4-LAYER-TECHNOLOGY
The POM technology is both simple and leading edge. The POM underwear is made up of 4 layers:
Collapsible content
LAYER 1 - ABSORBING
The first layer material is made from cotton which is moisture-wicking and absorbs liquid very quickly. It is also made with a SilverClear® additive. SilverClear is a highly efficient antimicrobial, bactericidal and anti-odour solution. It is ecological, safe and non-toxic. It effectively destroys the bacteria, mould and fungi that cause odour, discolouration and degradation of garments, helping them to also last longer.
LAYER 2 - LIQUID STORAGE
The second layer material is terry fabric, 70% cotton, 30% polyester. The function is to further absorb and hold liquid.
LAYER 3. - LEAK-PROOF
The third layer material is TPU fabric, 100% polyester. The function is anti-leaking, providing a leak-proof layer. It does this by pushing the liquid back up so it does not seep through to the outer layer.
LAYER 4 - COMFY OUTER FABRIC
The fourth layer material is either cotton or an organic bamboo fabric both very comfortable and breathable meaning they are soft on your skin.
