With regard to the improvemento of functionality the variety is incredible. There are from textiles that collect the energy from vibration when moving, heat or those who monitorize corporal functions as your beats, if you have a fever, if you are sweating too much and a long etcetera. In this category we find also those textiles with antimicrobial coatings that avoid bacteria growing, anti-stain that repel from mud to orange juice.
