Coolmax developed in 1986 by Dupont, is Invista's
speclly engineered polyester fiber brand. The
engineered fibers of Coolmax has better breathability
properties than natural fibers. Coolmax is known for
drawing the moisture away from the skin. The structure
of the fibers creates capillary action and wicks the
moisture through the core out to the surface of the
fabric. Coolmax keeps the wearer cool and dry under hot
weather conditions.

11. The physical structure of Coolmax fabric means moisture is
pulled into it, away from the body. That moisture is then
spread out thinly across the fabric to enable it to evaporate
faster. The quicker it is able to evaporate, the dryer you are.
This is what makes Coolmax such a popular fabric to use in
both clothing and in mattress covers.
