At the level of professional sports, our products may just tip the scales. In recreational athletics, they greatly contribute to biking enjoyment – License to win!
NANOTECHNOLOGYExtreme water and dirt repellent surfaces thanks to ultra thin self-assembling layers (see page 20-22).
CARBON APPROVEDProducts with this seal are also suitable for painted, undamaged carbon surfaces. LOTus-HYBRiD-mATRixDirt rolls off the surface thanks to the unique surface texture, based on the principle of the lotus plant (see page 13).

LEfT Conventional functional clothing, e.g. micro-fibre fabrics are
hydrophobic (water repellent) and hardly absorb the sweat.
The body is covered in a film of sweat and cools down considerably
when playing sports.
RIghT The fabric absorbs the sweat from the body and carries it out
and away.
