New Proprietary Fabric Innovation Delivers Lasting Freshness and Comfort for a Better Night's Sleep

HONG KONG, July 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Casablanca, a leading name in the bedding industry and one of Hong Kong's most trusted home textile brands, has been dedicated to providing high-quality sleep solutions for more than three decades. Building on the success of its CASA-V 7A bedding collection, the company continues to expand its proprietary textile innovations with a focus on comfort, freshness and hygiene. The collection combines advanced antibacterial protection, lasting freshness and exceptional comfort to create a comfortable and hygienic sleep environment. Over the past year, the concept behind CASA-V 7A, powered by its proprietary 7A Physical Antibacterial Technology, has gained increasing recognition in the market. Building on that foundation, Casablanca today introduced its latest innovation for 2026 — the CASA-V 7A Uplift Dry & Glow Series, a quick-dry bedding collection designed to deliver enhanced moisture management, breathability and all-night freshness.

A Proprietary Quick-Dry Solution Designed for Humid Climates

Hong Kong's year-round heat and humidity, conditions common across much of Southeast Asia, create ongoing challenges for bedding care. During the rainy season, humidity levels in many regions can frequently exceed 80% or 90%, making it difficult for sheets and bedding to dry completely after washing. As a result, many households may continue using the same bedding longer than recommended during extended humid periods, potentially creating hygiene concerns. Even after washing, conventional bedding materials can retain moisture for extended periods because of limited drying performance and persistently high humidity, which can lead to unpleasant odors and bacterial growth.

These challenges are particularly common in tropical markets such as Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam and Indonesia, where clothing and bedding may take several days to dry even indoors. Persistent dampness can also contribute to musty odors and mildew, creating conditions similar to Hong Kong's prolonged humid season.

Casablanca has long been committed to developing bedding solutions that address the changing needs of consumers. In recent years, the Group has made quick-dry bedding one of its key research priorities, reflecting growing demand for products better suited to humid climates.

The new Uplift Dry & Glow Series is designed to address the challenges of humid weather. Created with the needs of consumers in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia in mind, the collection combines freshness, comfort and easy-care performance to help families enjoy a more relaxed sleep experience regardless of weather conditions.

At the heart of the series is a specially engineered fabric blend featuring 45% Modal and 55% polyester. This carefully balanced composition creates a new generation of quick-dry bedding that accelerates moisture evaporation while maintaining a soft, breathable feel. The series combines the exceptional softness, moisture-wicking performance, breathability, shrink resistance and wash durability of TENCEL™ Modal fibers from Lenzing, Austria, with the durability and thermal comfort of polyester fibers. Together, these materials create a fabric that dries quickly, stays fresh and delivers lasting comfort, allowing users to enjoy restful sleep without worrying about the effects of persistent humidity.

Key Features of CASA-V 7A Uplift Dry & Glow Series (AU)

1. Moisture Absorbent and Breathable 
Modal absorbs 50% more moisture than cotton and dries quickly, keeping you dry and comfortable all year round. With a high Water Absorption Rate of 108% (surpassing the ≥80% standard) and drying Rate of 0.34 g/h (well above the ≥0.20 g/h requirement). By accelerating evaporation, it prevents the fabric from becoming heavy or dull with moisture. This ensures the material remains light, breathable, and radiantly fresh even during active use.

2. In-house R&D | Premium Craftsmanship
Developed with H-shaped polyester fibers, this innovative material features a unique cross-section resembling the letter "H". Its core advantages lie in the high-efficiency moisture-wicking properties provided by its grooves, as well as enhanced loft, warmth, and excellent dyeability achieved through increased spacing between fibers. Simultaneously, it retains the fundamental characteristics of polyester, including high strength, wear resistance, wrinkle resistance, and quick-drying capabilities. It is widely applied across three major fields: apparel, home textiles, and industrial textiles. 

3. Ultimate smoothness
Modal is known as "second skin" because of its silky smooth texture and excellent skin-friendliness. 

4. Durable and washable
It does not shrink or deform easily, becomes softer with each wash, and is not prone to pilling. 

5. Lustrous 
Due to its intentional dyeing properties, the fabric has a particularly bright color and excellent luster. 

6. Healthier Sleep
7A Antibacterial Technology, Anti-Aromatic amines, Anti-Mite, Anti-Odor, Anti-Fungal, Anti-Virus and Thermostatic Fiber, it is undoubtedly another level of healthy sleep experience in style. 

Breakthrough 7A Physical Antibacterial Technology: Maintains Antibacterial Performance After 150 Washes
Casablanca's proprietary 7A technology represents the brand's latest innovation in textile protection, designed to provide long-lasting antibacterial and odor-control performance. The technology also helps address concerns associated with textile dyeing by promoting the decomposition of aromatic amine compounds associated with azo dyes. By integrating seven protective functions into a single system, CASA-V 7A technology is designed to support a cleaner, more hygienic and more comfortable sleep environment.

Antibacterial Mechanism of CASA-V 7A Far-Infrared Technology
CASA-V 7A's antibacterial performance is based on far-infrared resonance technology, which is designed to impart antibacterial properties to textile materials while maintaining their original physical characteristics and processing performance.

The far-infrared material primarily emits radiation in the 8–14 μm wavelength range, while the textile material exhibits an absorption range of approximately 4–12 μm. Far-infrared waves, which fall within the electromagnetic spectrum between 4 and 1,000 μm, interact with the engineered textile material through a resonance effect. When the emitted and absorbed wavelength ranges overlap, resonance occurs between the far-infrared radiation and the textile fibers. This interaction, together with thermal effects, is intended to enhance the material's antibacterial performance.

Textiles produced using this technology maintain an antibacterial effectiveness rate of 88% to 98% after 150 washing cycles. Test results indicate that all measured parameters comply with the requirements of the T/GDBX056-2022 7A standard.

7A Anti-Bacterial Sleep Technology: The Best Choice for Protecting High-Quality Sleep
Designed for high-quality sleep, combining advanced technology with comfort to make every night's rest an enjoyable experience. Let the 7A Anti-Bacterial Sleep Technology protect you and your loved ones every night, making every sleep a top-quality experience. 

1. 7A Antibacterial Technology
   Through the Principle of Far-Infrared Resonance Absorption, Ordinary textiles are transformed into materials with antibacterial and antimicrobial functions. The beddings maintain their original physical and processing properties, and after 150 destructive washes tested and certified by national standards, the antibacterial and antimicrobial efficacy is still guaranteed at an effective rate of 88-98%. Achieving the 7A grade of antibacterial textiles, they can maintain excellent antibacterial effects, ensuring long-term antibacterial performance to protect the health of you and your family.  
2. Anti-Aromatic Amines
   Capable of breaking down harmful aromatic amines, protecting you from potential carcinogens, making every breath you take safe and worry-free.
