The Lycra Company launches new anti-static technology for stockings

The Lycra Company, a global leader in the development of durable and sustainable fiber and technology solutions for the apparel industry, launches its latest innovation for hosiery, LYCRA® SHEER SENSATION technology, which eliminates static electricity in sheer tights.

Well-fitting tights that are comfortable to wear give you self-confidence. However, even with a good fit, static can become a problem and the dress will stick to the body, causing embarrassment and insecurity. A dilemma that many consumers know.

LYCRA® SHEER SENSATION technology can help. Through the bare processing of the fiber, the new technology ensures a high degree of uniformity in the pantyhose and optimized transparency – with possibly lower water consumption and consistent production processes. The result is static-free tights that allow consumers to wear any outfit with confidence.

The aim of our innovations is to give consumers a better wearing experience. LYCRA® fiber has always represented the ultimate in fit and comfort at Hosiery. In 2009, the launch of our LYCRA® FUSION™ technology revolutionized our ability to prevent laddering in sheer tights. The launch of the LIVING LIGHTS technology from the LYCRA® brand a few years later made it possible to create quasi-personalized fine stockings that match your own skin tone exactly. And now, thanks to Magic Ingredient, we can present the solution for anti-static tights, LYCRA® SHEER SENSATION technology, another breakthrough innovation for the hosiery segment.
