Fulgar’s tyre-derived yarn is homecoming for Ferrari
Italian brand Ferrari has launched a clothing range for spring-summer 2025 made with Fulgar’s Q-Cycle for a “distinctive element with direct links to the automotive world”.
The fibre is based on a thermo-chemical recycling technology that transforms discarded tyres into pyrolysis oil.
The method leads to reductions in CO2 emissions, as waste that cannot be transformed into prime materials undergoes pyrolysis into the gas used to generate the energy required by the entire conversion process.
Fulgar claims the yarn offers lightness, strength and resistance properties similar to those of virgin polyamide.
