Functional Yarn Series

Cool touch series

Cooling Yarn

Vi-Tex cooling yarn uses a cool fiber structure similar to a high-density capillary network. The structure helps absorb water molecules into the fiber core and move moisture into fabric gaps, where vapor evaporation supports the cooling effect.

This series is used for underwear fabrics, shirt fabrics, bedding fabrics, mountaineering clothing, golf clothing, leisurewear, other apparel fabrics, and home textile fabrics.

  • Main options: viscose/polyester cooling yarn, silk-blend cooling yarn, cool-touch sock yarn.
  • Typical products: summer socks, sports socks, underwear, lightweight knitwear, bedding fabrics.
  • Sample focus: touch feeling, fabric surface, washing result, yarn tension, and end-user comfort.
