Invista unveils “next generation” of Lycra Sport technology
11/08/2016
The “next generation” combines the traditional stretch technology of Lycra with more demanding testing standards to measure the performance of the fabric. Invista has developed three indices to measure compression, comfort and the energy needed to move the fabric.
“Increasingly, athletes and active consumers desire sport-specific garments designed to help optimize their athletic performance but with a high degree of comfort,” said Huw Williams, global segment director for activewear and outdoor.
“Lycra Sport technology makes it easier than ever for mills, brands and retailers to meet these specific consumer needs,” he added.
