Thermals vs “Just One More Layer”: The warmth myth, explained

Chandigarh, Dec 30:- When winter sets in, the first instinct is often to reach for “just one more layer.” A sweater over a tee, a jacket on top, and maybe even a scarf thrown in for good measure. It seems practical, but it does not always keep the body truly warm. What matters is not the number of layers, but the type of layers chosen.

Thermals work in a way regular clothing cannot. They hug the skin, trap a thin layer of heat, and manage moisture so the body stays dry. Extra layers only add bulk, and when they hold sweat, they can leave a person feeling chilled instead of snug. Let’s see why thermals make a bigger difference than simply adding “one more layer.”

Heat retention begins at the base layer

On cold mornings when one steps out for a quick walk, a commute, or even a grocery run, the first layer decides how warm and relaxed the body stays. Adding thermal-wear like the ultra warmth full sleeve thermal top by Jockey as the base layer changes how winter dressing feels. Made with soft touch microfiber elastane stretch fleece it holds in body heat without adding weight. StayWarm Technology keeps the temperature balanced from within, while StayFresh Treatment helps control odour through long hours. With colours like skin, black, and classic white, it blends easily under any winter outfit and makes layering smoother than relying on “just one more layer.”

The smarter winter bottom

Stacking layers below the waist can feel reassuring at first, but once the day gets moving, those extra layers often trap sweat and make the body feel colder. This is why bulky winter bottoms may work briefly but fall short during real life movements like brisk walks, metro rides, or rushing between meetings. The ultra warmth thermal leggings offer a smarter alternative. Designed to sit close to the skin, the microfiber elastane stretch fleece helps create steady insulation without feeling heavy or tight. The leggings allow easy movement and pair well with other winter layers, making them a versatile essential for the season.

All-day warmth needs balance, not bulk

During a busy winter day, the body needs steady insulation without feeling closed off. A good thermal ensures this by keeping heat close while allowing natural air flow. The extra warmth full sleeve thermal set is designed for full-day comfort. The super combed cotton rich fabric feels gentle on the skin, and the StayWarm Technology maintains consistent insulation without feeling stuffy. With StayFresh anti-microbial properties that helps control odour, a concealed waistband and colors like charcoal melange and black, this set keeps the body cozy and fresh through long hours without depending on multiple layers.

In the end, winter dressing is less about piling on layers and more about choosing the right ones. Thermals create a foundation that works with the body rather than against it, letting every layer above perform its job. They keep movement effortless, daily routines simple, and long outings manageable, proving that a smarter base layer makes all the difference in navigating the season with ease and confidence.

In 2025, two new iconic Yatras were inaugurated. One recreated the journey to the Vaishno Devi shrine situated in the Trikuta Mountains in the Himalayas, and the second one aimed at Enlightening everyone with the Truth of Sanatana Dharma  the beginningless and endless faith, the ancient way of life.

On New Year’s Day, guests can engage in a range of unique Abhishek rituals, Aarti, Bhajans, meditative activities or anything else that contributes to inner peace and Enlightenment.

AiR  Atman in Ravi, the visionary founder of the temple, shared, ‘As we enter into this New Year, we celebrate Lord Shiva as the essence of the endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth; thus, creating room for the new while dissolving the old.

HPWWI Convocates Its First-Ever Women Batch in the Woodworking Sector

Faridabad, Dec 26: The Hettich Poddar WoodWorking Institute (HPWWI) held the Convocation and Award Ceremony for their first-ever batch of women trainees in Woodworking , marking a key moment in women’s participation within the Woodworking and furniture and fittings sector , as this is also India’s first Girls batch in this sector.

Held at Hotel Park Plaza, Faridabad, the ceremony recognised 108 graduating students, including 50 women trainees, who completed HPWWI’s three-month Short-Term Training (STT – Mobilized) programme. For many of the women graduates, the programme represented their first formal entry into a highly technical and traditionally male-dominated trade, thus girls were given the “Ice Breaker Award’ for the courage shown by them.

The initiative reflects HPWWI’s belief that access to technical skills should not be limited by gender, and that expanding women’s participation is essential to building a more inclusive, resilient, and future-ready workforce. By creating an industry-aligned environment, HPWWI aims to open sustainable career pathways for women while bridging the skill gaps within the woodworking ecosystem.

The ceremony was graced by Mr. Amit Prasad, Director HPWWI and Chief Human Resources Officer, Hettich India, as Guest of Honour. In his address, he emphasized the significance of structured, industry-aligned pathways for skilling. 

“At HPWWI, our objective is not just skill creation, but inclusive skill creation. By enabling women to enter technical trades through structured training and real industry exposure, we are working towards a more balanced and future-ready workforce – one where opportunity is driven by capability, not convention,” he said.

Graduates received certifications recognised by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and the Furniture and Fitting Skill Council (FFSC). Along with HPWWI certification the awards included the Medal of Merit, and the Ice Breaker Award, as already stated.

The program’s curriculum combines skill enhancement with the latest woodworking trends, techniques, and technologies, delivered by highly experienced trainers. Trainees receive extensive hands-on exposure, including training on modern machine handling such as CNCs and pneumatic tools, ensuring strong industry readiness.

Reflecting HPWWI’s strong industry connect, 15 to 20 students received on-the-spot offer letters from placement partners such as StudioKon Ventures Pvt. Ltd., Decora Kitchen Interiors Pvt. Ltd., Delbergia, Wudley, Mobel Grace, among others.

The cohort included students hailing from Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan, Punjab, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh, with 30 trainees from underprivileged backgrounds, underlining HPWWI’s CSR-led focus on widening access to skill development and employment. Operating across three centres in India located in Mumbai, Faridabad, and Kolkata, HPWWI continues to strengthen the Woodworking and furniture and fittings ecosystem through structured programmes focused on skilling, upskilling, and reskilling, in collaboration with NSDC, FFSC, ITIs, PBSSD, and industry partners, in support of the Skill India Mission.

Also present with their active participation and words of gratitude on the occasion, were industry partners such as Canadian Wood, Biesse, Rehau, Felder, Imos, WoodTech, SS Coatings, and Groz Tools.

The event proved to be a success with the effort of Deepak Sharma, Deputy Director and his core team of Trainers namely Kulwant Jangra, Jyoti Ashutosh, and Swapnil Verma.

The convocation highlighted how focused, hands-on training and industry collaboration can translate into sustainable livelihood opportunities and employment outcomes, while steadily increasing women’s participation in the Woodworking sector.

Cairn Boosts Rural Livelihoods in Jorhat through Integrated Farm Interventions

Jorhat, Dec 23: Marking National Farmers’ Day, Cairn Oil & Gas, a part of the Vedanta Group, reaffirmed its commitment to rural development by supporting farmers in Jorhat through access to high-yielding rice-seeds, organic inputs, and crop facilitation. The initiative was highlighted during an awareness session organised for the farmers in collaboration with Jorhat Agriculture Department, Government of Assam, alongside Cairn’s ongoing initiative with Krishi Vigyan Kendra  Jorhat, and the Assam Agricultural University  Assam Rice Research Institute Titabar.

The programme aims to enhance crop productivity, improve income security and promote scientific agricultural practices in the region.

Speaking on the collaboration, Priyank Majumdar, ADO, Nakachari, Jorhat Agriculture Department, Government of Assam said:

 “High-yielding varieties like Ranjit and Bahadur have consistently demonstrated strong performance in Assam. By helping farmers access quality seed and scientific practices, this initiative strengthens productivity, reduces risk, and supports long-term farm sustainability.”

Cairn’s role has been to bridge institutions, government schemes, and local communities, ensuring that farmers gain access to high-quality inputs, knowledge transfer, and market-linked confidence.

Under its CSR programme, Cairn supported the procurement and distribution of the widely adopted Ranjit and Bahadur rice varieties developed under the Regional Rice Research Institute system. Nearly 100 farmers, cultivating approximately 110 acres of land, have benefited from the initiative, recording significant yield improvements.

Ratul Gogoi, a farmer from Naginijan: 

“We received good quality seeds, compost, and guidance. Our yields have increased, and crop insurance gives us the confidence to invest more in our fields. This support has helped us move forward with hope.”

The initiative builds on an earlier seed-distribution drive conducted in Naginijan earlier this year where Cairn and ARRI introduced high-yielding varieties and promoted organic farming practices through distribution of vermi compost. Additionally, with the support from the Jorhat Agriculture Department, Government of Assam, all participating farmers were also enrolled under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, extending crop-insurance protection and financial security.

Preliminary field assessments indicate a significant increase in agricultural produce with even higher yields anticipated. The report for which will be released by KVK once the harvesting season is over.

Beyond immediate yield gains, the initiative highlights Cairn’s sustained role in strengthening institutional convergence by connecting agricultural universities, extension services, government programmes, and farmer network.  This includes facilitating logistics, procurement support, and access to scientific farming knowledge.

By improving yields, promoting organic inputs, strengthening institutional convergence, and expanding coverage under crop insurance, Cairn aims to enhance farm incomes, reduce risk, and support self-reliance across rural communities in Assam.
