Cool Touch

Pulls heat away the instant fabric meets skin — a real difference in how a garment feels in subtropical heat. Three routes deliver it: high-conductivity yarns, an endothermic finish, and open structures that keep air moving. Each suits a different kind of product

How it works

Heat moves on contact

Cooling comes down to how fast heat moves from skin into cloth. High-conductivity fibres carry heat away quickly, and a smooth, dense face increases the contact area — together they produce the drop you feel the moment the fabric lands on skin. A second route is endothermic: xylitol printed on the back of the fabric absorbs heat as it dissolves in sweat, so it switches on only once you are working, and gets stronger as you get hotter. A third is structure — open hexagonal mesh keeps air moving across the skin, cooling by ventilation rather than conduction

Performance Profile

Evidence-led proof points explain what this material technology delivers. Values depend on construction and verified testing.

01 Instant Heat Transfer

Instant Heat Transfer

High-conductivity yarns and a smooth, dense face carry heat away the moment the fabric meets skin. This is the cooling you feel immediately — no sweat required, no breeze required. It registers in the first second a garment goes on, which makes it the easiest to demonstrate in a fitting

02 Open-Structure Ventilation

Open-Structure Ventilation

Open structures such as hexagonal mesh keep air moving across the skin and carry warm air out of the next-to-skin layer. This route works by ventilation rather than conduction, which is why it tells most in still, humid conditions, and why it suits pieces worn against the skin all day
