The fabric used for LIOD garments is completely different from other fabrics that can be found on the market: in fact, it is processed in several stages, so as to make it softer and more insulating, thus enhancing its already excellent thermoregulation properties.
This process, impossible to use on products with discontinuous yarn, such as Meraklon (commercial name given by Enimont for their PP discontinuous yarn product) may increase the final cost, but it makes an unparalleled fabric.
LIOD uses for its garments only continuous yarn which is formed by numerous thin “burrs”, has a constant diameter and therefore does not share the drawbacks of discontinuous yarn.
This allows for the realization of lightweight fabrics which can be processed in a second step, which would be impossible to perform with discontinuous yarn.
Fabrics made in this way DO NOT PRESENT the phenomenon of PILLING or of felting.
It is for this, and also for the considerable experience both inherited and accumulated over time, that LIOD products are unique in their field.
Anyone who encounters a LIOD garment for the first time is amazed and astounded by the fact that a fabric so light can have such elevated technical characteristics.
LIOD technical garments are unmatched by others and are the only produced entirely by the same company in ITALY: FROM THE FABRIC TO THE FINISHED GARMENT – ALL ITALIAN PRODUCTION CHAIN.
What are the main properties of LIOD garments?
ANALLERGIC: for those who have allergies (or skin disease such as psoriasis), they will find the different sensation of LIOD garments.
ECOLOGICAL FIBER: the production doesn’t cause pollution, neither chemical, neither thermal. LIOD has been also granted of “Ecological product prize of Lombardy Region” in 2000, beacause of its respect for nature and environment.
HIGH RESISTANT to breakage and elongation, qualities that remain unchanged even when wet, unlike with other fibers.
THERMAL INSULATION (WARMTH): wonderful characteristic of this product! It keeps your body always warm (as wool), but in a weightless material (three times less than wool).
Even during activities you will remain dry, thanks to its waterproof quality that carry out sweat.
OTHER QUALITIES:
- DOES NOT lose the original colour (it will remain the same bright colour!)
- does NOT create pilling, it is very resistant
- we guarantee its duration for 2 years but it has a much longer duration, up to 20-25 years, if properly cared
