REDUCING OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT WITH A SOFTER TOUCH HELPING YOU TO LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST BY GUARANTEEING HIGHER LEVELS OF COMFORT
To leave the environment cleaner than we found it, we must measure the impact of our products. We take pride in being the first yarn manufacturer in the world to transform flakes to POY on a commercial basis. Unlike ordinary recycled polyester, our process eliminates the need for polymer chips. This conscious action ensures the PET we recycle emits the lowest carbon foot print in the world.
Potential Benefits:
- Our innovation ensures yarn is produced with world's lowest carbon footprint
- Easily combined with other varieties available in our yarn range
- Enhances breathability and extremely comfortable to wear
- Yarn with soft texture
- Advanced technology enables improved CIE whiteness
- Capable of higher dye affinity
- Withstands stress with higher breaking strength
BRIGHT COLOURS KEEP IT NATURAL
Yarn created with natural colours. Creativity meets quality as we continue to push boundaries inventing new ideas and approaches.

Potential Benefits:
- Energy and water consumption usage at lowest levels
- Highest color fastness
- Due to unique features no pigments and dyestuff used
- Natural color of the bottles evident in the yarn
MINIMIZING DIRECT EXPOSURE TO ULTRAVIOLET RAYS MAKES WEARING MORE COMFORTABLE AND COOL, PROVIDING THE BEST SUN PROTECTION AND SHADE.
Exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UV) is considered dangerous and can damage your skin.
The properties of our ECOS Shield yarn provide unique and excellent UV shielding, protecting the wearer’s skin against any harmful UV light. Preventing direct sunlight and blocking UV rays offers coolness to the skin leaving it well cared for.
Potential Benefits:
- An impressive 50+ UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) blocks nearly 98% of the sun’s rays providing excellent protection against UV rays
- Provides both wet and dry UV protection
- Can be combined with other ECOS proprietary technologies or finishes for additional benefits
- Cotton like’ touch and feel where texture is similar to cotton
PRESERVING NATURAL RESOURCES AND REDUCING WASTE IN OUR OCEANS IS OUR PRIME GOAL. THAT IS WHY WE GIVE MARINE LITTER A SECOND LIFE
We understand that plastic is one of the greatest threats to the ocean. To reduce plastic pollution in the oceans we source PET from sea coastal areas through our network of collectors and fishermen. By recycling we help reduce the environmental impacts and contamination, negate any adverse effects caused to the underwater biosphere and marine ecosystem and help to prevent the beauty of beaches and coastlines being marred.
Potential Benefits:
- Contributing to reducing plastic waste and micro plastic contamination of our oceans
- Helping to sustain the marine environment, improve ocean biodiversity and improve livelihoods of fishermen and collectors
- Strengthen drive towards cleaner beaches by reducing plastic pollution of the oceans
- Supplying full traceability of the source
- Providing necessary flexibility of defining proximity to the coastal areas for the collection of water bottles
AS ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES INCREASE, PRODUCING COLOURED YARN INNOVATIVELY REDUCES ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND WATER POLLUTION.
Conventional bulk dyeing is highly water intensive. By using recycled dope-dying, coloured yarn is produced without using water, which helps to reduce overall water consumption by more than 50%. Compared to traditional fabric dying or package dyeing, this saves tremendous amounts of water.
Potential Benefits:
- Reducing water and energy consumption by eliminating the dyeing process
- Deeper color penetration provides high color fastness
- Better flexibility in obtaining custom color matching
- Ability to reduce the minimum order quantity
- End product cost is lower compared to conventional fabric dyeing
- Capable of achiving colour uniformity
BREATHABLE, SKIN-FRIENDLY AND FASHIONABLE
Whether a professional athlete or just a sports lover, the need to be comfortable, especially with apparel is always paramount. Our moisture management yarn ensures the fabric is dry even during
exercise, with moisture regulation and rapid absorption. The water vapour permeability and moisture management of the yarn prevent water condensation ensuring improved superior thermal efficiency, comfort and durability.
Potential Benefits:
- Keep wearer comfortable and cool
- Helps to avoid skin diseases and irritation
- Extremely durable
- Providers better care performance and pleasant touch
