T.Silk Silk is a natural fibre with unique characteristics (chemical, physical and performance), of the highest quality and therefore not comparable to other natural, synthetic or artificial fibres.
Our Silk combines breathability with an extraordinary ability to retain heat, without sacrificing lightness, ensuring unparalleled comfort. Hypoallergenic and perfectly compatible with human skin, it offers unparalleled care, health and well-being.
Just as the silk cocoon protects the silkworm in a fundamental phase of its life, our products offer thermoregulation, protection and freshness, for a total well-being experience.
The antioxidant and anti-aging properties of Silk help keep the skin young and healthy. Silk can be revalued, guaranteeing value and naturalness and reducing the impact on the environment.
Our Silk has values that are on average similar to those of other natural fibres, such as wool and cotton.
The air that remains trapped inside the amorphous areas of the fibrils allows thermal insulation. Silk is a unique fiber because it is also an electrical and acoustic insulator.
Silk has excellent elasticity. It can withstand deformations of 20/25% of its initial length, up to deformations of -2%.
The high capacity to absorb and release water and water vapor is superior to that of other fibers, even technical ones with a very low drying time.
Silk, among natural fibers, is the one with the greatest fineness. It presents itself as a natural microfiber of unparalleled lightness.
That of our silk is relatively high and is greater than that of both wool and acetate fibres.
Thanks to the very high quality of the raw materials and the great care and attention used during the manufacturing process, our Silk is very durable.
By subjecting the fibre to repeated bending, silk shows a behaviour intermediate between that of wool and cotton.
Silk fibers have a higher breaking strength than Kevlar and nylon. Silk is capable of absorbing high levels of energy and force without fraying.
T.Silk Silk is composed of two natural proteins, Fibroin and Sericin, very similar to those present in the human body. These are made up of 18 amino acids, which:
