10/02/2015
German sportswear brand CEP has chosen Emana yarn from Rhodia Fibras (part of the Solvay Group) for its autumn-winter 2015-2016 Active Thermo Base Tights.

CEP has described the baselayer tights as “virtually imperceptible”, while still offering a high levels of support and thanks to Emana, improved blood flow.

Emana is a polyamide-based smart yarn with far infrared technology that transforms heat from the wearer’s body into energy. Thanks to bioactive minerals embedded in the yarn, Emana absorbs heat from the body and emanates far infrared rays back to the skin, stimulating blood flow.

Rhodia Fibras business development manager, Daniela Antunes, said on announcing the development: “CEP and Emana share the same mission: pushing the performance parameters as far as possible to achieve excellence.”
