LIGHTWEIGHT INSULATION
Aersulate® Fibers significantly improve insulation performance without adding extra weight. The result? Warm winter quilts that are as light as summer ones.
THE ULTIMATE INSULATION MATERIAL
DISCOVER AEROGEL:
Aerogel, a silicate-based solid derived from quartz sand, is renowned for its exceptional insulating properties. Its outstanding performance is attributed to its highly porous structure, consisting of 98 % air, which makes it an ideal material for thermal insulation. Leveraging these remarkable properties, the Aersulate® fibers incorporate an impressive 50 % aerogel content by volume, establishing new benchmarks in insulation efficiency.
Facts!
AERSULATE® FIBERS
• Contain Aerogel – the lightest solid in the world.
• Silicate-based Aerogel derived from quartz sand with superior insulating.
• Aerogel is also used by NASA in space.
• Fibers contain a high proportion of air, enhancing insulation.
• Maintain performance under pressure and humidity.
• An animal-friendly alternative to down for animal welfare.
• Based on viscose and therefore sustainable.
AEROGEL-INFUSED FIBERS
Outlast has pioneered a groundbreaking technology that incorporates the ultra-light and highly insulating material Aerogel directly into viscose fibers.
Wow!
MICROSCOPIC CROSS-SECTION
The high air content in the Aersulate® viscose fibers becomes visible in microscopic cross-sectional images.
INDEPENDENT TESTING OF AERSULATE® TECHNOLOGY
An independent, ISO-certified laboratory conducted tests to assess the insulation performance of Aersulate® technology. The evaluation compared 2 cm thick wadding made from viscose fibers, one with and one without the Aerogel component, in accordance with the DIN EN ISO 11092 standard. The results highlight the remarkable improvement in insulation when using Aersulate® fibers.

Head of Research & Development
„With this new technology, we can fully use the benefits of Aerogel for the textile industry for the first time, without compromising on softness or comfort. Manufactures from the bedding industry now develop extremely lightweight yet highly insulating products that meet the growing demands for quality and functionality.“
