Why does Thermafleece need a synthetic lofting agent?
A lofting agent is required to ensure that the insulation maintains its shape and entraps air throughout its service life. There are no natural materials available that can do this, so we use a lofting agent composed of polyester. Every effort has been taken to ensure that the virgin polyester content of the product is kept to a minimum. Thermafleece contains 7.5% recycled polyester and 7.5% virgin polyester.
