Freudenberg presents a hybrid revolution for insulation

Outdoor sports are particularly challenging at this time of year: it's cold, windy and occasionally wet. But it's not just the athletes who get pushed to their limits. The appropriate sportswear must also meet an increasing range of demands to deliver excellent thermal insulation with sufficient breathability and maximum freedom of movement. Freudenberg has developed the right product for precisely this challenge: introducing comfortemp® FLEXX, a hybrid innovation in the outdoor sports sector.

Breathability even at high levels of activity

comfortemp® FLEXX is able to deliver optimal warmth properties along with maximum breathability, even during intense activity, thanks to an innovative process that combines lightweight voluminous nonwovens with warp knit technology. The very soft and light padding adapts itself precisely to the wearer’s movements and level of activity, while preventing hot spots and overheating. During low-movement activities or at rest, the padding protects the athlete from cooling down. The adaptive insulation is furthermore extremely durable and compliant with the OEKO-TEX standard. As a result, comfortemp® FLEXX meets the particularly high demands placed on clothing for sports and outdoor activities.

Consistent quality, easy processing

The innovative processing of the padding with reinforcing threads prevents fiber migration through the outer fabric, and it is available by the meter. For the industry, this means less time and lower processing costs. For the end customer, it means no cold bridges will form at the seams.
