Technology and Research

Motion apparel is designed to be functional and practical. We are strong believers in making a product long-wearing and durable, so using quality fabrics and process along with real attention to detail is paramount.We believe the best way to ensure this is by testing our garments on our sponsored teams and athletes, learning from the feedback and refining for your use – making them perfect for active and casual wear.

Motion garments are specifically designed to help regulate the body’s temperature, transferring moisture from the skin and providing a vital aid in performance and comfort in all conditions.

We also ensure that our yarns provide natural sun protection wherever possible along with odour management and quick drying functionality.

Celliant® products contain a patented, natural blend of minerals which recycle the body's own energy. The nano-size particles are encased inside every yarn so they will never wash out. They absorb and reflect light and heat and transform this energy into far-infrared light, which the body can absorb. Far-infrared light expands the capillaries, drawing more oxygen to the area where Celliant® products are worn.

Research shows that when tissue oxygenation and circulation are increased it can enhance athletic performance and recovery, speed healing, reduce soreness, and help balance body temperature. The effects of wearing Celliant® products have been shown in a series of clinical trials, which can be viewed on the Celliant® Website.

Celliant® Energy Textiles are a revolutionary innovation to all who are seeking increased circulation and heightened oxygenation for comfort, performance, and recovery.

Coconut Carbon Made from Coconuts

Motion Coconut Carbon performance technology is based on activated carbon which is derived from coconut shells, a renewable resource. Each year billions of coconuts are produced to support the food, cosmetic, medical and filtration industries. Motion Coconut Carbon technology uses coconut husk waste - waste that would otherwise have gone to landfill — to produce activated carbon making the fabric very eco-friendly.

Aids Moisture Management and Drying Times

The vast pore structure on the surface of the Motion activated carbon increases the surface area of the coconut yarn. Which creates a better wicking effect on perspiration, picking it quickly up off the skin.

Odour Management

Motion activated carbon provides odour management by the process of adsorption. The Motion activated carbon is essentially full of holes. Organic odour molecules from the air are attracted into the pores and attach to the carbon surface. These contaminants accumulate on the carbon's interior surface, instead of finding their way into your nose. When the pores get full, they can be refreshed and the odors released from heated washing and drying.

UV Protection

Motion Coconut Carbon yarn also provides natural sun protection. Motion Activated carbon absorbs harmful UVA and UVB rays, increasing the sun protection factor of the fabric.

Washable and Permanent

Unlike some topical treatments, Motion Coconut Carbon technology is contained inside the fibers. This helps retain the fabric’s performance over the life time of the garment.

Natural and Sustainable

Motion Coconut Carbon technology provides a natural, sustainable solution for fabric performance needs.

CHARACTERISTICS: Motion Coconut Carbon

• Rapidly pulls moisture away from skin
• Spreads the moisture across the surface of the fabric to increase evaporation and dry time
• Attracts and traps odours, then releases trapped odors when washed
• UPF 30+ to 50+ sun protection
• Odor molecules are released
• The benefits of carbon are refreshed with the heat from washing and drying
• Eco-Friendly

CoolPlus yarn is a functional fibre, which transports perspiration from the skin and helps to keep it feeling healthy. It applies the capillary action resulting from the micro-slits in the fibre’s surface to rapidly absorb the sweat from skin surface, diffusing it to a larger area through several actions wicking, diffusing and transporting, This allows for a far quicker drying time allowing the fabric to dry much faster. At the same time, the air permeability of the fibre is applied to release the hot air out of the body and therefore keeping the skin fresh and cool.

Features Coolplus

• Keeps your skin dry, under any activity
• Maintains coolness in summer
• Quick drying & breathable
• Comfortable

Compression garments are designed to help you on numerous levels during and post exercise. They help boost your performances, delay fatigue during your effort, helps prevent muscle tears and injuries, maximizes your recovery time between sessions.

During Exercise

MOTION ACTIVE is used primarily to help enhance your performance and avoid muscle tears. Compression also provides an acceleration of the venous return from the feet to the heart. This considerably reduces the buildup of toxins in the legs, especially whilst exercising for long periods. Muscles therefore benefit from improved oxygenation and recovery during the effort. This will ensure, longer high impact training sessions, less fatigue and a quicker recovery time ensuring better adaptation from your training stimulus.

The MOTION ACTIVE Compression

The garment is medically graded fabric fibre yarn 15-20mmhg & designed to reduce shock waves and vibrations that are generated when cycling or running, thereby helping to prevent tearing in the muscle fibre’s which can create pain. This gives rise to efficiency against aches, contractures, micro tears & can help in the delay of muscle fatigue and the risk of injury whilst exercising.

Compression garments are designed to help you on numerous levels during and post exercise. They help boost your performances, delay fatigue during your effort, helps prevent muscle tears and injuries, maximize your recovery time between sessions.

Post Exercise

MOTION RECOVERY is used for post exercise or travelling, the Recovery fabric fibre Yarns 20-30mmhg applies more compression than our active product & continues to apply its actions of venous return acceleration whilst recovering, it helps in the elimination of toxins & flushing of Blood lactates that get produced during exercise along with continual support to your muscles. Reducing swelling & stiffness ensuring quicker recovery & better adaptation from your training stimulus?

The MOTION RECOVERY COMPRESSION

Garment is a medically graded Fabric fibre Yarn & designed to reduce shock waves and vibrations that are generated when cycling or running, thereby helping to prevent tearing in the muscle fibre’s creating referred pain. This gives rise to efficiency against aches, contractures, micro tears & can delay muscle fatigue and the risk of injury whilst exercising.

Microfibre fabric is often used for athletic wear, such as cycling jerseys, because the microfibre material wicks moisture (sweat) away from the body, keeping the wearer cool and dry. Microfibre is also very elastic, making it suitable for undergarments.
