More environmentally friendly pocket liner
The clothing sector is increasingly interested in the ecological aspect and the environmental impact of the textiles used. The Subrenat experts therefore support their customers in this transition.
Business case
Several customers approached us to create a more environmentally friendly pocket liner. The technical specifications remain similar to the traditional product while being economically accessible and above all with a real positive environmental impact. This is why we proposed to make a fabric based on polyester from recycled bottles.
Technical constraints
The difficulties were multiple, indeed it was necessary to preserve the textile aspect and the properties required of a pocket liner, such as lightness, comfort and resistance to pilling as well as to intense use (keys, telephone, etc...). However, at the same time it was necessary to choose a material recognised as sustainable by an international label.
Textile design and manufacture
To achieve this development, we opted for a polyester/cotton solution that combines the comfort and breathability of cotton with the strength of polyester. The polyester we chose is derived from the recycling of used bottles, with a certificate to back it up. To guarantee the mechanical resistance we tried several constructions of yarns and fabrics and chose a multi-filament chain that is particularly resistant to abrasion and traction.
