2020 saw the release of Hyosung’s RCS-certified regen® Spandex, which is made completely of recycled manufacturing waste. Since then, well-known merchants and manufacturers of denim have embraced the fiber to offer customers a product that is 100% recycled. Denim mills and firms are embracing the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Jeans Redesign guidelines for recyclable denim, making circularity a top emphasis.
In order to offer additional environmentally friendly and practical fiber options that match the performance and recycling advantages of the original CREORA® 3D Max spandex, Hyosung has extended its range of spandex products.
