- FiberCraft showcased COOLMAX technology from The LYCRA Company at Bharat Tex 2026, highlighting moisture-management fiber solutions for high-performance apparel.
- The Ahmedabad-based specialty yarn manufacturer promoted COOLMAX technology for activewear, denim, workwear and other textile applications, reinforcing its focus on innovation and solutions incorporating recycled resources.
Through its collaboration with The LYCRA Company, Fiber Craft and RADCCO are bringing the COOLMAX fiber portfolio to Indian textile manufacturers, enabling brands to develop garments designed to combine comfort, durability and more sustainable materials across multiple apparel categories.
The COOLMAX brand, owned by The LYCRA Company, includes fiber technologies designed to deliver cooling comfort. These technologies transport moisture away from the body to the fabric surface, where it can evaporate quickly, helping wearers stay cool, dry and comfortable during daily wear or intensive physical activity.
The portfolio includes COOLMAX EcoMade technology, made with either 100 percent recycled PET bottles or 100 percent pre-consumer textile waste from garment cutting rooms. The technology is suitable for applications including activewear, denim, ready-to-wear garments, outerwear, socks, underwear, uniforms, workwear and bedding.
The company also highlighted COOLMAX ALL SEASON technology, which combines moisture management with lightweight warmth for year-round comfort and engineered for demanding performance applications including sportswear, uniforms and industrial workwear.
“Bharat Tex provided an excellent platform to connect with the Indian textile industry and showcase the versatility of the COOLMAX fiber portfolio. Through our collaboration with Fiber Craft and RADCCO, we are helping mills and brands access performance-driven solutions that combine comfort, durability and moisture management across a wide range of apparel applications. We are encouraged by the growing interest in functional textiles and look forward to supporting innovation in the Indian market with COOLMAX branded technologies,” said Thiru, Commercial Director, South Asia, The LYCRA Company.
