The fabric Light-Tech REC made of recycled material is, like Light-Tech II, mainly used for the manufacturing of so-called cleanroom-compatible intermediate garments (undergarments).
As with Light-Tech II, the low mass per unit area combined with its extremely pleasant touch (similar to silk) are the special features of this fabric.

Product recommendation based on cleanroom classes
Cleanroom suitable undergarments made of Light-Tech REC can basically be worn in any cleanroom class area.
Various studies have shown that the use of a suitable cleanroom-suitable intermediate garment can reduce both the microbiological contamination and the number of possible particulate impurities by 50% and more.
