INUTEQ-PVA® Technology

INUTEQ-PVA® represents a pinnacle of high-performance evaporative cooling, engineered for ultra-lightweight and powerful results. This technology is built upon a highly absorbent Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) fabric, which is renowned for its exceptional water absorption and retention capabilities. This allows for rapid activation and an immediate, intense cooling effect. Designed for fast relief from heat, INUTEQ-PVA® products are perfect for high-performance applications in sports, work, and outdoor activities where lightweight comfort and instant cooling are essential.

The Technology

Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is a synthetic polymer that is transformed into a unique fabric with a sponge-like, open-cell structure. This structure gives the material its remarkable ability to absorb and hold a significant amount of water, far exceeding its own weight. When activated, the water is slowly released through evaporation, creating a powerful cooling sensation. The PVA fabric is exceptionally durable yet soft to the touch when wet, and it becomes rigid when dry, a characteristic sign of its readiness for reactivation. Its lightweight nature and high tensile strength make it an ideal material for high-performance cooling apparel.

How It Works

The INUTEQ-PVA® technology leverages the natural process of evaporation to deliver powerful cooling. The activation is exceptionally fast and simple:

1. Activation: The user soaks the product in water for just one minute, allowing the PVA fabric to become fully saturated.
2. Squeeze: The user gently squeezes out the excess water. The fabric retains the necessary moisture for cooling while feeling damp but not dripping wet.
3. Evaporation: The technology immediately begins to release water through evaporation, which draws heat from the body and creates an extreme cooling effect. The cooling is instant and highly effective.

The cooling effect starts the moment the product is activated and can last for several hours, depending on the ambient temperature, humidity, and airflow.

Key Features and Benefits

INUTEQ-PVA® technology is engineered for performance, offering distinct advantages:

• Advanced PVA Fabric: The technology is centered around the unique properties of PVA fabric, which ensures super-absorbency and a high rate of evaporation for maximum cooling power.
• Extreme Cooling Effect: Delivers an immediate and intense cooling sensation, providing instant relief from heat stress.
• Ultra-Lightweight: The products are exceptionally lightweight, ensuring maximum comfort and mobility, even during intense physical activity.
• Rapid Activation: A key advantage is the extremely fast activation time of just one minute, allowing users to cool down without delay.
• Durable and Reusable: The PVA fabric is highly durable and can be reactivated hundreds of times. The products are machine washable and have antibacterial properties for enhanced hygiene.
• Easy to Use: The simple soak-and-squeeze activation method makes it accessible for immediate use in any environment.

Technical Specifications and Performance

The performance of INUTEQ-PVA® is optimized for environments where rapid and powerful cooling is required. Like other evaporative technologies, it performs best in low to moderate humidity.
