Production at Trigema

Our Materials

Depending on the intended use, a variety of high-quality materials are used in our production in the three TRIGEMA plants. For example, we use organic qualities from certified organic cultivation for particularly sustainable and environmentally friendly products from the TRIGEMA ChangeĀ® collection. We use our comfortable and durable cotton qualities for our popular basics such as T-shirts and polo shirts, which can be combined into versatile outfits both in everyday work and leisure time. Mixed fabrics combine the advantages of different fibres and are used, for example, in sweatshirts and underwear. Depending on the fiber used, the stretchability and shape stability are increased, as well as the air permeability as well as the ability to store heat and create a cuddly soft feel. Our polyester qualities ensure highly functional wear properties such as breathability, ideal moisture transport, fast drying, sun protection and a reduction in skin temperature and pulse. Below you will find a comprehensive overview of all current TRIGEMA materials as well as their properties and applications.
