Eastman extends Naia cellulose offerings

29/08/2019
Specialty materials provider Eastman, the maker of Naia cellulosic yarn, will be launching a new fabric collection at Première Vision-Paris (PV) between September 17 and 19.

The Naia collection includes fabrics such as the Naia bamboo blend, wrinkle-resistant Naia textured glossy knit, shimmering satin woven Naia silk blend, and an open-mesh warp knit with a metallic appearance and soft hand.

“Mills are delivering a wider option of Naia fabrics, and those fabrics are more accessible than ever. It’s an exciting time to be fully delivering on the promise of sustainable textiles,” said Ruth Farrell, marketing director of textiles for Eastman. “Designers are now transforming a yarn that originates from nature into luxurious, soft and easy-to-care-for fabrics and fashion.”

Naia is certified as biodegradable in freshwater and soil environments and is compostable in industrial settings, having received the ‘OK biodegradable’ and ‘OK compost’ conformity marks from certification agency TÜV Austria.
