PrimaLoft introduces most technical insulation ever
Insulation specialist PrimaLoft has developed a new range, UltraPeak, presented as the warmest insulation it has ever made. The high loft and super soft filler is made from a blend of “architectural” fibres and microfibres that create a “scaffolding effect” that traps more air and thus increases the insulation’s thermal performance by 5%, the company said.
The new reference is made from 100% recycled polyester (from bottles), and produced using PrimaLoft’s lower impact P.U.R.E. process. UltraPeak comes in the form of batting, a shift away from the current trend for loose fill solutions. Batting is generally easier to use and allows for greater manufacturing efficiency, the company said.
The new UltraPeak range will be on show at Performance Days next week, and is expected to be present in commercial ranges in the 2027. PrimaLoft is also preparing to reveal new developments in polyester recycled from waste textiles. Andrea Paulson, the company’s head of innovation and technology, will be presenting PrimaLoft’s new textile-to-textile technology platform on Wednesday, October 29 at 3 pm (The Ingredients of Change: How T2T Recycling Will Redefine the Apparel Industry).
