Nylon yarns for thermoregulation and moisture management
For extreme moisture management, lightness and thermal comfort
XTRA‑COMFORT: Thermoregulation and Comfort Integrated into the Fibre
The comfort of a technical garment begins with fibre geometry. XTRA‑COMFORT is NUREL’s range of filament yarns specifically designed to enhance moisture management, thermoregulation and thermal insulation in technical fabrics.
Available in nylon 6 and nylon 6.6, these fibres modify their internal structure to optimise the interaction between the fabric, air circulation and moisture transport.
By altering the physical shape of the yarn rather than applying chemical treatments, these functional properties become permanent features of the fibre structure.
Our range is divided into three textile engineering solutions: XTRA‑DRY, XTRA‑COOL and XTRA‑THERMIC.
XTRA‑DRY: Fast drying and enhanced comfort sensation
XTRA‑DRY is designed to enhance moisture transport and drying efficiency. Its main objective is to reduce the sensation of dampness during sports activity, while maintaining the highest standards of comfort.
Exclusive geometry: features a unique helical cross‑section design that enables rapid evaporation of moisture and sweat.
Superior absorption: achieves a 62% increase in moisture absorption.
Breathability: increases air circulation through the fabric.
Permanent performance: provides long‑lasting moisture control and drying performance, inherently built into the fibre.
Availability: flat and textured yarns in PA6 and PA6.6.
XTRA‑COOL: The perfect balance between thermoregulation and lightness
XTRA‑COOL is an advanced solution that combines fast‑drying properties with insulation benefits, helping to optimise user performance.
Hollow helix: its specially designed hollow helical geometry is engineered to enhance thermoregulation and heat dissipation.
Thermal management: helps to reduce body temperature and regulate it during training.
Dual functionality: combines thermal insulation benefits with permanent moisture management and water absorption.
Weight reduction: thanks to its hollow core, it allows the production of significantly lighter fabrics.
Availability: fibres available in PA6.
XTRA‑THERMIC: Maximum thermal insulation for protective garments
XTRA‑THERMIC is the material of choice when the primary objective is enhanced comfort, thermal insulation and extreme lightness.
Hollow circular structure: provides nylon fibres with high thermal insulation performance.
Protective garments: it has been specifically designed for use in thermal protective clothing.
Extra lightness: approximately 20% lighter than circular fibres with a similar decitex.
Base layer: a yarn especially recommended for first‑layer garments worn in direct contact with the skin.
Fabric quality: offers excellent colour fastness and uniformity.
Availability: fibres available in PA6 and PA6.6.
Boost performance: technological synergies
The versatility of NUREL’s technology allows the thermoregulation innovations of the XTRA‑COMFORT family to be used independently or combined with the integrated functional benefits of the XTRA‑ACTIVE family to deliver enhanced performance.
Combine the hollow geometry of XTRA‑THERMIC with XTRA‑ACTIVE INFRARED technology to create the ultimate winter garment, or merge the fast‑drying performance of XTRA‑DRY with the silver‑ion technology of XTRA‑ACTIVE FRESH for sportswear that stays dry and odour‑free.
