Skintex is a sophisticated micro-encapsulation technology that allows clothes to
be treated with mostly naturally derived
ingredients, providing high cosmetic performance with a broad range of proven effects like
cooling, moisturizing, energizing, or anti-cellulite.
Cyclofresh Plus allows manufacturers to treat textiles with long-lasting protection from unpleasant body odor by a dual mechanism of two natural based ingredients: circular sugar
molecules and silver ions. It is particularly suited for use in first layer-garments.
Belfasun is the first nanotechnology-based UV protection for cotton fabrics that even work
under the circumstances when textiles get
wet or stretched. The formula is based on
nano zinc oxide particles, which are recognized for its skin care properties.

Daniel Hechter is a leading European lifestyle brand and stands for ambitious sportiness,
that combines an attractive look with professional understanding. Daniel Hechter will appear with their nanosphere collection and bring new products on the market. The nanosphere textile technology is based on a mimicry effect: the so called lotus flower effect.
Water and dirt drips off from a specially structured surface on the leaves. A comparable
surface structure is guaranteed on the fabric surface due to the nano particles. These tiny
particles produce a natural self-cleaning effect on the fabric. Water and dirt have no chance
to penetrate. The jackets preserve this feature even after a longer wearing period and
multiple washing cycles.

The NanoSphere jacket by Daniel Hechter uses the
natural lotus flower effect on textiles to take up the
fight against stain. The application is easy, the effect
is remarquable: On Textiles that have been finished
with the new nanoSphere technology by Schoeller, water and even perinacious substances
like coffee, salad dressings, ketchup or ink are dripped off easily from the surface. If stain
doesn`t come off easily, a rinse off with water is sufficient to clear the textile surface. This
jacket is available in specialized stores with immediate effect.

The brand O’Neill was born in the cold waves of Northern California, when a young man
called Jack O’Neill, who was passionate about surfing, developed skills to brave mother
nature. In 1952 he was pioneering with his first neoprene wetsuit and this was the beginning of his first Santa Cruz Surf Shop. Although things have changed since these modest
beginnings, Jacks’s first vision to produce functional and innovative tools for boardriding,
has still remained the core impetus of all his activities. Since his first neoprene wetsuit in
1952 and the first seamless boardshort to a series of wearable electronics, the fire of innovation is still burning deep inside and boosting him. O’Neill showcases jackets, backpacks
and gloves of the h4 collection with features like an integrated camera, MP3 control and

as ketchup are dripped off easily from the surface of textiles finished with the NanoSpheretechnology (www.nano-sphere.ch) from Schoeller. Rinsing off with a little bit of water
takes away the dirt particles that don’t come off easily. A special technology developed by

Everybody is familiar with the fact that during a long
and intensive sun exposure a respective protection is
mandatory. For persons with delicate skin protection
via sun crème is not sufficient. As far as babies and
small children are converned, sun protection via
certified garments goes without saying, but how to protect adults? How much protection
do normal garments offer? Garments from Seidel Moden provide UV protection by using
certified materials, a special sewing process and unique design solutions for fashion and
sports like roll-up sleeves and hood design versions.
