Scranton, Pennsylvania (January 7, 2026) — Golfers may recognize the brands on their polos, but chances are they’ve never heard of the technology doing the heavy lifting. At the 2026 PGA Show running from January 20-23, Noble Biomaterials, the global leader in antimicrobial and conductive material technologies, will step into the spotlight as one of the key vendors helping redefine performance fabrics in golf.
Known for its Ionic+® antimicrobial technology, Noble is partnering with leading apparel brands to solve one of golf’s most persistent problems: odor. Bacteria trapped in fabrics are the primary cause of lingering smells, especially during long days on the course. Noble’s mineral-powered Ionic+® Pro yarn and Ionic+® Botanical technologies can eliminate up to 99% of odor-causing bacteria so golfers can play 36 holes and head straight to dinner without a second thought.
“Golf demands apparel that performs far beyond the 18th hole,” said Allon Cohne, Ionic+® SVP and Noble Biomaterials CMO. “Noble exists to help brands deliver that next level of performance: comfort, freshness, and durability that lasts into the clubhouse, dinner and whatever comes next.”
Already trusted by premium partners such as Rhoback, Mack Weldon, lululemon, and Sun Day Red, Noble’s technologies are quietly embedded in some of today’s most innovative golf and performance apparel. At the PGA Show, Noble will highlight its entire Ionic+® material platform with yarn and fabric finish technologies that include color, cooling, and long-term freshness.
The company will also spotlight new 2026 partnerships with Asia technical fabric providers Chuanyue and Xiwei, showcasing first-to-market Sorona® and Ionic+® performance fabrics.
At the PGA Show, Noble will offer attendees an inside look at the materials shaping the future of golf and racquet sports apparel, proving that the highest level of performance often comes from the technology you never see.
