![<p><strong>Knit Fabrics<br /></strong></p>
<p>Knits are either active or circular knits, with or without nap or pile. Knit is worn in all layers of the clothing systems, for example, as fleece or softshells. Knit products can be produced from all types of materials, whether natural fibres, mix qualities, or synthetic fibres.</p> Knit Fabrics](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_knitted.png)
![<p><strong>Woven Fabrics<br /></strong></p>
<p>Bonded and laminated materials for jackets and pants that combine the features of the second and third layers of functional clothing systems. It is claimed to be used in 80% of all activities. Softshells may be made of woven or knit fabrics, however, the seams may not be taped. Softshells usually have elastic properties.</p> Woven Fabrics](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_woven.png)
![<p><strong>Fleece</strong></p>
<p>Knitted fabric produced on a multi-filament basis, which is brushed on one or both sides to achieve better thermal retention through air entrapment. The fineness of the fibers and height of the pile determine the insulation effect. “GRID” structures increase the air circulation on the side next to the skin.</p> Fleece](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_FLEECE.png)
![<p><strong>Visibility Add-On</strong></p>
<p>All reflective elements that support the idea of visibility and are not made of cloth. This includes items like labels, patches, piping, tapes, cords, zippers, and zipper pullers. The reflective elements can be cut out, tailored, pressed, or printed.</p> Visibility Add-On](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Visibility_add-ons.png)
![<p><strong>Transfers</strong></p>
<p>All print products for clothing, bags, and shoes – transfer printing with the feel of textiles or applied to textile surfaces. These are high quality, fine print transfer printing techniques or 3-D prints on fabric.</p> Transfers](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Transfers.png)
![<p><strong>Trims</strong></p>
<p>Small detail accessories on clothing, backpacks, bags, and shoes such as buttons, pressure snaps, strings, stoppers, zipper pullers, eyelets, rivets, and rubber strips. However, not for accessories that belong to one of the categories: zippers, tapes, labels, and transfers.</p> Trims](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Trims.png)
![<p><strong>Applications · Inlays</strong></p>
<p>Products that cannot be used independently and require a carrier material, such as padding materials, meshes, linings, shock absorption, or trimmings. These also include textile workmanships that combine padding with bonding or padding with quilting, and the special production methods required for such material designs. </p> Applications · Inlays](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Applications_·_Inlays.png)
![<p><strong>Fibres · Yarns · Insulation</strong></p>
<p>Fillers for clothing that allows climate management, i.e., warming or cooling properties. “Insulation + Fibres” indicates synthetic fibres, natural fibers, and blended fibers.</p> Fibres · Yarns · Insulation](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Insulation_·_Fibres.png)
![<p><strong>Tapes</strong></p>
<p>All elastic or non-elastic fabric tapes that in the context of manufacturing of textiles or accessories, are glued, bonded or sealed. Selected applications include: As a design element in sealing seams or in waistbands of snow guards or bike pants.</p> Tapes](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Tapes.png)
![<p><strong>HIGH ABRASION</strong></p>
<p>Highly robust, abrasion resistant and even cut resistant fabrics for use in motorcycle or alpine clothing collections and work clothes (especially, forestry work) - processed either as full surface or as reinforcement. Abrasion resistant fabrics are characterized by high ratings in the Martindale method (EN-ISO-12947-2). Cut resistant fabrics may be so designated by the FPA or must comply with DIN EN 381, Parts 2 and 5.</p> High Abrasion](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_high_abrasion.png)
![<p><strong>Printable</strong></p>
<p>Printable carrier fabrics. The printing method is dependent on the respective base material. Various print methods include digital, transfer, and roll pressure.</p> Printable](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_prints_fancy.png)
![<p><strong>Quick Dry</strong></p>
<p>Materials that distribute absorbed moisture over a larger area, effectively allowing them to evaporate faster. The quick drying properties can be achieved by the type of fiber, fiber cross section, fabric construction, or treatment.</p> Quick Dry](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_quick_dry.png)
![<p><span>Products that ensure better visibility at dusk or darkness. Appropriate for use in workwear clothing or various kinds of sport, either as reflectors (passive reflection), active emitters that emit pre-absorbed light (glow-in-the-dark), or even high-vis(ible) colors as per DIN-ISO-20471 for workwear purposes.</span></p> Reflective / High Visible](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_reflective_high_visibility.png)
![<p><strong>Stretch</strong></p>
<p>Fabrics that are elastic because of their fiber inserts and/or fabric structure. This category is further sub-divided in two or four way stretch (bi- and multi-stretch).</p> Stretch](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_stretch.png)
![<p><strong>Thermo-Regulation</strong></p>
<p>Fabrics that regulate (cool or warm) the body temperature of the wearer, for example by fiber type, fiber cross section, etc. Can also be achieved by fabric construction or finishes/ treatments.</p> Thermo-Regulation](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_Thermo-Regulation.png)
![<p><strong>Waterproof & Breathable</strong></p>
<p>Fabrics and agents for the production of waterproof clothing. The term waterproof implies coated or laminated materials, which can achieve the minimum water column requirements (in mm). Whether a fabric is classified as waterproof depends on the relevant standard. In Europe, the standard is EN-ISO-811, which specifies a minimum value of 1500 mm. The Japanese JIS method demands the attainment of a minimum value of 3000 mm. The height of the water column is application dependent, so higher values are sometimes necessary.</p>
<p>A functional fabric should provide good breathability. This is expressed by the MVTR. The value is given in g/m²/24h – the higher the value, the better the breathability.</p> Waterproof & Breathable](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_waterproof_breathable.png)
![<p><strong>WINDPROOF</strong></p>
<p>Fabrics that have a very high wind resistance. This is measured in air volume over time (CCS).</p> Windproof](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_windproof_breathable.png)
![<p><strong>Safety, Health & Durability</strong></p>
<p>Safety clothing for hazardous activities or for professions where special protection is required. Depending on the application area, it must comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) categories or show compliance with multiple standards. Also to be used for mountaineering and other application areas with extremely high standards.</p> Safety, Health & Durability](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_WORKWEAR_&_HEAVY_DUTY.png)
![<p><strong>Fluorocarbon-Free Repellant </strong></p>
<p>Fabrics that achieve water repellant properties without the use of harmful per fluorinated chemicals that may pose a risk to health and the environment. This information is of special interest with coated or laminated base materials since they frequently involve working with PFC’s.</p> Fluorocarbon-Free Repellant](/files/performancedays/content/performance-codes/icon_FLUOCARBON-FREE.png)
