Primaloft Insulation Temperature Mode. Primaloft® advanced insulation

PRIMALOFT® filler - designed in such a way as to be warm in wet or dry state, it also absorbs less than the amount of water, rather than analog fillers. If you compare Primaloft® with Pup, then in softness and comfort, it is not inferior to him. At the same time, Primaloft® has less technical restrictions when used in wet conditions.

Primaloft® One.

Primaloft One is one of the best insulation (insulating) materials.

Ultra thin fibers are specially processed using patented technologies and then gluing, forming an incredibly soft, lightweight and moisture protection insulation.

Primaloft absorbs 3 times less water, 14% warmer in a dry state and 24% warmer in wet, compared with other materials.

The human body has a normal temperature of 36.6 degrees Celsius, but often cold weather conditions cause a decrease in normal body temperature! Primaloft provides thermal insulation of your body so that you can be warm and comfortable even in extreme cold conditions.

Primaloft® Sport

Primaloft® Sport is a high-quality insulation.

The technology with which PRIMALOFT® SPORT is made, combines ultra-thin fibers and fibers with a variable diameter to achieve special characteristics. Specially treated ultra-thin fibers provide the formation of a waterproof structure, while the fibers of the variable diameter helps to form material.

If you spend the weekend in nature, Primaloft Sport will allow you to feel comfortable, as if you are at home, even if it becomes wet.

PRIMALOFT® GOLD INSULATION DOWN BEND

PRIMALOFT® GOLD is an extremely warm synthetic insulation, the main advantage of which is, its ability to maintain heat even in wet state.

Fill Power 750 - high-quality, lightweight, goose down. Provides excellent heat conservation. But, as you know, in wet conditions, the fluff loses its ability to keep heat. Just, this significant disadvantage that very many people scares, eliminate synthetic fibers. Primaloft fibers are equally distributed as much as possible in a new insulation. They are not arranged separately. They are part of the fluff. Due to this fluff gets maximum protection against moisture and retains its traditional qualities - ease and softness.

Primaloft® Gold Insulation Down Blend will dry 4 times faster and dials 10 times slower moisture than the fluff in its pure form.

Originally designed to equip the US Army, Primaloft insulation today is used by many brands. The company offers several variations of thermal insulation, from the maximum intended for harsh conditions, to a lightweight - for the city. The North Face one of the first drew attention to Primaloft Black technology. This is a waterproof synthetic alternative to a down filler. It is easy enough and suitable for casual wear, jackets and boots. The insulation also often uses the Helly Hansen brand.

PRIMALOFT BLACK

Primaloft manufactures microfiber synthetic insulation since the 1980s. Isolation is designed to imitate all the properties of the fluff, but have a smaller weight, volume and not lose their properties during wetting. Fibers do not hold water, so the owner of such equipment remains in dryness and warmth regardless of the weather. The essence of technology in creating a set of air pockets, which actually delay and maintain heat of the body.

Primaloft has three main types of insulation: GOLD, SILVER and BLACK. And if the first and second more relates to serious equipment for harsh conditions, the latter is applicable in everyday life.

Primaloft Black is most suitable for clothes for every day. It has a CLO 0.65 rating. This is a unit of measuring the thermal insulation properties of the product. For example, in a down filler with an indicator 550 rating will be 0.7. That is, the jacket with Primaloft Black is equivalent to a warm down jacket.

There are three types of black insulation. All of them are distinguished by breathable properties, resistant to moisture and provide heat without excess weight.

Primaloft Black Insulation Eco - Lining made of 60% recycled material. It is obtained as a result of recycling plastic bottles, packages and other raw materials.

PRIMALOFT BLACK DOWN BEND It consists of 50% of synthetic fibers and 50% fluff. Due to this, the loss of heat-insulating properties during wetting is minimized, but the jacket is obtained more voluminous due to the fluff.

Primaloft Black Insulation Hi-Loft With fibers that provide high insulation, similar to the sensations with a down filler, but it is not. Insulation is more compact and soft, with all key properties, such as heat during wetting, are fully stored.

For the New Winter Season, the company announced Primaloft® Black Insulation Thermoplume. It is made using small silky beams of fibers that are combined together. This filler is suitable as an intermediate layer for climbing equipment, as well as for warm urban jackets.

PRIMALOFT Black clothes

The North Face brand, known for its collections of warm and reliable clothes, is quite often resorted to the use of synthetic filler. Their jackets are ease, but at the same time they retain heat in cold and wet weather. When choosing the outerwear should pay attention to the specified characteristics. The North Face Primaloft Black uses indicators mainly in 60, 80 and 100 grams. Of course, more often is encountered a more popular "silver" insulation, as it is equally good for active recreation and city. It is placed in the iconic back to Berkeley shoes and many jackets. However, Primaloft Black is even easier and is used in demi-season clothing during the period when winter is replaced by spring or warm autumn goes into frost.

The synthetic insulation was developed by Albany International for the order of the US Army as a high-quality fence in a fluff for overalls and. To date, Primaloft insulation reliably conquered the market not only army clothing, but outdoor market.

First of all, Primaloft © light and durable insulation, and also has excellent insulating properties. In addition, PRIMALOFT perfectly passes air, and its hygiene properties are much superior to the properties of the usual goose fluff. Such excellent results were obtained by the thermal properties of the new primaloft microfiber, whose structure was copied with a goose fluff microfiber. So the thermal resistance in the goose fluff is 2.18, and for the insulation PRIMALOFT - 2.15, which indicates the best thermal insulation of the synthetic insulation compared to the Pooh. Such indicators did not approach no widely used synthetic insulation.

The primaloft insulation is perfect as a filler for the outerwear or a bedroom, as it has a low weight and volume compared with the bulk. Compared to the goose Pup, the primaloft insulation has water-repellent properties and hypoallergen.
Albany International researchers also achieved the excellent properties of the "breathiness" of the insulation due to microscopic aircrafts. On the surface of PRIMALOFT microfolocone, due to their very small sizes, air molecules accumulate, which provide high thermal insulation properties of the insulation with a relatively thin insulating layer. Thanks to these hollow fibers of large diameter and the so-called "loft" remains with long use, washing, compression and drying.

The Outdoor industry uses two varieties of primaloft insulation:

Primaloft © One.;
Primaloft® Sport.

Primaloft © One.

Insulation Primaloft © One is most often used as insulation, both for urban clothing and for outdoor activities. In the production of insulation PRIMALOFT © ONE, ultra-thin microfiber are used, which allow to maintain thermal insulation properties of the insulation at low weight and volume. Thermal insulation properties of Primaloft © One in a dry form are 0.92 CLO / OZ / YD2, and in wet - 0.9 CLO / OZ / YD2 (the heat insulation indicator is the higher, the higher the thermal insulation characteristic of the material). It is Primaloft © one that retains the greatest heat insulation and practically does not lose it in the wet state. It protects against wind and dries faster than goose down.

The most detailed information

Filler for clothing and equipment Primaloft meets high consumer requirements, because it is guaranteed protects against cold and does not allow discomfort due to the characteristics of the structure. The material is used for insulation of jackets, suits, overalls for autumn and winter, and also applied in the production of blankets.

Description

When developing fiber for insulation, Primaloft was used advanced technologies that allowed to bring the filler characteristics to the properties of a natural fluff. Material fibers are waterproof treatment, so the insulation is primaloft optimally suitable for autumn clothes, which does not swell under small rain and wet snow.

When processing fibers are woker, and easy, but reliably protecting material from dampness and cold. Compared to its analogues, Primaloft is 14-15% warmer with dry fibers and 24-25% protects more reliable from the cold in a wet state, while the water absorption of the filler is 300% less compared to competitors in the insulation market.

If you trust the miser digits of testing, then the filler PRIMALOFT has a CCC 2.15, and the standard among insulation, goose down, 2,18. This is the minimum possible difference and such numbers do not show any other synthetic materials for clothing insulation.

Benefits

The advantages of the insulation of this brand before competitors are obvious, here are the main of them:

Quickly restores the volume due to the long-fiber structure,
It is not deformed when sock of outerwear,
Has elevated water repellent qualities,
Differs high heat protection properties,
Meets environmental standards,
Passes air.

Clothing with insulation Primaloft perfectly "sits" on the figure and does not change the shapes in the socks process, and the blankets with the filler are not knocked down and the human body is well. Winter jacket with Primaloft insulation will reliably protect from the whims of winter and will not turn into a shapeless bag after several months of socks, and the blanket will retain the heat of the body and will not create discomfort, which can cause insomnia.

Compliance with environmental standards allows the use of a filler for the insulation of children's clothing, as well as top wardrobe and blankets for people suffering from allergies. Blankets, jackets and suits Primaloft literally breathe, while maintaining high heat protection properties.

The softness of the insulation corresponds to the softness of the goose fluff and is 20-50% superior to other synthetic analogues. If the material is squeezed, it will restore the form in 100% in a few minutes. This is achieved due to the elasticity of the fibers and the characteristics of the structure of their weave. Silicone processing of the fiber does not allow the material to delay moisture, which means that the beneficier does not create a beneficial medium for breeding bacteria. Compared to the filler produced under the Thinsulate Liteloft brand, PL1 Primaloft holds at 1200-1300% less moisture.

Classification

Insulation Primaloft is released:

Sport,
Infinity
Yarn.

The most common brand One, in which the fibers have waterproof treatment. This type of filler is used for all types of outerwear, filling blankets, sleeping bags, gloves, and even shoe insulation. Sport brand is used for sports costumes (professional sports, active leisure). The fibers have an alternating diameter, so the insulation is distinguished by a long term of use and an elevated level of thermal protection.

Eco brand is a compliance with hard environmental standards, and Yarn is the most soft synthetic filler for clothes, the softness of which is achieved by the minimum thickness of the fibers.

Care

Bed bag care requirements, costumes and other clothing with PRIMALOFT filler are standard for synthetic insulation. For machine wash, choose a delicate mode at temperatures up to 40 degrees. The spin is possible only on minimal drum revolutions, excipating and dry cleaning are prohibited.

It is possible to iron products with insulation, but with a minimum heating of the iron and without direct contact with the filler (through the upper fabric).
