Specialists of the Don State Technical University conducted an analysis of insulated uniforms for drivers and recognized "Holofiber" as the best choice for truckers.

The research paper «Technical and economic characteristics of clothing for use by drivers of long-distance vehicles in cold conditions » identifies trends in recent years that affect the assortment policy of uniform manufacturers, the selection of materials for the production of workwear, as well as consumer priorities depending on  the cost and performance characteristics of finished products and components, among which a special role is assigned to insulation.

The pricing of insulated workwear is mainly influenced by the insulation used in the product. Comparing the data, the scientists concluded that the most expensive at present is clothing, in which goose down is used as a filler. The cheapest clothes with sintepon. Protective suits with the use of insulation "Holofiber" are recognized as the most successful in terms of "price" properties, it is their specialists who recommendfor the uniforms of long-distance transport drivers.

The research was presented in St. Petersburg at the recently held International Scientific and Practical Conference "Fundamental and Applied Research: experience, problems and prospects". The author of the analysis Maxim Klimenkoworks under the guidance of one of the most authoritative Russian experts in the field of thermal insulation, Professor, Doctor of Technical Sciences Irina Cherunova. In her long-term research, she formulated the theoretical foundations of the integrated design of special heat-protective clothing, taking into account the concept of energy security of the state and labor protection of an individual employee.

Manufacturer of nonwovens «Holofiber» plant «Thermopol» – since 2005 has been conducting research in the field of high-performance thermal insulation in the range of «Arctic»/«Desert» (+60 S° / –60 S°), oversees and supports scientific conferences and symposiums, systematically interacts with domestic and foreign laboratories. High-tech developments "Holofiber" undergo research modeling, certification and testing before serial implementation, which ensures the success of each new product under this brand on the market.
