The outdoor apparel company Patagonia and
circular fashion and textile technology group Infinited Fiber Company have
signed a multi-year sales agreement. The deal has been sealed for Infinited
Fiber Company’s unique and premium-quality regenerated textile fiber Infinna.
This is unique because this fiber is created out of textile waste. This move is
a major milestone in the span of both companies because this will make textile
circularity a reality. The deal is going to benefit both parties as Patagonia
will get access to the limited-supply fiber while on the other hand, Infinited
Fiber Company will secure a good source of future income.
According to Ciara Cates, Lead Material
Developer, Patagonia, the company will be able to build a circularity
partnership with Infinited Fiber Company, which will not only help to recycle
the past products but also build a circularity plan for future products.
According to Kirsi Terho, Director,
Infinited Fiber Company, Patagonia is a pioneer in sustainable clothing and
practices. They follow a rigid standard for sustainability. The company feels
humbled to get approval for Infinna as an alternative to virgin cotton. The
company is also proud to form a long-term commitment for using Infinna in the
future collection. The company is also excited to be making circular textile
production a reality.
Infinna is a virgin-quality fiber that is
soft and has a natural look just like cotton. It is created from cotton-rich
textile waste only and is broken down at the molecular level to be born as a
piece of new fabric. It is biodegradable and contains no micro-plastics. The
clothes that are made up with it can also be recycled.
As per Patagonia’s Cates, the best thing
about Infinna is that nobody can guess that it is made from recycled garments.
It was also said that consumers can enjoy the same comfort, softness, and
longevity as a similar product made from virgin materials.
