Lycra and Texhong to boost renewable content-containing fibre
The Lycra Company has announced a strategic partnership with Texhong International Group for its elastane fibre made with around 30% renewable content, with the BDO derived from industrial corn in Iowa.
Texhong, one of the world’s largest suppliers of core-spun cotton textiles, will exclusively partner with Lycra to bring the content to China’s core-spun yarn sector, with the aim of accelerating its adoption across the apparel industry.
