Hologenix and Kelheim Fibres launch Celliant Viscose

Hologenix, creators of Celliant^® infrared responsive technology and Kelheim Fibres, manufacturer of viscose specialty fibers based in Kelheim, Germany, have partnered to launch Celliant Viscose. According to Huntington Beach, Calif.-based Hologenix, this will be the first in-fiber infrared sustainable solution on the market and meets a consumer demand for more environmentally-friendly textiles. An alternative to synthetic fibers, the fiber blends with cotton, micromodal, lyocell and wool varieties including cashmere, and it has applications across industries in performance wear, luxury loungewear, casual wear and bedding. The company says its new product features natural, ethically-sourced minerals embedded into plant-based fibers to create infrared products that capture and convert body heat into infrared, increasing local circulation and improved cellular oxygenation.
