NouWell CDL | Natural freshness without biocides
Normally, odor-reducing finishes are achieved with biocides. This is not the case when using NouWell CDL. A natural freshness can be obtained without any antimicrobial properties.
Synthetic textiles in particular, such as functional underwear or upholstery fabrics, hardly adsorb odors, which is noticeable as unpleasant odors on the fabric. Here, NouWell CDL helps to complex unpleasant smelling substances and retain them until the next wash cycle, where they are removed.

An objective measurement of odour adsorbing properties is provided by ISO 17299-3 using gas chromatography. Here, the textiles are impregnated with isovaleric acid and the odor reduction rate is then determined by in-strumental analysis.
NouWell CDL is certified in accordance with Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, ZDHC and bluesign® among others.
