Snickers Workwear 37.5 Technology®


Top athletes have long enjoyed the benefits of performance wear. Now craftsmen can too. Snickers Workwear is one of the first workwear manufacturers to introduce 37.5® Technology into its clothing.

Now a new line of workwear based on 37.5® Technology can improve a craftsman’s performance. The name comes from the ideal relative humidity of the microclimate close to the skin and the average person’s ideal core body temperature. With 37.5 technology, patented active particles permanently embedded at the fiber level capture and release moisture vapor. Not only do these active particles provide 800% more surface area to the fiber, they also provide a unique driving force to remove moisture vapor unlike any other technology. By actively responding to body heat, the active particles use this energy from the body to accelerate the vapor movement and speed up the conversion of liquid to vapor, significantly increasing drying rates. This means the hotter the user gets, the stronger the driving force removing moisture becomes—and the more comfortable the garment remains.


Haggquist - the founder of 37.5 Technology® - discovered that embedding activated carbon in fabrics sped up the conversion of liquid to vapour, cooling you down when it is hot and warming you up when it is cold. Unlike conventional moisture-management fabrics, 37.5® Technology is all about preventing sweating in the first place.

“The problem with fabrics that absorb moisture is that they solve the problem after it has arisen; you sweat, and then they start to work,” he says. “That’s too late. You want a fabric that knows what your body needs in advance.”


Benefits of 37.5 Technology®


  • 37.5 Technology® works to keep the optimum relative humidity in your microclimate so your body more efficiently maintains an ideal core temperature, enabling you to perform better, longer.
  • Fabrics made with 37.5 technology dry up to five times faster than similar fabrics, diminishing wet cling.
  • 37.5 technology is made with naturally derived materials so there are no harsh chemicals to irritate your skin.
  • 37.5 active particles are permanently embedded into yarn and will never wash out or degrade.


The Importance of Testing

Snickers Workwear did both lab tests and live user tests on 37.5® before including the technology in its product range. “We have had very positive feedback from users, highlighting the improved comfort of the fabric, especially under warmer conditions,” Lundberg says.

“This ground-breaking state-of-the-art technology fits nicely into our strategy of offering the best workwear on the market, aimed at improving the user’s efficiency and comfort,” Lundberg says. “It has unique features, and it feels great to be one of the first workwear manufacturers to launch it on the market.”


This technology suits our workwear perfectly with its superior absorption capabilities. We tested several similar technologies available on the market, but none of them was as responsive as 37.5®. This makes 37.5 ® Technology suitable in many different kinds of garments – trousers, underwear and t-shirts as well as jackets.”
