ADVANSA is committed to quality and innovation and is continuously investing in research and development.ADVANSA combines excellent technology with a thorough understanding of the end user’s wants and needs. This approach results in meaningful, innovative and ecological products – ADVANSA Thermo Cool, Climarelle and the Suprelle family - that perform to the most stringent product and brand evaluation and consideration of consumers in Asia and offer a true performance advantage to the end users.
ADVANSA Thermo Cool is made with a unique fibre mix with a hollow core along with fibres with a channelled surface. Fabrics for bedding are able to provide dual-functionality which is superior moisture management and temperature control to keep sleepers at a comfortable temperature. ADVANSA Thermo Cool technology incorporates both evaporative cooling and thermobuffering functions: Evaporative cooling is essential for comfort and helps the body to stay in its Comfort Zone. The fibres are designed with increased surface area and multi-channels to transport moisture faster away than other materials. The hollow fibres allow enhanced air circulation and focus energy on the evaporation process to achieve maximum evaporative cooling.
Hollow void yarns in the fabric provide a lightweight material with thermobuffering properties, capturing the air, thus becoming a natural insulator and helping to create a barrier between the outside and the inside. It will help the user to be more warm and comfortable. Meeting the demands of an eco-conscious market, ADVANSA Thermo Cool is alsoavailable in an ECO version using a polymer made from renewable resources.
Climarelle is a high-tech brand bringing thermo-regulation to the complete range of bedding, sleeping bags and insulated apparel. The Phase Change Material (mPCM) microcapsules integrated within the Climarelle become fluid with a cooling effect when temperature is higher than ideal. When body temperature falls again, the microcapsules change phase from liquid to solid, releasing heat energy to the body and helping it to keep warm despite lower temperatures. Thus, thermo-regulating microcapsules store warmth actively and release it only when necessary, providing a balanced sleeping temperature all night long.
Suprelle Memory is an ergonomic, but not preformed pillow with pressure-relieving qualities similar to viscose foam. The fibre produces this viscoelastic effect, which ensures that the pillow is continually adapting to the movements of head and neck without restricting the sleeper’s freedom of movement, thus allowing the muscles to relax properly. The effective moisture management and breathability of the filling material and covering avoid sweating and provide a good microclimate and a special comfortable support all night long. Suprelle Memory pillow has an outstanding softness thanks to its extremely short-cut micro denier fibres.
Suprelle FRESH with TENCEL is the eco-friendly innovation in bedding concept specially designed to improve moisture management and air circulation in mattress ticking for a balanced micro-climate which is essential for a good night’s sleep. The combination of two complementary fibres – TENCEL and Suprelle FRESH – offers an effective solution to problems of night-sweats. Mattress ticking made of Suprelle FRESH with TENCEL allow permanent moisture wicking and excellent air circulation thereby providing a superior breathability and quick drying. The natural and soft touch of the fabric gives the consumer an additional optimal feeling and comfort and contributes to a significantly relaxing and restful sleep.
Suprelle Ultra contains extremely fine, anti-dustmite and anti-microbial four-hole fibre technology that is selected for the filling of this product, resulting in an unmatched softness and excellent durability for a maximum comfort while maintaining the shape and firmness. Suprelle Micro’s outstanding micro fibre technology has been designed to match the unique characteristics of real down. It offers an excellent thermal insulation in duvets and soft, supportive comfort in pillows, with its ability to return to its original shape. The unique softness of Suprelle Micro comes from its ultra fine and short fibres and allows a perfect balance between comfort and technical performance.
Suprelle ExtraLife with its premium fibre filling for fresh and durable comfort provides moisture management fine-tuned to perfection. Thanks to the advanced 3-dimensional helicoidal fibre Suprelle ExtraLife gives superior resilience with a long lasting performance in all mattress applications.
