X-Tech and Q-SKIN® by Fulgar: Innovation and Performance for Sports

Fulgar’s yarn ensures breathability, freshness, and hygiene, offering athletes highly performing garments.

X-Tech, a leading company from Brescia specializing in producing socks and technical sportswear Made in Italy, has chosen to use Q-SKIN® by Fulgar yarn for some pieces in its collection. These include two cycling garments (a long-sleeved zip jersey and bib shorts) and two "Energy" jerseys (one short-sleeved and one long-sleeved), both ideal for summer training or perfect as base layers during the winter season. 

Q-SKIN® is Fulgar’s polyamide 6.6 fiber that incorporates silver ions directly into the spinning process. These ions regulate bacterial proliferation thanks to their unique chemical and physical properties. Bacteria carry a negative charge, while the silver ions in Q-SKIN® have a positive charge; this mechanism allows the silver ions to reduce excess bacterial flora. The bacteriostatic effectiveness and resistance to repeated washing of Q-SKIN® by Fulgar® have been tested, confirming its efficiency against major bacterial groups, both Gram-positive (Staphylococcus Aureus) and Gram-negative (Klebsiella Pneumoniae). 

Q-SKIN® by Fulgar is therefore a perfect ally for X Tech’s garments, as it helps reduce the development of bad odors and bacterial proliferation during sports activities while ensuring breathability, freshness, and comfort, all while being skin-friendly. 

"Innovation and comfort are key elements in choosing sportswear. We selected Fulgar’s Q-SKIN® because it perfectly meets these needs. Whether for professionals or sports enthusiasts, relying on cutting-edge materials means improving performance and making the most of every workout," says Samuele Ragnoli, owner of X Tech. 

“We know that choosing the right clothing is essential for every athlete and our Q-SKIN® yarn represents an added value for those seeking performance and well-being. We are proud that an Italian company like X Tech has decided to integrate this innovation into its garments, offering a superior training experience.”, commented Daniela Antunes, Marketing Manager of Fulgar.
