About
PERCVD is a cutting-edge, nano-level plasma coating technology designed to enhance the durability, functionality, and sustainability of garments.
By extending the lifespan of garments, PERCVD plays a pivotal role in keeping clothing in circulation for longer, thereby reducing waste, keeping garments out of landfills, and promoting circular fashion. Seamlessly integrating with rental, resale, and recharging models, PERCVD represents the future of sustainable textile innovation.
This eco-friendly solution also revitalizes clothing by adding and restoring functionalities such as Durable Water Repellency (DWR) and Easy Stain Release (ESR) onto finished garments, all while preserving the clothing’s original texture, hand feel, color, and drape.
Why We Made It
The fashion industry's rapid turnover and reliance on fleeting trends result in millions of prematurely discarded garments, fueling landfill overflow and wasted resources.
While rental and resale models offer alternatives, they often fail to maintain garment quality, hindering true sustainability. Adding urgency are regulations like the EU's ban on disposing of repairable products, pushing brands to meet stricter standards.
PERCVD addresses these challenges by extending garment lifecycles through superior, PFA-free, water-free, and effluent-free protection. It preserves quality, reduces waste, and enhances functionality, bridging sustainability and performance. By keeping clothing in circulation longer, PERCVD empowers brands to meet environmental and consumer demands.
How it Works
PERCVD utilizes Plasma Enhanced Repeatable Chemical Vapor Deposition (PERCVD)
A water-free process that applies a nano coating to enhance garment performance at the fiber level. PERCVD works like a microwave, applying a nano-coating onto clothing to extend its lifespan. The process is simple and does not require specialized training or infrastructure, making it accessible to businesses of all sizes. It is as simple as hanging clothing inside the machine, selecting the desired functionalities and retrieving the ready to wear clothing once complete.
Functionalities That Can Be Applied
Durable Water Repellency (DWR)
Keeps garments dry and resistant to water damage
Easy Stain Release (ESR)
Allows stains to be easily washed out, without harsh chemicals
Enhanced Hygiene
Provides a sterile coating for optimal cleanliness
PERCVD preserves the garment’s hand feel, drapability, and color while being compatible with fasteners like zippers, labels, and buttons without altering them
Impact
Revolutionizing Textile Innovation Through Sustainability
PERCVD revolutionizes circular fashion by empowering the Recharge, Rental, and Resale markets to reduce environmental impact. It restores garments’ original functionality, extending their lifespan and complying with regulations against discarding repairable products. For rental businesses, PERCVD enhances durability, enabling efficient cleaning and longer circulation of rentals, which minimizes textile waste. In resale, it improves hygiene and functionality, elevating the quality of pre-owned garments to meet consumer expectations. Launched in the UK, PERCVD delivers impactful innovation that drives sustainability and redefines the future of fashion.
