OEKO-TEX SUITED
Innovative technology at work
A powerful blend of multiple strains of the Bacillus family and selected prebiotics are delivered to the textile in an entirely bio-based porous matrix that protects them and allows slow release. Upon intense, direct contact of the skin with the textile surface, the prebiotics and probiotics detach from the textile and migrate onto the skin in relevant amounts to create a well-balanced microbiome. Prebiotics serve as nutrients for the synergistic probiotics and also the native beneficial microorganisms on the skin.

Loungewear
