BETI Partners with OPTIMER BRANDS to revolutionize Functional Yarns with DRICOMFORT GEO 365
We at BETI d.o.o. are very excited to announce our new strategic partnership with Optimer® Brands, the creator of DRICOMFORT® GEO 365. Their mineral infused technology enhances moisture management and thermoregulation in textiles. This collaboration represents a major step forward in our goal to develop high-performance functional yarns that enhance comfort, breathability and efficiency in textiles. Providing brands in sportswear, medical wear, fashion and intimate apparel with a new way to improve comfort, breathability and sustainability in their designs.
DRICOMFORT® has been at the front of innovative textile treatments, offering technology that enhances the hydrophilic properties of fabrics, allowing them to absorb and wick moisture more effectively. This creates a cooling effect by accelerating evaporation, making it an ideal solution for sportswear and other performance-oriented textiles.
Until now this treatment has only been applied to already woven or knitted fabrics. But we at BETI have successfully integrated this advanced technology directly into the yarn production process. This is a huge breakthrough for us and for the textile industry as it ensures that the cooling, moisture-wicking and a quick-drying properties are embedded in the very core of the fabric, offering long-lasting performance benefits that do not wash out over time.
Game Changer for Functional Yarns
By incorporating DRICOMFORTs technology at the yarn level we are redefining what is possible in textile performance. Unlike conventional treatments that wear off with use and washing, our innovation ensures that the functional properties remain intact for the entire lifespan of the garment. This means superior comfort, better moisture management and an overall enhanced wearing experience for consumers.
For brands and manufacturers looking to integrate high-performance materials into their products, this new approach presents a significant advantage. Our method not only enhances the functionality of the textiles but also makes the production process more efficient and sustainable.
The Key Benefits:
- Permanent moisture management: the yarns hydrophilic nature ensures that moisture is quickly drawn away from the body and evaporates faster, making your clothes more comfortable and less clingy.
- Cooling effect: The enhanced evaporation process naturally regulates temperature, making garments feel cooler and more comfortable, all seasons of the year.
- Long lasting performance: unlike surface treatments, our yarn integrated technology ensures that moisture wicking and cooling effects remain effective over time, even after multiple washes. That’s because during the dyeing of the yarn the innovative technology is added to guarantee that the minerals get locked into the polymer with the colour, which makes the wicking inherent to the fabric and it doesn’t change with wash or wear.
- Sustainability: Our yarns are produced with environmentally responsible dyeing practices. And by incorporating the treatment directly into the yarn we reduce the need for additional chemical finishing processes making the finished product even more environmentally friendly.
Looking Ahead
This partnership is a huge milestone. We are incredibly proud to cooperate with DRICOMFORT® GEO working together to integrate our innovation into a wide range of applications.
Moving forward we are committed to further enhancing our functional yarns and exploring new ways to improve textile performance. This is just the beginning of an exciting new chapter in textile innovation and we can’t wait to see how our yarns will be used to create the next-generation performance apparel.
