World renowned fabrics developers, Avelana
and Roudière, have
again revolutionised the textile market with the release of a
thermoregulating fabric made from Australian merino wool that
incorporates nanotechnology.
The woollen material keeps the wearer warm in cold weather and
warms them up when it gets cold. Known as Klimeo,
the fabric uses nanotechnology developed microcapsules grafted to the
fabric fibres. As the temperature changes, so too do the capsules. In
cold weather, the capsules contain a solid material. This material
becomes a liquid at higher temperatures. It is this phase change that
provides the temperature regulation. The tiny size of the microcapsules
means the treatment given to the fabric is invisible and does not
change the texture or look of the material - it is also fully washable
and is able to be dry cleaned.
