Microencapsulated Products
The R-Vital technology enables the transfer of many beneficial antioxidants and aromatherapeutic agents such as ubiquinol, aloe vera, vitamin E, vitamin C, CBD, argan oil, and others to textile products through microencapsulation.
Especially the antioxidants found in our skin may decrease due to various reasons such as external factors, lifestyle, and aging, leading to an increase in free radicals.
The concept of free radicals refers to an atom or group of atoms that has an unpaired electron, making it unstable and highly reactive. Free radicals steal an electron from a neighboring molecule to balance themselves, causing the molecules to become free radicals themselves. This excessive process increases the number of free radicals, accelerating the aging process of the skin.
Antioxidants are the body's natural defense mechanism against free radicals. They neutralize free radicals by donating electrons, rendering them harmless and preventing damage to DNA. Components such as CoQ10 and Ubiquinol are important antioxidants.
Coenzyme Q10 is an important antioxidant compound that naturally occurs in the body and helps reduce the harmful effects of free radicals on cells. Ubiquinol is an easily absorbable form of CoQ10, an active antioxidant compound found throughout our body
The benefits of Ubiquinol
It donates electrons to neutralize free radicals and regenerates weak antioxidants to render them harmless.
It enhances energy production/transportation in the mitochondria.

How does it work?
Our skin is the largest organ in our body, making it an ideal vehicle for such rejuvenating solutions.
The active ingredients are contained within microcapsules and applied to the fabric. When the treated textiles come into contact with our skin, the capsules break upon friction, releasing the active ingredients to nourish our skin. Advanced compounds like CoQ10, Ubiquinol, and others are absorbed by our skin and utilized to balance free radicals.

In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in the frequency of allergic diseases worldwide. The most important reason for this is dust mites and animal dander. Therefore, sensitivity to cats and dogs negatively affects the quality of life.
Purissimo allows for distancing from allergens that trigger allergic reactions. The Purissimo technology is based on encapsulated forms of probiotics, the beneficial bacteria similar to those found in yogurt.
Biological Sourced Product: PURISSIMO®NTL
What makes Purissimo®NTL unique and different from the standard Purissimo series is its capsule shell made of natural cross-linked biobased polymer.
The capsules are up to 97% biobased and can be easily biodegraded.
How does it work?
First, the textile product is treated with microcapsules containing natural probiotics. When these microcapsules burst due to friction between human skin and the textile, the probiotics released from inside become activated and start to multiply. These probiotic cultures consume allergens present on the textile surface as food, effectively cleaning the textile surface in a way.
Test Results Conducted in Independent Laboratories
An example | Sample No. | Initial Allergen Level | Allergen Level After 14 Days | Reduction [%] |
Cat (F. domesticus) hair 180206-07. | K1 | 236 mg of cat hair = 20.5 μg of Fel d1 | 15,4 μg Fel d1 | 0 |
Purissimo Probiotics + Cat (F. domesticus) hair 180206-07. | K2 | 236 mg of cat hair = 20.5 μg of Fel d1 | 1,1 μg Fel d1 | 92,8 |
Dog (C. familiaris) hair 180206-07 | D1 | 236 mg of dog hair = 20.5 μg of Can f 1 | 14,4 μg Can f 1 | 0 |
Purissimo Probiotics & Dog (C. familiaris) hair 180206-07 | D2 | 236 mg of dog hair = 20.5 μg of Can f 1 | 4,8 μg Can f 1 | 66,7 |
cat
According to the test results, the amount of allergen in the Purissimo + Cat hair sample shown as K2 was found to be 92.8% lower than the Fel d1 allergen in the normal K1 cat hair.
Dog
In the sample containing Purissimo + dog hair named D2, the amount of Can f1 allergen was found to be 66.7% lower compared to the sample D1 without probiotics.
