RHOVYL® FIBRES FOR THE MOST COMFORTABLE BEDDING The properties most needed for really hygienic and comfortable bedding are: thermal insulation, non-flammability, antibacterial effectiveness, anti dust-mite action. Rhovyl developed two fibres with these advantages: Rhovyl'As® antibacterial and Rhovyl'A.S.+®. The natural non-flammability derives from the basic polymer used and provides effective protection from fire risks caused by negligence with a cigarette or a lighted match, or even graver dangers. These two fibres are also the right answer where warmth and perfect protection from the cold are required along with good evacuation of natural moisture. They also prevent the development of bacteria thanks to the antibacterial agent introduced into the core of the fibre before extrusion. Finally, Rhovyl'A.S.+® eliminates the dust mites that are the causes of most allergies in 8 days. Thanks to the strong bonds between molecules of the polymer and the antibacterial and anti dust-mite agents, Rhovyl'As® antibacterial an Rhovyl'A.S.+® fibres retain their properties, even after frequent washings; this efficacy has been tested by independent organisations. RHOVYL'AS® ANTIBACTERIAL AND RHOVYL'A.S.+® - SOME REFERENCES Rhovyl'As® antibacterial and Rhovyl'A.S.+® can be used directly by blown carded laps or bubble stuffing for articles of bedding. They are also suitable for mattress covers and undersheets, either knitted or nonwoven. They are very good for making sheets, continental quilts coverings and pillow cases.
