Performance Yarns

L2 Performance Filament Yarn

 

General Description

 

Litrax L2 Filament Yarns are designed for the sportswear, homewear, athletic and underwear. Fabrics made of L2 fibers or yarns have high insulation properties (up to 3.2 clo), rapid warming effects from +4°C. to over 27.8°Celsius depending on blend and quality. In summers, functional textiles on the basis of L2 filament yarns provide excellent moisture absorbtion, temperature regulation, sweat loss thanks to the filament geometry and the unique properties and high porousity of organic particle additives in the compound. L2 containing bodywear does not stick on the body, feels soft, warm in winters and dry on body in summers. This yarn is truly excellent for athletic and performance wear. A combination with L5 yarns provides further functions and enhances enduring sports performance significantly.
