Hologenix, creators of Celliant\u00ae<\/sup>, infrared responsive technology, and Kelheim Fibres, the world-leading manufacturer of viscose specialty fibers, have partnered to launch Celliant Viscose at ISPO Munich 2021. Celliant Viscose is a finalist in Best Products by ISPO and will be showcased in the Fibers & Insulations Category for ISPO Textrends, where realistic views and 3-D simulations will be available for each material.<\/strong><\/p>\n The introduction of nature-based Celliant Viscose will be the first in-fiber infrared sustainable solution on the market and meets a consumer demand for more environmentally friendly textiles. An alternative to synthetic fibers and extremely versatile, Celliant Viscose blends beautifully with cotton, micromodal, lyocell, wool varieties including cashmere. It also has many applications across industries as it is ideal for performance wear, luxury loungewear, casual wear and bedding.<\/p>\n Celliant Viscose features natural, ethically sourced minerals embedded into plant-based fibers to create infrared products that capture and convert body heat into infrared, increasing local circulation and improved cellular oxygenation. This results in stronger performance, faster recovery and better sleep.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are confident the exciting introduction of Celliant Viscose will resonate strongly with brands as well as the end consumer,\u201d said Seth Casden, Hologenix Co-Founder and CEO. \u201cIt is a sustainable infrared solution that can be integrated into everything from cotton to luxury wools and cashmere and offers myriad applications.\u201d<\/p>\n Celliant Viscose provides all the benefits of being a viscose fiber \u2014 lightweight, soft, highly breathable, excellent moisture management \u2014 as well as fiber enhancements from Celliant infrared technology. Celliant\u2019s proprietary blend of natural minerals allows textiles to capture and convert body heat into full-spectrum infrared energy, resulting in stronger performance, faster recovery and better sleep. In addition, Celliant is durable and will not wash out, lasting the useful life of the product it powers.<\/p>\n \u201cSustainable products for a healthy lifestyle and wellbeing \u2014 that\u2019s what both Hologenix and Kelheim Fibres stand for. This shared vision of the future is the sound basis for our seamless cooperation,\u201d said Dr. Marina Crnoja-Cosic, Head of New Business Development and Member of the Board at Kelheim Fibres. \u201cCombining our technological expertise and our innovative spirit, we have opened the way for an entirely new range of possible applications.\u201d<\/p>\n As opposed to other IR viscose products which are coatings based, Celliant Viscose\u2019s in-fiber solution increases wearability and longevity with a soft feel, durability from washing and longer life. The combination of Kelheim\u2019s distinctive technology and the Celliant additives creates this unique fiber that provides full functionality without the need for any additional processing step \u2014 a new standard in the field of sustainable IR viscose fibers. This single processing also makes Celliant Viscose more cost-effective and time-efficient than coatings.<\/p>\n In addition, Kelheim\u2019s flexible technology allows targeted interventions in the viscose fiber process. By modifying the fiber\u2019s dimensions or cross sections or by incorporating additives into the fiber matrix, Kelheim can precisely define the fiber\u2019s properties according to the specific needs of the end product.<\/p>\n Celliant Viscose is a plant and mineral-based solution for brands seeking an alternative to synthetic fibers. It contains natural raw materials that are from the earth and can return safely to the earth.<\/p>\n Nature-based Celliant Viscose is certified by FSC\u00ae<\/sup> or PEFC\u2122, which guarantees the origin in sustainably managed plantations, and is part of the CanopyStyle initiative to protect ancient and endangered forests. The production of Celliant Viscose takes place exclusively at the Kelheim facilities in Germany, complying with the country\u2019s strict environmental laws and guaranteeing an overall eco-friendly product.<\/p>\n Celliant is rigorously tested by a Science Advisory Board composed of experts in the fields of physics, biology, chemistry and medicine. The Science Advisory Board has overseen 10 clinical, technical and physical trials, and seven published studies that demonstrate Celliant\u2019s effectiveness and the benefits of infrared energy.<\/p>\nAn Affordable, Long-lasting Solution with Diverse Applications<\/h3>\n
