Imagine you’ve just finished an intense yoga class or a long-distance cycling session. Although you feel refreshed, your sportswear emits an unpleasant odor, and the damp feeling makes you uncomfortable. Worse still, you find that these expensive sportswear items start to lose elasticity after multiple uses and even show signs of bacterial growth. These issues not only affect your exercise experience but also make you doubt your brand choices.
Even more concerning, as a sportswear manufacturer, you may often receive similar customer feedback, facing significant challenges in improving product performance. Traditional nylon fabrics, while durable, often perform poorly in deodorizing, antibacterial, and temperature regulation aspects.
What is IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series?
IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series is a breakthrough nylon yarn that integrates multiple functional groups into the yarn structure through innovative technology. This unique process endows the yarn with several outstanding properties, making it an ideal choice for addressing long-standing pain points in the sportswear industry.
Core Advantages of IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series
Ultimate Deodorizing Capability
Utilizes patented molecular capture technology to neutralize various odor molecules produced during exercise quickly.
We use the SEK deodorization test method, a standard of the Japan Textile Evaluation Technology Council. After 2 hours of testing, the fabric achieves an average odor removal rate of over 95%.
Some marathon runners often face severe odor issues during long-distance running. Sportswear using IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series technology remains fresh even during a 48-hour non-stop marathon test, greatly enhancing athletes’ comfort and confidence.
Excellent Antibacterial Performance
The modified fiber contains a variety of functional groups such as nitrogen, acid, and heterocyclic rings, and can obtain the function of ion exchange. While absorbing water, the weak alkaline compound contained in the fiber itself will make the living environment of the bacteria maladjusted during contact with the bacteria, and also inhibit the respiration of the bacteria. Let oneself have strong antibacterial ability.
The antibacterial effect remains above 90% even after 50 wash cycles.
Some gym businesses often encounter odor and bacterial growth problems with towels provided in changing rooms. Towels made with IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series not only solve this problem but also reduce operational costs.
Ultra-Low Temperature Sensation
Innovative nano-level cooling materials perfectly fuse with nylon fibers, providing a lasting cool touch.
The heat diffusion coefficient is 40% higher than ordinary nylon, effectively reducing skin surface temperature by 2-3°C.
In hot summers, outdoor sports enthusiasts often feel uncomfortable due to high temperatures. Quick-dry T-shirts using IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series fabric showed that wearers’ perceived temperature was reduced by an average of 2.5°C compared to other T-shirts during a 2-hour outdoor running test in a 35°C high-temperature environment, significantly improving exercise comfort.
Super Anti-UV performance
Due to the addition of special anti-UV nano-powders into nylon yarn, the clothing made of this yarn naturally possesses an anti-UV function, with an anti-UV effect reaching UPF50+. Therefore, it is extremely beneficial for sports underwear, especially for outdoor sports bras.
Ultimate skin-care experience
The moisture content of ordinary nylon is about 4%, polyester is 0.2%, cotton is 8%, viscose, Tencel and Modal are 13%, while the moisture content of this four-in-one cooling nylon we have developed is 9%. Therefore, it offers an ultimate skin-friendly experience and is highly suitable for our daily underwear.
Intelligent Moisture Management
Unique dual-layer fiber structure design, with the inner layer quickly absorbing sweat and the outer layer accelerating evaporation.
50% faster water absorption and 30% faster evaporation compared to ordinary nylon.
During high-intensity exercise, it can maintain a fabric weight increase not exceeding 5% of its own weight.
Professional tennis players often have their performance affected by sweat accumulation during long matches. Tennis wear using IcSnow® CLEANMAX Series technology remained dry throughout a 2-hour high-intensity match simulation test, helping athletes maintain optimal condition.
