PYRATEX® Freshness

These uniquely soft, comfortable fabrics have anti bacterial, antiperspirant and thermo-regulating properties, as well as a superior breathability.

They are made with a OEKO-TEX certified bamboo cellulose fiber grown in China, in its entirety or blended with seaweed fiber as is the case of PYRATEX® freshness II.

There are over 700 bamboo species in the world, but only CI-BAMBOO can be made into textile bamboo fiber: it is grown organically, without chemical pesticides, in the Sichuan province.

Bamboo is 100% biodegradable and can grow as much as 3 feet overnight, making it a fast growing, renewable resource.

Because the cross-section of the bamboo fiber is filled with various micro-gaps and micro-holes, garments made from Bamboo are 1 – 2ºC lower than others, and can rapidly absorb and evaporate sweat.
