At Heimtextil 2026 in Frankfurt, Devan, headquartered in Ronse, Belgium, showcased a range of new textile solutions contributing to better sleep quality and overall well being.

Devan Comfort is the company’s patented polymer technology which actively cools and manages moisture, ensuring a balanced and comfortable sleep environment. Unlike standard fabrics that trap heat and humidity, often leading to restless nights, Devan Comfort regulates temperature and moisture to create a consistently restful experience.

Devan has also expanded its Devan Revital line with two new active ingredients – Recovera, a synergistic blend designed to soothe, revitalise and support the body’s natural recovery processes, and Mood Boost, which promotes relaxation.

Both ingredients leverage Devan’s patented micro-encapsulation technology which has been clinically tested with multiple bioactives and textiles and demonstrated effective delivery through skin contact and/or olfactive inhalation. Controlled capsule release ensures sustained bioactive performance over time.

Bioflam is meanwhile a 95% biobased flame retardant made entirely from renewable resources and delivering efficient flame retardant protection without halogens, heavy metals or antimony. This flame retardant is not only highly effective but also preserves the natural handle and feel of fabrics it is applied to.

In addition, Devan Cool TOC HC 404 is an advanced, patented cooling technology specifically designed for foam applications. The technology helps textiles to actively dissipate excess body heat, providing an instant cooling sensation while supporting long-lasting thermal balance. By keeping the body in its optimal comfort zone, TOC HC 404 enhances overall comfort and well-being, making it ideal for applications where temperature regulation is key.

Finally, the company has developed a readily biodegradable moisture management technology – Quickdry Devatec Wik Bio, based on 100% renewable plant-based raw materials.

“Our goal is to combine science and comfort in ways that genuinely improve everyday life,” said Devan CEO Roberto Teixeira. “From active cooling to well being-enhancing textiles, each innovation is designed to help people sleep better, feel better and enjoy fabrics that work as hard as they do. Heimtextil gave us the perfect stage to share these solutions with the global textile community.”
