The LYCRA Company, a global industry frontrunner in sustainable fibre and technology solutions for apparel and personal care sectors has launched an intellectual property enforcement drive backing LYCRA®️ FitSense™️ technology.
This technology is an aqueous dispersion of LYCRA®️ polymer which is print-applicable, conferring localised power augmentation on fabrics, yielding shaping and compression benefits.
Successfully embraced by both domestic Chinese and international labels, this printable LYCRA®️ technology benefits from robust trademark protection.
Fortified by a global patent portfolio concerning fabric-altering print techniques for enhanced shaping, LYCRA®️ FitSense™️ is primarily used in activewear, swimwear, shapewear, and leggings.
The technology offers lightweight single-layer fabric advantages which replicates dual-layer fabrics, advancing eco-friendly practices. This innovation optimises garment construction, offering lightweight targeted support for enhanced comfort and style.
Vincent Hu, VP of Asia, apparel, and President of the APAC region remarked, “As the benefits of LYCRA® FitSense™ technology are significant, we are beginning to see products that are attempting to replicate our offering. Given our ownership of the intellectual property for this unique technology, it is appropriate that we exercise our rights to take the necessary legal action to deal with infringers.”
