Melbourne start up launches world’s first seamless women’s compression range

Melbourne based start up Supacore is aiming to revolutionise the sports industry by launching an innovative sports compression range which is aimed at reducing the cost of injury in sport.

The patented technology can improve core stability and aid with the recovery of hamstring, lower back and groin related injuries. This is achieved from a unique knitting process that reinforces high stress areas of the body particularly focusing on the core and other key muscle areas.

Explaining the innovation, Supacore Global Brand Manager Keshia Hutchens commented “the women’s active sports category is very crowded and dominated by major global players, which was why it was imperative that we cut through with our innovation.”

The range is available at online and consists of technical garments focussing on training, recovery and injury recovery- all developed from the patented technology which was granted this year.

Supacore brings the following innovation to the market:

• Patented technology: Assists with hamstring, lower back and groin/overuse injury recovery and improves core support and stability.
• Seamlessly knitted body-mapping compression: Focused support of major muscle groups, resulting in less muscle soreness and soft tissue damage.
• Ribtech: Mimics kinesiology-taping techniques and provides a gentle massage while the body is in motion.
• Supa X®: engineered compression focussing on shoulder blade (mid trapezius) to enhance posture, improve breathing and endurance.

Supacore products are used by Wallaroo Oneata Schwalger and gymnast Alex Cullen.

Supacore launched its men’s range in 2015 and is supplying to English football teams Arsenal, Chelsea, Southampton and QPR; US college football teams and football clubs across Asia.
