Tepso® “skin protector”

Textiles from this line are so thin that you barely feel them on your body. This is intended, for the shirts and light pants are worn under normal clothing to protect the skin against friction. So you can wear what you want and nonetheless do not have to fear skin irritation. This is both emotionally and physically good for you.

This is the foundation for underwear and leisure wear. In combination with the very low friction, the actively breathing material ensures very high wearing comfort and maximum well-being.

Tepso® “skin comfort”

The clothing made from Tepso® “skin comfort” material consists of two layers. The inner layer offers the known benefits of Tepso® and thereby protects the skin against additional irritation due to friction. On the outside, a layer on twined cotton ensures additional comfort.

Tepso® “bed”

Bedding on Tepso® “bed” material is the answer to sleepless nights with itching and pain for all persons affected by psoriasis or atopic dermatitis / eczema. A layer of Tepso® material is worked into the inside, while the outside ensures suitable well-being during sleep with cotton.

Study: proven effect of Tepso® psoriasis clothing and Tepso® eczema clothing

The medical efficacy of textiles for eczema cloting and psoriasis clothing is often ascribed merely to advertising effects. Tepso® psoriasis clothing and Tepso® eczema clothing, however, have a proven effect as our products have already been the object of a randomised study.

The study shows that socks with Tepso® give improvement in the disorder compared to wearing normal cotton socks. The study aimed to show whether wearing Tepso® socks result in an improvement of the disease compared to normal cotton socks.

The result is clear. The average lesions reduction rate is 42.6% with Tepso® and only 2.7% with cotton. The pathological condition is also judged significantly better. Furthermore, the overall satisfaction increases in daily life.

Study: Tepso® Compared

Patients with psoriasis pustulosa feel better with Tepso® psoriasis clothing, according to a medical study:

The medical efficacy of psoriasis clothing textiles is often ascribed merely to advertising effects. Tepso® psoriasis clothing is different as our products have already been the object of a randomised study. It was implemented on patients from the Dermatology Department at the Prato General Hospital, the Dermatology Department of the University of Tor Vergata in Rome, and the Dermatology Department of the San Raffaele in Milan, together with other Italian clinics. The study was to show whether socks with Tepso® would bring about an improvement in the disorder compared to wearing normal cotton socks.

How was the improvement to be measured?

Each of the study participants received 10 pairs of socks, of which one was made from normal cotton, and one from Tepso® fibre (polytetrafluorethylene). The following parameter was specified as the improvement marker:

  1. Percentile reduction of lesions after 4 weeks (primary);
  2. Physician’s assessment of lesion severity by a 6-point scale of the PGA;
  3. Assessment of pathological state by the patient;
  4. Effects on everyday life;
  5. Overall satisfaction as a tendency to one of the two socks.

In this manner, the intent was not only to determine whether the lesions could be relieved by less friction. The makers of the study also wanted to find out whether patient well-being would improve.

The results give reason for hope

The study showed some interesting results:

  • The average lesion reduction rate is 42.6 % with the Tepso® fibre and only 2.7 % with cotton.
  • Patients assess the average pathological state as 29.2 % better with Tepso®.
  • The assessments of the effects on daily life were also stated with an average improvement of 12.5%.
  • The improvement in overall satisfaction was stated with a median parameter of 20% in favour of Tepso®.

Fundamentally, it can therefore be noted that the well-being of patients with psoriasis or atopic dermatitis or eczema can be significantly improved in part by using adapted textiles. Furthermore, a statistically significant difference in the effects on lesion size was found between cotton socks and Tepso® socks.

Overall, it can be noted that suitable psoriasis clothing from Tepso® can help you rebuild a sense of positive well-being despite psoriasis or atopic dermatitis, eczema. Use this option of Tepso® psoriasis clothing or Tepso® eczema clothing!
