New 100% recycled fibres on offer from Hyosung
Fibre manufacturer Hyosung has expanded its 100% recycled fibre offering.
In addition to its GRS (Global Recycle Standard) 100% recycled creora regen spandex collection, the company will present a series of new recycled polyester and nylon yarns in the coming weeks.
These new products include 100% recycled regen askin polyester with cooling technology, UV protection and rapid-drying features.
Another addition will be Mipan regen robic, which the company has dubbed the first GRS certified recycled high-tenacity nylon made from 100% reclaimed waste. It said it had developed this fibre “for eco-conscious enthusiasts who rely on their gear wherever the adventure takes them”.
Global marketing director, Mike Simko, said on announcing the new products that Hyosung’s objective in developing the new fibres was to reduce waste.
