Teijin's Nanofront high-strength polyester

used in gloves

Teijin Fibers Limited, the core company of the Teijin Group's polyester fibers business, announced that it is supplying Nanofront high-strength polyester nanofiber for use in the palms of bicycle and motorcycle gloves made by Goldwin Inc., a major sport apparel maker in Japan. This is the first time for Nanofront to be used in bicycle and motorcycle gloves.

Nanofront is a high-strength polyester fiber with a thickness 7,500 times smaller than the cross section of a human hair. The gloves offer excellent frictional properties and soft texture. Nanofront also boasts high moisture absorbency and diffusion for added comfort.
