Nuyarn, The Revolutionary Spinning Technology
Nuyarn is a revolutionary spinning technology that unleashes the natural performance properties of merino, producing yarn for ultralight, high-performance fabrics.
Whereas conventional ringspun or corespun merino twists wool fibers into a rope-like structure (which significantly reduces the performance potential of wool), Nuyarn drafts fibers along a high-performance filament, creating a structure that unleashes the fiber’s natural properties.
Nuyarn Spinning Technology creates an incredibly fine, 2 ply twist-free yarn that performs better across the board in stretch, loft, strength, comfort, volume, dry time, next-to-skin feel, and mechanical abrasion, spirality, pilling, elasticity, warmth, and ultraviolet protection.
Nuyarn – lighter, faster, stronger, better.
Compared to traditional ringspun or corespun merino, with up to 35% more volume and aeration, Nuyarn outperforms competitors in 5 key areas:
- 5x Faster Drying: Nuyarn begins to absorb moisture at the vapor stage, before it becomes droplets – one tier before synthetic fibers begin to absorb moisture.
- 8.8x More Durable: One Nuyarn Merino garment will last as long as nine traditionally spun merino garments.
- 85% More Elasticity: Nuyarn offers up to 85% more stretch than conventional Merino, and returning to 100% of its original shape.
- 53% More Air Resistant: Your body can expend less energy maintaining its core temperature caused by convection heat loss.
- 35% Higher Thermal Retention: Your body can use more energy for performance rather than thermoregulation. Athletes will be able to wear lighter and more comfortable garments that achieve the same result as heavier garments. 50% Higher Burst Strength & 120% Stronger Seams: Garments created with Nuyarn Merino have increased defenses against unexpected punctures or abrasion and are less likely to suffer a tear at the seams.
Sustainability – More Durable with Less Materials and Waste
On a like-for-like basis, Nuyarn Technology uses 30% less raw materials and 73% less energy and outlasts traditional merino garments by up to 8.8x. Nuyarn Technology spins at speeds of up to 250m per minute. This is up to 16.7x faster than the maximum 15m per minute spinning speed of traditional machines common in the industry. This is one of the biggest contributors to our ability to do more with a smaller production footprint, lower energy, and with less raw materials.
Nuyarn is a mechanical process (vs. chemical), and the benefits last for the entire lifetime of the garment.
