ZrOC™
Vapor Technologies
MC# 7700-01
Category: Metals

A durable, hard coating of metal-ceramic that increases abrasion resistance and creates a metallic luster for decorative and tribological applications, and can be deposited on metal, plastic, wood, textile and glass substrates. The material is made through the energetic displacement of a zirconium-based refractory metal that is then combined with varying ratios of oxygen and/or carbon to offer both the desired color and hardness. Unlike traditional surface coating methods, which tend to wear more quickly and have a limited metallic color pallete, the low-temperature arc vapor deposition (LTAVD) process produces highly durable, easy to clean coatings in a wide range of colors to enhance appearance, along with wear- and scratch-resistance. The process time can vary from 1 to 3 hours. It is an environmentally safe, dry process that allows a wide variety of materials to be coated for durability and provides a distinctive and uniform appearance at lower costs. It can be customized for color, ranging from light yellow to deep black and its thickness can vary based upon the application from 0.1 to 1.2 microns. Applications include surface coatings for automotive hardware (trim and exposed hardware), home hardware (kitchen faucets, showers, handles, knobs) and appliances (plastic trim, metal accents and work tooling, i.e. knives, mixers).

ThermalTech® Smart Fabric
THERMALTECH®
MC# 7627-01
Category: Metals

A patented lightweight smart fabric made of 100% stainless steel mesh that is coated with a solar selective coating. This coating is able to capture 80% of the energy from the sun’s ultraviolet rays, radiant energy from artificial light and infrared light such as the wearer’s own body heat. The energy absorbed from either natural or artificial light is then transformed into heat to warm the fabric in only a few minutes. The fabric is a woven stainless steel mesh, which allows for breathability, and further coated with a solar selective coating similar to what is used by solar water heater technology. Traditional fabrics or metallic surfaces without solar selective coatings only retain 40-45% of the energy collected from the sun because they reflect the remaining energy. The material is available in 0.03 mm (0.001 in) thickness with a minimum order quantity of 5000 sq. m (5980 sq. yd); consumption per garment is approximately 0.50 – 2 m (1.6 – 6.6 ft). It is sold in 7 dark colors; each color has a different hand feel. In accordance with ISO 17075:3007m, less than 0.02 PPM of chromium is found in this material. Currently it is used as an inner lining for outerwear, but can find application in a broad range of garments including indoor and outdoor apparel, curtains and camping accessories.

Leather dyed INDIGO
Fulame
MC# 7670-01
Category: Naturals

Vegetable-tanned leather that is dyed with natural indigo dye to create unique handmade leather accessories. Unlike harsh chemicals or alcohol-based colors that are used conventionally for leather dyeing, this process applies a natural indigo dye using special techniques. Indigo dye works at lower temperatures, and the dyeing process is much faster compared to other natural dyes that require a higher temperature. It is highly durable and has significantly lower environmental impact. Natural indigo has a high proportion of impurities that provide rich color variations as opposed to synthetic indigo, which produces an even blue that never varies. As a result, a different shade of blue is created every time depending on the duration of dyeing, where the Indigo was grown, weather at that time, and other processing parameters. It is possible to create various blue and white patterns, resulting in one-of-a-kind indigo-dyed leather pieces. Available by the foot in blue color with many shades. Applications include furniture, bags, luggage and shoes.

Knitdigo- Twill
Air Park International Ltd.
MC# 7423-02
Category: Naturals

Cotton and spandex knitted textile that mimics the structure and look of woven denim. The fabric achieves a high degree of 4 way stretch due to its construction.This material blends the physical properties of a knit with the visual attributes of denim. Through careful design of the knit structure the textile appears to be traditional denim, a material that is woven in a 3x1 right hand twill construction. The blended cotton/spandex fibers are spun into yarn, which is then dyed, creating some variability in the color density randomly throughout. The yarn is then knitted with floats on the face to mimic the angular pattern of denim twill. Undyed yarns are used too, creating the lighter reverse side of the fabric, also an emulation of the denim structure. The knitted goods are sold by the meter or yard in 62 and 60 in widths (155 and 150 cm) with weights from 420 to 360 gsm (12.4 to 10.6 oz./yd2), and spandex content raging from 3 to 5%, respectively. Two colors are offered, indigo and sulfur black, in varying degrees of concentration or “washdown”. Color can be customized for a client’s specific application. Applications include apparel, sportswear, accessories and home goods.
