Nominee | Textiles | 2005
biomimetisme Gewebe
This recently developed, ultra-light and extremely thin high-tech fabric clings to the body like a second skin. With the help of NanoSphere®, it offers protection not only against wind and weather – it will also repel water and dirt. The lightest soft shell in the world is further notable for its breathing properties, transparency and elasticity. Last but not least, NanoSphere® conforms to bluesign®, the strictest standard for safety, health and the environment. It is suited to the manufacture of alpine sports clothing, but can also be used for regular sports clothing or casual wear.
Comments of the nominators
This fabric really is like a second skin. Both visually and in terms of feel, it lives up to the comfort it promises. A convincing synthesis of technology, function and aesthetics.
