Oakley(R) and Bioracer launch Graphene Plus cycling jersey
New Aero Jersey enhanced with Directa Plus' G+ graphene is a
first of its kind cycling garment
Directa Plus plc (AIM: DCTA), a producer and supplier of
graphene-based products for use in consumer and industrial markets,
is pleased to announce that Oakley(R) , in collaboration with
Bioracer, a designer and manufacturer of innovative, customised
clothing for cycling teams and individuals as well as for other
sporting activities, have launched the G+ Graphene Aero Jersey
containing the Company's graphene-based products. Unveiled today at
the EUROBIKE 2018 trade show in Friedrichshafen, Germany, the new
jersey is designed to leverage the unique properties of Graphene
Plus (G+) to dissipate heat from the rider's body enabling them to
focus less on the conditions around them and more on
performance.
The Company's unique, printed G+ planar thermal circuit
distributes the heat generated by the body and dissipates it when
needed to significantly improve the comfort of the wearer and
enable riders to use less energy to regulate their body
temperature. Fabrics treated with G+ are also electrostatic and
bacteriostatic. These properties contribute to moisture management
and have an anti-odour effect, and, if placed on the outside of the
garment, G+ reduces the friction with air and water to facilitate
top sporting performance. In addition, Directa Plus' production
process is chemical-free and its graphene-based products have been
independently certified as non-toxic and non-cytotoxic.
Giulio Cesareo, Chief Executive Officer of Directa Plus, said:
"We are honoured that Oakley and Bioracer have launched the G+ Aero
Jersey incorporating our Graphene Plus, which follows extensive lab
and road testing. It is a significant endorsement of the strengths
of our offer and, in particular, the thermal regulation abilities
of our G+ planar thermal circuit. Sportswear represents a
substantial potential market for our G+ and we're delighted to have
added cycling clothing to our portfolio of G+-enhanced textiles for
sport, which includes skiing, golf and athleisure. We congratulate
Oakley and Bioracer on this launch - a first of its kind cycling
garment - and look forward to expanding our relationship with
them."
