Smart Fibers and Fabrics for Cool, Restful Nights
Sleep is essential for our well-being, yet temperature fluctuations often disrupt our ability to fall and stay asleep, leading to restless nights. The solution? Outlast’s temperature-regulating bedding fabrics and fibers. These advanced materials minimize heat peaks, ensuring you stay comfortable and maintain a stable microclimate all night long.
Temperature Regulating Products with NASA Technology
Outlast® Thermo-Technology was originally developed by NASA to protect astronauts from the extreme temperature fluctuations in outer space. Recognizing its potential, the founders of Outlast have dedicated themselves to making this innovative technology accessible for a variety of uses, including clothing, seating, medical equipment, footwear, safety and bedding fabrics. With a wide range of products, Outlast allows you to integrate this advanced technology into nearly any textile, significantly enhancing comfort and well-being.
The Heart of Outlast® Thermo-Technology:
Microencapsulated Wax
At the core of all Outlast® Thermo-Technology products is microencapsulated wax, typically derived from rapeseed oil. This natural wax can change its physical state—melting when warm and solidifying when cold—enabling temperature regulation in fabrics and fibers. It reacts to environmental or body temperature changes proactively, preventing you from starting to sweat. During these state changes, the temperature stabilizes, as thermal energy is absorbed or released to melt or solidify the wax. This process maintains the body’s microclimate, keeping the user comfortable and within their thermal comfort zone.

Less Sweating & Less Freezing
Using products with Outlast® Thermo-Technology while sleeping helps maintain a stable mi-cro-climate, reducing both heat peaks and freezing. Laboratory tests prove that this technology can reduce sweat production by up to 48%* and extend periods of deep sleep. It creates an improved sleep setting and helps put an end to restless nights. People who suffer from sleep disorders can greatly benefit from temperature-regulating products, but everyone can use them to improve their quality of sleep. Help your customers sleep better by offering bedding fabrics and fibers from Outlast, providing additional value and functionality.
CEO Martin Bentz has been running the company successfully for over 20 years and remains enthusiastic about the technology: “I love the ‘wow’ effect when customers experience Out-last® Thermo-Technology for the first time. The technology really speaks for itself, and we hardly have to do any convincing anymore.”
CEO, Martin Bentz, believes he has the coolest additional textile function on earth.
