Guaranteed wow effect.
Bailey – Feel the cool.
Anyone who picks up the new material from Outlast Technologies GmbH can hardly hide their surprise. The latest product from the temperature specialist feels exceptionally cool to the touch. Launched under the name Bailey, the material immediately makes one thing clear upon first contact: this is more than a conventional textile.
Engineered Cooling Through Advanced Material Combination
This extraordinary first impression is no coincidence, but the result of a carefully engineered material combination. Bailey combines an exceptionally high heat absorption capacity with a naturally cooling surface. Excess body heat is absorbed instantly, creating a noticeably cool sensation upon contact – an effect that provides immediate relief, especially in warm environments or in applications with direct skin contact.
This experience is made possible by the proven Outlast® Temperature Regulation technology in combination with a Lyocell base fabric. Lyocell is known for its smooth surface and natural cool-touch character. In Bailey, this effect is further enhanced by Outlast® technology: with very high effusivity, the material delivers an exceptionally fresh and cool sensation on the skin – a sensory experience that surprises and convinces.
At the same time, Bailey offers an outstanding heat storage capacity of 7,500 J/m². This means the material not only cools upon first contact but continues to work proactively. Excess heat is absorbed, stored, and released when needed. Temperature peaks are effectively reduced, sweating is minimized, and a balanced, comfortable microclimate is supported.
In addition to performance, Bailey places strong emphasis on sustainability. The Lyocell fiber is largely derived from renewable resources and requires significantly less water to produce than cotton. The temperature-regulating capsules also contribute environmentally: the wax they contain is sourced from renewable materials, offering a bio-based alternative to fossil resources. Bailey therefore, combines tangible comfort with a clear commitment to sustainable materials.
Visually, the material presents a light, clean appearance with a fine, uniform structure. It looks lightweight and premium – already conveying a sense of freshness and purity that is immediately confirmed upon touch.
Bailey is manufactured in Europe and meets the highest environmental and quality standards. Certifications such as OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class 1 and OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN underline its suitability for sensitive applications in direct contact with the skin, as well as a responsible and transparent production process.
