Together with Swedish materials technology company Disruptive Materials, Eleiko introduces Performance Liquid Chalk containing sports grade Upsalite®, a patented mesoporous magnesium carbonate.
The Performance Liquid Chalk can absorb twice the amount of moisture than competing liquid chalks. Backed by science, the liquid chalk provides an enhanced grip with minimal residue on equipment, fast application and dry time, and optimal moisture absorption.
Upsalite is a patented innovation, stemming from state-of-the-art research from Uppsala University, Sweden. Upsalite offers excellent moisture uptake and has a supremely high surface area as compared to other earth metal carbonates, resulting in its unique absorption capacity. It is synthesized from naturally derived minerals and is considered additive free and safe.
Combining Eleiko’s knowledge and passion for lifting with Disruptive Materials’ strong foundation in science and innovation, Eleiko Performance Liquid Chalk is designed to meet the demands of today’s lifters, providing a hassle-free chalking up experience and scientifically engineered enhanced grip.
Erik Blomberg, CEO, Eleiko
Compared to other leading liquid chalks, Eleiko Performance Liquid Chalk with Upsalite absorbs twice the moisture for increased friction and grip on the bar. The alcohol-based and resin-free chalk evaporates quickly, leaving hands with even coverage with a single application. No dusting, minimal residue on equipment and a high alcohol percentage benefits both users and facilities, leaving chalk only where you want it.
The collaboration between a prominent performance brand such as Eleiko together with our scientific approach to product formulation including our unique, patented material Upsalite®, has been the key factor to merge performance and science. Together, we maximize value for the end user with Eleiko Performance Liquid Chalk, including Upsalite.
