Smart fabric Layer 01 · Material

Fabric that holds your skin in the cool band.

Microencapsulated PCM woven into yarn and coated onto cloth — bedding, cooling finishes, and the PanSure® climate throw. The fabric absorbs body heat at the warm threshold and buffers it back, smoothing the skin-contact temperature instead of spiking it.

01 / Why fabric feels hot

Comfort is the skin, not the room.

1. The microclimate spikes first. Long before the room feels warm, the thin layer of air between skin and fabric climbs. That microclimate — not the thermostat — is what you feel as “too hot.”

2. Ordinary fabric only insulates. It slows heat one way. It can’t absorb a surge and give it back later, so under a duvet or a jacket the heat just accumulates.

3. “Cool-touch” fades fast. Conductive cool-touch finishes feel good for a few seconds, then saturate. There’s no capacity behind the sensation.

Microencapsulated PCM gives the cloth real thermal capacity. As skin-contact temperature rises through the phase point, the capsules melt and pull heat in — holding the microclimate in a comfortable band — then re-solidify and release it once you cool. The cool-touch lasts because there’s a buffer behind it.

02 / How it's built

From capsule to cloth.

The same nano-microencapsulation platform behind our industrial materials, taken down to fibre scale — small enough to spin, soft enough to wear, sealed so it never leaks.

— 01

Microcapsule

A PCM core sealed in a robust shell down to ~300 nm. It melts and re-freezes at the comfort point without ever leaking into the fibre.

— 02

Yarn

Capsules are spun into the fibre or bonded as a finish — distributing capacity through the whole cloth, not just on the surface.

— 03

Fabric

Woven or knitted into bedding, apparel, and throws — soft hand-feel, machine-washable, with thermal buffering built into the cloth itself.

03 / Product range

Where the fabric goes.

Finished goods and OEM material, from the bed to the wardrobe.

— Bedding

Cool-touch bedding

Quilts, pillow covers, and mattress toppers that pull the warm peak off the body at sleep onset — for a cooler, steadier night without dropping the room temperature.

Quilt · pillow · topper
— Throw

PanSure® climate throw

The PCM control throw — a soft blanket with embedded latent capacity that holds a comfortable contact temperature on the sofa or in bed.

Blanket · finished good
— OEM material

Cooling finish & apparel fabric

PCM yarn and coated finishes supplied to apparel and home-textile makers — for shirts, linings, and activewear that smooth the skin microclimate.

04 / What we need to assess fit

Tell us about the product.

The more of the following you can share early, the faster we can return a useful response. None of these constitute a commitment from either side.

— Product type
Bedding / apparel / throw, finished good vs. OEM material, target user.
— Comfort target
Desired contact-temperature band, use scenario (sleep / wear / active).
— Fabric & process
Base fibre, woven / knit, spun-in vs. coated, hand-feel requirements.
— Care & durability
Wash cycles, durability target, certifications and skin-safety needs.
— Volume & format
Sample vs. roll goods vs. finished product, annual volume.
— Stage & timeline
Concept vs. line-ready, target launch, existing mill partners.
05 / Calculation tool

Estimate the latent capacity per gram.

The Thermal Sizing Tool helps estimate how much PCM loading a fabric needs to hold the skin microclimate in band for a target duration. Outputs are directional — final loading depends on wear testing.

06 / Samples & review path

From swatch to line.

We work in clearly-bounded stages. No stage commits the next. Each produces something you can use internally — even if you don’t proceed with us.

— 01

Product brief submitted

You share product type, comfort target, base fabric, and care needs. We return a written fit assessment within ~5 business days.

— 02

Material & loading selection

Joint review of phase point, capsule loading, and spun-in vs. coated integration — with predicted contact-temperature performance.

— 03

Swatch & wear sample

Material swatches and a representative product sample, tested for contact temperature, hand-feel, and wash durability.

— 04

Line validation

Pre-production run reviewed against the sample data. Decisions to scale into a line are made on measured evidence.
