iFabric launches Aura scrubs at major U.S. retailer

IFABRIC CORP. ANNOUNCES LAUNCH OF AURA SCRUBS AT U.S. NATIONAL MASS RETAILER

iFabric Corp.'s wholly owned subsidiary, Intelligent Fabric Technologies (North America) Inc. (IFTNA), is launching Aura, a new performance medical apparel scrubs line developed, branded and manufactured by IFTNA, in co-operation with a leading United States national mass retailer.

The Aura scrubs collection is launching in approximately 400 brick-and-mortar stores across the United States, together with availability on the retailer's well-established e-commerce platform. The company believes the program has the potential for expansion across additional stores, subject to consumer adoption, retail performance and continuing retailer planning.

Aura scrubs integrate two of IFTNA's flagship textile technologies: PROTX2, IFTNA's advanced antimicrobial technology, and ecoPEL, IFTNA's fluorine-free durable water-repellent technology. Together, these technologies are designed to deliver enhanced performance for healthcare professionals working in demanding clinical environments.

"This launch marks another important milestone in our mission to make clinically supported textile technologies more readily accessible to health care professionals," said Giancarlo Beevis, president and chief executive officer of IFTNA. "Aura brings together comfort, fit, function, and our class-leading PROTX2 and ecoPEL technologies in a product platform designed for everyday clinical use and delivered through one of the most important retail channels in the United States," added Mr. Beevis.

An IFTNA-sponsored clinical trial demonstrated statistically significant reductions in surface bacterial contamination on treated scrubs worn in real-world health care environments compared with untreated scrubs, as published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Hospital Infection and available on-line.

By integrating PROTX2 and ecoPEL into Aura scrubs, IFTNA is bringing the benefits of its clinically validated textile platform to a broader population of health care professionals through additional nationwide retail distribution.

"The clinical trial results were a defining moment for IFTNA because they demonstrated that our textile technologies can deliver measurable performance in real health care environments," continued Mr. Beevis. "With Aura, we are now translating those results into an additional highly accessible retail program that can reach more health care workers where they shop, both in stores and on-line," said Mr. Beevis

The launch of Aura represents the third major retailer to adopt IFTNA's technology-enhanced scrub platform and to partner with IFTNA beyond technology supply, including product development, branding, manufacturing and retail execution. The company believes this validates IFTNA's ability to deliver a complete end-to-end solution for major retail partners seeking differentiated, performance-driven medical apparel.

"Aura is not just another scrub launch," continued Mr. Beevis. "It reflects the full scope of what IFTNA can bring to retail partners: proprietary technologies, clinically proven performance, product design, sourcing, manufacturing, brand development and execution at scale. While we will let the retailer's, shelves do the talking over the coming quarters, we believe we'll hit the bulls-eye with this expansion," concluded Mr. Beevis

The Aura scrub assortment is expected to be available through the retailer's initial 400-store rollout and on the retailer's e-commerce platform.
