It is well known that down’s main „down” fall is
its poor performance once it gets wet.
Loses its insulating properties when wet and is
slow to dry.
When down becomes wet, it will actualy loose up
to 80% of its insulating ability. Takes a long time
to dry out again.
When down becomes wet, the surface tension of
the water causes the down to collapse and it no
longer can hold as much air. The air is what
insulates.
NANO TREATED DOWN
- Nanometer particles protect down
permanently against wet
- Not agglomerated after washing
- Quick dry keep the fullness and warmth
- Anti-microbial activity
REGULAR DOWN
- Lost of heat retention when it gets wet
- Agglomerated after laundry
- Long time to dry after washing
- Moisture create unpleasant moldy, musty odors
- Mites causes allergies
REVOLUTION IN THE DOWN AND FEATHER INDUSTRY
- NANO technology has been
developed over a four year program.
- After repeated trial and error testing,
this application starts to introduce
2011

- After washing 15 min is 28% dry
- After washing 30 min is 41.9% dry
- 350.000 microorganisms/g
- Test result shows NO detection of PFOA and PFOS
REGULAR DOWN
- After washing 15 min is 7.2% dry
- After washing 30 min is 12.6% dry
- 210.000.000 microorganisms/g
