A cold, flexible, washable light layer opens apparel categories a rigid LED never could: fashion, performance, safety, and entertainment.
Trace a seam, light a logo, bring a panel of a garment to life. VynEL gives fashion labels an even, controllable glow in 11 colors that reads as couture, not costume, and survives the wash to stay in a customer's wardrobe.
Flexible and 1mm (0.04in) thin, VynEL flexes with the body through full range of motion. Light up a running jacket or a training kit for low-light visibility, with no heat and no rigid pack to fight the fit.
Hi-vis apparel relies on reflecting someone else's headlights. VynEL emits its own even light, washes clean, and holds an IP67 rating, so a worker or rider is seen in conditions where reflective tape goes dark.
Already used by Hollywood costume departments, theatrical designers, and performers. The light is cold, even, and free of RF interference, so it holds up on camera and under stage lights for hours on a battery pack.
Parallel 13 is a premium lighted-apparel brand built on VynEL. It is the clearest evidence that this is not a lab demo or a one-off prop: it is a lighting technology already engineered into a real, sellable product line.
For a corporate innovation team, Parallel 13 answers the first question that matters. Can this survive being manufactured, worn, washed, and sold at a premium? The product is the answer.
