This lightweight knitted spacer integrates Coolmax Fresh FX yarn containing advanced wicking fibres and anti-bacterial yarn. Together these technologies deliver unmatched moisture control, quick drying, and odour resistance.
Technical information
With a weight of 200-250g/m2, the breathable 3D spacer structure allows air circulation while maintaining excellent recovery from compression. The fabric is also machine washable at 60°C for easy care without losing shape or performance.
Produced sustainably at Baltex's UK facility, this spacer textile is fully recyclable at end of life.
