Polyester properties:
This fabric offers a good abrasion as well as chemical resistance. Polyester may easily substitute wool, since it keeps us warm, but is lighter and dries more easily than wool besides being crease-resistant. Polyester is however a little coarser to the touch than most textiles; it also doesn’t resist heat and retains odours.

Acrylic properties:
Acrylic is a warm material often used for winter gear. This fabric substitutes quite well wool, since it is more cost-effective, dries easily and quickly and keeps us warm and dry. In turns, it is not as resistant as wool and tends to pill to create a raised effect.

This fixed polymer structure delivers among other things its significant elasticity, its flexibility, its high tensile strength and its excellent barrier performance to viruses and blood borne pathogens.
