TurboDry® is currently manufactured in China. As adoption expands, TurboDry® manufacturing will expand to Vietnam, Sri Lanka, and the United States. If you are interested in becoming a licensed manufacturer of TurboDry® please reach out.
TurboDry® is manufactured in bluesign® and Oke-TEK® Standard 100 certified mills. In addition, TurboDry® fabrics do not need wicking chemistry and do not have any performance washout. Thus TurboDry® products are long-lasting, durable, non-chemical alternatives to traditional wicking technologies.
Yes. TurboDry® can be incorporated into knitted and woven fabrics. Currently only knitted fabrics are available, but if your team is interested in incorporating technology into woven fabrics please let us know and we can discuss joint development opportunities.
TurboDry® costs about the same as a traditional fabric or elastic with an up-charge in price similar to a wicking chemistry.
Yes. In fact, recycled fibers do not affect the performance of TurboDry® materials.
There are over 100 different fabrics and another 20+ elastics constructions in the TurboDry® collection. These fabrics include double knit, warp knit, weft knit, jacquard, rascheltronic, seamless, spacer, and interlock constructions.
No. TurboDry® is not a yarn technology. It is a fabric construction technology (how the yarns are knitted and woven together). TurboDry® performance can be achieved with commodity yarns- natural, synthetic, and blended. If your team is interested in incorporating specific yarn technology (for example DriRelease®, 37.5®, etc.) our team can calculate the moisture movement performance before development begins.
TurboDry® works in a similar manner to how tree’s move moisture in their root systems. The yarns in the fabric create capillary channels that pull moisture through the fabric from the inside to the outside. This effect is achieved without additional chemistry.
TurboDry® is a patented fabric technology that relies on proprietary yarn selection and fabric construction techniques to create fabrics, elastics, and trims that move moisture in ways that maximize comfort, performance, and aesthetic.
