– Simultaneous awards in the environment, innovation, and R&D categories for AirTech and UV color change technology.
Completion of the smart factory within the year, establishment of an in-house production and mass production system for AirTech packages.
Lifestyle tech company Coversummon (CVSM, CEO Jaeho Lee) announced that it won three categories at the 'Just Style Excellence Awards 2025' hosted by the British textile and fashion media 'Just Style'.
The Just Style Excellence Awards are a prestigious award recognizing companies in the global textile and fashion industries for their innovation and sustainability. Coverthermon received awards in the Innovation, Environment, and Research and Development (R&D) categories in recognition of its commercialization of air insulation technology and its research capabilities in next-generation materials.
Coverthermon has been recognized for its innovative and eco-friendly technology, "Air Tech," which it developed. Air Tech injects air into a flexible fiber structure to create warmth and volume, replacing conventional down and synthetic fillings.
In particular, Airtech technology has been proven to have a thermal insulation performance of 94% compared to existing goose down by the domestic accredited testing agency 'FITI Testing & Research Institute', and is currently supplied to global fashion brands such as PAF (Post Archive Faction), 3.PARADIS, and Descente, securing technological marketability and product reliability.
In addition, "UV Color Change," a photochromic technology that changes yarn color when exposed to UV rays, has garnered attention in the R&D sector. UV Color Change is designed to react within the yarn, rather than through a surface coating, ensuring color changes persist even after repeated exposure and remain stable without deterioration even after long-term wear or washing.
Going forward, Coversummon plans to continue developing next-generation functional materials and expanding its smart fiber lineup. Furthermore, it plans to complete a smart factory within the year to produce its own AirTech kits and establish a system for quality standardization and large-scale product launches.
CoverSermon CEO Lee Jae-ho said, “This award is a meaningful result that the functional material technology that CoverSermon has focused on has been recognized in the overseas market,” and added, “We will continue to enhance our material technology and product development capabilities to expand our competitiveness in the global market.”
Meanwhile, Coversummon has been recognized for its air material technology in the European market, and in January, it collaborated with the French brand '3.PARADIS' at Paris Fashion Week to present two jackets featuring air tech, drawing attention from the local industry. Recently, the '3.PARADIS X KEEK Inflatable Jacket' from the F/W collection was newly released and is currently being sold on the 3.PARADIS official online store.
