JUMBO­-Textil: High-tech textiles for exoskeletons

Production and care, logistics and agriculture – people in these and many other industries work hard day after day. Exoskeletons offer them enormous relief in this regard. And in rehabilitation, these innovative "power suits" help patients expand their motor capabilities and extend their mobility. The central component of the exoskeleton is elastic narrow textiles.

Every gram counts
Exoskeletons also require lightweight components. And every gram counts here. Textiles are particularly light materials in themselves and JUMBO-Textil's elastics are also suitable for replacing heavier parts made of or containing plastic or metal. For example, they replace springs, buckles or other fasteners.

Good for your back – and your skin
Exoskeletons need skin-friendly components. Depending on the model and ambient temperature, exoskeletons are also worn directly on the skin. This is why JUMBO-Textil does not compromise when it comes to wearing comfort: whether elasticated hook-and-loop belts or slip-proof woven tapes, the surface of the textiles is pleasantly soft. And to prevent moisture accumulating, the textiles are always permeable to air. They are free from harmful substances and meet OEKO-TEX Standard 100 PK1.

Innovative production technology – complex textile architecture
Exoskeletons need safe and stable components. JUMBO-Textil's production technology is always state-of-the-art. This allows for very different, and complex stable textile structures – from elastic buttonhole braids to multi-branched elastic hole cords.

Freudenberg: Protection and Flexibility for Workwear

Freudenberg Performance Materials (Freudenberg) offers a range of efficient interlinings, tapes and thermal insulation materials for workwear and protective clothing. The materials not only withstand diverse kinds of strain they are exposed to in everyday work and washing procedures but also offer great comfort.

Innovative materials and manufacturing technology
The nonwoven and woven interlinings and tapes stand out due to a number of features, such as increased stability, elasticity, abrasion resistance and wind-blocking properties. Thanks to the sophisticated adhesive technology used by the manufacturer of technical textiles, some products are especially resistant and durable.

Highly flexible and resilient interlinings as well as Freudenberg comfortemp® thermal insulation materials are used for protective clothing, and they do not only protect the wearer from danger but also ensure the wearer’s comfort in any kind of weather. Furthermore, hem and edge stabilisation tapes ensure optimal fit and reflective tapes provide additional safety.
