A unique fibre

A light and breathable second skin

We have created a unique fibre: the BTX fibre.

Lighter than water, it frees your desire for movement while guaranteeing comfort and protection at all times: training, competition and leisure. BTX fibre is like a second high-performance skin, a thin layer of high technology that transforms your every effort into pure energy. It is with this fibre that we make all Biotex technical underwear.
Each garment is designed and crafted by hand, in the tradition of handmade Italian knitwear. Our garments are designed for those who practice sport at all levels, from the simplest and lightest activities to extreme sports. Our underwear is also designed to provide you with comfort and protection in your everyday activities, whether for work or leisure. To face every moment of your life with grit and determination.

Ready for every season

The weather becomes an ally, because Biotex technical underwear knows how to make it work in your favour: no drops of sweat on your skin, no energy dispersion, no temperature fluctuations.

Garments made with BTX polypropylene fibre are insulating and water-repellent: your body stays dry, energetic and snappy, warm in the winter months and cool in the summer months.

No external agent stands between you and your goal.
It is breathable: sweat does not stay on your skin, but is transferred onto the fabric and from the fabric to the outside.

In this way, the microclimate between your skin and the underwear you wear remains constant, comfortable and natural. It is highly protective: your temperature is in balance with the outside temperature and you suffer no wasted energy or loss of strength.

The Fibre of the Future

The BXT polypropylene fibre is water-repellent, stain-resistant, impervious to mould, moths and bacteria like no other synthetic or natural fibre. It is resistant to moisture and weathering and, although not completely impermeable, it does not absorb water, dries quickly and, thanks to its specific weight of less than 1 g/cm3, is the only yarn that floats.
BTX is a highly technological, versatile and very resistant fibre that is a candidate in its own right to be called the 'fibre of the future'.

Without the need to add chemical additives, BTX polypropylene has hypoallergenic and anti-odor properties, even after intense physical activity. Particularly suitable for sports underwear, having excellent resistance to acidic agents and alkaline perspiration, polypropylene guarantees a high level of comfort, practicality and hygienic safety in contact with the skin

Biotex garments made using innovative production techniques and BTX fibre.

guarantee the highest sweat expulsion coefficient compared to other yarns.

This material inherently possesses a high surface tension. Thanks to this characteristic, water and sweat pass very quickly through the fibres and do not stop but escape outwards.

This keeps the skin dry and odourless and ensures a perfect balance between temperature and moisture even under the most extreme conditions.

When the pace of training becomes more intense, BTX fibre offers the best Garments made with this innovative fibre solve the unpleasant feeling of wet garments.

It is a hydrophobic fibre, in fact the moisture absorption index (water content expressed as a percentage of the weight of the dry garment) of BTX is almost zero.

It absorbs only 0.9 % of its specific weight, or rather 99.1% remains dry This means fast drying even after washing.

BTX polypropylene is the fibre with the lowest specific weight: very light garments can be obtained to keep the body dry at all times.

Lightness is not to the detriment of thermal insulation, thus allowing fewer layers to be worn to the advantage of comfort.

BTX polypropylene has the highest insulating capacity as it has the lowest thermal conductivity of any fibre and therefore insulates better from the outside climate.

It creates a breathable barrier that acts as an incoming insulator and a vehicle for sweat to the outside. An insulating and protective yet breathable barrier that keeps the skin dry, warm in the winter months and cool in the summer months.

Biotex thinks of you, before during and after sport

Biotex garments think about you even after training. In fact, it is easy to take care of it for the duration of its use.
Because those who love sport, from a jog in the park behind the house to climbing the highest peak, know that nature is an integral part of the challenge they take on every day.

And respects it. Biotex garments are easy to care for: they can be washed in the washing machine at low temperatures, they dry quickly and do not need ironing. They are resistant to stains and dirt, abrasion, wear and washing. They do not felt or shrink.

Their effective durability is guaranteed and this also reduces their impact on the environment.
