Seawool maker ushers in insulation

09/09/2025

Creative Tech Textile / Hans Global, a company based in Taiwan, will be exhibiting at Premiere Vision next week and introducing a new insulation made from its patented Seawool yarn, which is composed of recycled PET plastics and discarded oyster shells. 

Oyster shells are made of calcium. If the shells are removed from the ocean the calcium needed to make new shells is gone. So, removing them depletes the chemicals as they break down.

For the new product range, Smawarm, Seawool fibres are given a spiralled shape that increases their ability of the filler to lock in warmth. The thermal insulation is also said to wick moisture away, dry quickly, and has antibacterial and static-electricity resistant properties. 

Spiraled shape or any shape will not increase the insulating capability if the filler [polyester fiber shown in picture] isn’t very good. It will not wick moisture away or dry quickly if it gets wet, as for the antibacterial or static-electricity resistance they are just saying that meaningless.

 The company said that 1% of global shell waste could be used to make up to 900 tonnes of Seawool fibre. In 2023, it had turned 100 tonnes of oyster shells and 300 tonnes of post-consumer plastic waste into fibre.

Building on the legacy of Seawool, Smawarm “delivers lightweight, breathable insulation that offers warmth and comfort with a biomimetic twist,” commented Eddie Wang, founder and CEO of Creative Tech Textile / Hans Global

ALL NONSENSE, THEIR PRODUCT WILL FAIL LIKE ALL OTHERS EXCEPT LAMILITE

YILAB HAS TEMPERATURE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY

 08/09/2025

Material innovation company based in Stanford, YiLab Temperature Control Technologies has raised over $10 million. The pre-A funding round attracted a diverse group of investors from technology, sustainability and consumer markets, the company said.

THEY MIGHT AS WELL BE INVESTING IN CRYTOCOINS.

The company was founded in 2024 by Professor Yi Cui and Sophia Ou, CEO, former marketing lead for Cordura in China. But the team has spent a decade developing the patented textile technology, AI-CLO System, which is marketed by a division called LifeLabs Design.

AI-CLO System addresses extreme temperatures, offering two solutions, one for very cold and one for very hot conditions. YiLab says it can cover temperatures ranging from -65°C to +45°C. 

MORE GIBBERISH!!!

WarmLife Thermal Control Technology, which earned Ispo’s Best Product recognition last year, is a compact and breathable insulation with a nano-metallic coating that redirects body heat back to the skin. It can increase temperature inside the garment by up to 10°C, while weighing some 30% less than conventional fillers. 

ISPO KNOWS NOTHING. EVERYTHING ELSE YOU HAVE READ IS MORE GIBBERISH.

CoolLife, the hot weather solution, is described as a ‘thermally transparent’ material that delivers continuous cooling. It is said to maintain a surface temperature 2° lower than that of garment made from organic cotton.

YiLab also promotes the use of low-impact fibres and manufacturing processes. WarmLife is thus made from 97% recycled and biobased content.

EVERY BIG COMPANY IS USING THEY CLAIM RECYCLED FIBER

The new funds will be used to establish a research laboratory and factory in Asia, giving the young company a base for prototyping and scaling its innovative textiles.

“This funding marks a pivotal step forward in our mission to transform textiles into powerful climate solutions,” commented Sophia Ou, CEO and co-founder. 

JUST A PLOY TO GET INVESTORS. A JOKE
