‘Naia’ for intimate apparels

USA: Eastman has launched a newly developed cellulosic yarn “Naia” at the intimate apparel fair Interfilière, held recently in Paris. Naia can be used alone or in blends with other fibres to create fabrics that are suitable for intimate apparel, evening apparel, or everyday casual wear. According to Eastman, fabrics made of Naia release stains like wine and coffee easily, offer excellent wrinkle recovery, and can be laundered at home.
