Tested and Certified
As part of the quality control and testing process, all products that bear the
drirelease® and FreshGuard®
logos must withstand rigorous, performance testing and receive documented approval
from Optimer, Inc. laboratories before attaining certification and entering the
marketplace:
- Horizontal Wicking/Absorbency Tests (AATCC-79)
- Pilling Tests (ASTM-3512)
- Colorfastness/Wet and Dry (AATCC-8)
- Dimensional Stability (AATCC-135)
- Stain Resistance
- UV Protection Tests
In road races, triathlons, and multiple consumer tests,
drirelease beats cotton and the leading performance fabrics
for comfort when wet or dry. And drying-time tests prove that
drirelease dries 4x faster than cotton and as fast as or
faster than the leading performance polyesters. Yet, while it performs better, it
still feels like cotton.
