Scientists say synthetic fibres are best for suits


1 July 2009, Boenningheim - Scientists at the Hohenstein Institute who have developed a polyester fabric for men’s suitings with good moisture and heat management properties, claim that the fabric significantly outperforms other materials. They also say that wearers of high-quality business clothing who still consider wool to be the ultimate fabric are wrong.

The Hohenstein Institute says that modern synthetic fibres, whose properties can be designed by targeted processes, offer numerous advantages as compared to natural fibres, which also apply to men’s and ladies’ suits.
