Specialists in flame retardant fabrics - Latest Technology.

Drapilux Air® and Drapilux Bioaktiv®

It's absolutely amazing that such an invention has not been launched earlier - Dipl. Ing. Andreas Metzger.

Amazement and excitement - this is the typical response to drapilux air, the new generation of fabrics that offer new and long-lasting extra benefits.

Tobacco smoke and unpleasant smells such as ammonia are eliminated. Hazardous substances and toxins such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde or nicotine are eliminated fully or in part - by the fabric itself - without cleaning or spraying. This is thanks to a novel, patented active agent and Schmitz-Werke's (our parent company) idea to integrate it into flame-resistant Trevira CS Fabrics

The active agent in drapilux air works according to the catalyst principle. As soon as the moving air brings gas molecules in contact with the fabric, drapilux air starts an absorption, elimination and conversion process. Using this latest technology the result can be felt: the air is perceived as cleaner and fresher: and the air is healthier.

Whether it's an office, or a hotel, a hospital or a nursing home, a clinic or old people's home, a cruise ship or your own home - drapilux air means added freshness and well being.

Bioaktiv takes it one step further.

The drapilux solution for strict hygiene standards - using antimicrobial fibres.

Still based on our winning Trevira CS fabric drapilux bioaktiv gives permanent protection against mico-organisms, including all common forms and types of bacteria. Harmless silver ions on a ceramic base are impregnated into the fabric during production - there is no need to add any agent later in the product's life. The active substance is bonded into the fibre. Therefore there is no migration to the skin, the fabric is wash resistant. Additionally the fabric does not cause environmental pollution thanks to the use of chloro-organic compounds - they cannot be washed out.
