process consisting of
encapsulating liquid or solid substances in sealed micro
spheres. These micro spheres which vary in size between 0.5
and 2000 microns, form a suspension of tiny droplets
surrounded by a thin polymeric wall protecting the active agent
before it is released. This wall or membrane is made by
emulsion or dispersion of a natural or synthetic polymer in a
carrier liquid. These microcapsules gradually release active
agents by simple mechanical rubbing which ruptures the
membrane.

woven fabric, they “relieve the pain without
the shame”
