Different fibres and knitting techniques ensure this, depending on the type of sport and intensity. OUR STRENGTH In the beginning there is the idea and the desired function. To achieve this, we look for the optimum yarn / fibre and knit it in such a way that it also works optimally on the product. Because only if a functional yarn is used and knitted correctly can it play to its strengths one hundred percent. So we don’t just sew – we knit function. transtex® One of our most important functional materials is transtex®. Its main component is polypropylene (PP) – our most important raw material, with which we have been working as specialists for 40 years. In terms of moisture absorption and sweat transport, polypropylene is the absolute king among textile fibres. POLYPROPYLENE HAS THREE MAJOR ADVANTAGES: 1. Material with the lowest moisture absorption 2. Much more odourless than other textile fibres 3. Lightest plastic fibre in the world DID YOU KNOW? Since PP absorbs almost no moisture, the yarn cannot even be dyed! In its raw state, the granulate is therefore dyed and then processed into a functional fibre. Due to the hydrophobic properties of polypropylene, no moisture can be absorbed – but it can be transported to the outside. There, sweat can evaporate quickly and a pleasantly dry feeling remains. 56 TONS POLYPROPYLENE YARN IS PROCESSED PER YEAR. The fibre is the absolute king among textile fibres. Virtually no moisture absorption by the fibre as well as the fastest transport of sweat from the skin to the outside are the most striking properties of this high-tech fibre. It is also ultra-light and heat-regulating, abrasion-resistant, easy-care and UV-resistant. 113 FOOTBALL PITCHES FABRIC PER YEAR ARE PRODUCED IN THE HOUSE AS A WHOLE. That is 150,765 kg of fabric or 603,060 running metres or around 904,590 m² per year. Calculated per week, we knit functional fabrics the size of 2.5 football pitches. LAYER PRINCIPLE This is where the layer principle proves its worth. Moisture is quickly transported from inside to outside (transtex®) Penetration of moisture from outside is prevented Several layers – depending on the temperature – allow a finely tuned temperature regulation DID YOU KNOW? Anyone who values high breathability of the outer layer (e.g. jacket) must also pay attention to good moisture transport of the underlying layers.
