Odor Control: Three Permanent Fuctions
Odor Control: Three Permanent Fuctions
The Taiwanese textile company Singtex has similar idea of tuning coffee waste and recycled plastic
bottle into fabric. It collects used coffee grounds, which lead to reduce to microscopic particles
and combine with a polyester fiber made from discarded plastic bottles. To make one T-shirt, it
needs three cups of coffee grounds and five recycled plastic bottles.
How to produce?
First, polyester is manufactured with recycled plastic bottles and roasted coffee grounds are mixed
in the polyester to create coffee yarn. This coffee yarn turns into fabric and end up with being
functional clothes.
Odor control
S. Café® coffee grounds eliminate odors from your body throughout the day. Since the coffee
grounds are contained inside the S. Café® yarn, so they are not easily washed off from S.
Café® garments. This feature will last quite long.
Fast Drying
For faster drying process, S.Café® fabrics continually move moisture away from the skin to
the outer surface of the fabric. Moisture transfers from the skin to the outer layer of the
S.Café® fabric and it spreads across the surface area. The fast drying function is permanent,
never washed out. offers up to 200% faster drying time compared to cotton.
UV protection
S. Café® garments reflect UV due to the numerous microscopic pores
made by coffee grounds. This microscopic pores create a long-lasting
natural and chemical free shield.
- Multilayer insulation
- eco²sy® multilayer insulation technology created from recycled plastic
bottles and used coffee grounds. This breakthrough produces a layer of
breathable, warm, windproof, waterproof, and odor control material for a
variety of uses.
-
- Sustainability means everything
- Built entirely from recycled plastic bottles and discarded coffee yarns,
everything that is used to make the eco²sy® layer can be recycled and
used again giving it another life. So you can put your mind at ease
about your impact on the environment when you wear your jacket made
with eco²sy® insulation.
