Wundervoll uses Advansa’s Biophyl
Berlin-based lingerie label Wundervoll has launched a new spring-summer 2010 collection featuring Advansa’s Biophyl.
According to the company, the new range is designed for the fashion-conscious woman, who sets a high value on quality, design and classy materials.
The Biophyl fabrics are said to offer a soft hand, easy care and good stretch and recovery qualities. According to Advansa, a pronounced kink in the polymer’s molecular structure is the key to its ability to offer these benefits. It absorbs less moisture than polyamide does, dries quickly, repels dirt and is very durable.
Other benefits include UV/chlorine resistance, ironability and certification according to the Oeko-Tex Standard 100.
Furthermore, the glycol used in standard polyester, which is generally petrol-based, is replaced with Bio-PDO, which is obtained from corn sucrose. More than a third of the polymer (37%) used in Biophyl consists of renewable raw material.
