- Mogul SoftflexInherently polypropylene spunbond feels relatively hard. Thanks to a special additive Softflex has a softer feeling. The Spunbond process is a manufacturing system involving direct conversion of a polymer into continuous filaments, integrated with the conversion of the filaments into a random laid nonwoven fabric and thermal bonding.
- Mogul IlluminiousThe polypropylene spunbond fabric Mogul Illuminious absorbs light when opposed to it, and is luminous when taken to a dark place. The fabric is manufactured by direct conversion of a polymer into continuous filaments, integrated with the conversion of the filaments into a random laid nonwoven fabric and thermal bonding.
- Contra-HContra Textures come in four different densities of flame retarded, textural viscose. Contra-H has a random, uniquely haphazard pattern available in a Fine, Medium And Super textural version. The Contra-O has a overlapping circular pattern.

- Uncomfortable‘Uncomfortable’ is a material research that ended up into an organic looking 3D structure made of plastic waste. Originally produced in filaments, it can be reshaped in any forms and be connected together to create panels, surfaces and 3D objects.
- Recycled PET blendWaste2Wear is specialized in the recycling of plastic waste into high quality, yarns, woven and non-woven fabrics and finished textile products. The recycled PET (RPET) blended fabrics consist of at least 30% RPET. Waste2Wear fabrics are made from very high twisted filament yarns, with a high number of fibers. This increases breathability and makes them very comfortable to wear.
