EDE – Tanatex Chemicals has developed a new micro-encapsulation garment finishing technology which will host cosmetic solutions, said to improve skin conditions and have slimming effects.
Microcapsules made from natural polysaccharides (sugars) and polypeptides (proteins) disperse the contents after enzymatic breakdown; a process through which enzymes on the wearer’s skin biodegrade the capsule walls.
The cosmetic solution is then slowly dispersed and absorbed by the skin; whilst treated garments can be laundered an estimated 20 times, retaining the finishing solution for repeated applications.
