New Delhi, NCR: PROGREEN is Vardhman's latest innovation in sustainable textile manufacturing. This slub yarn is made from recycled polyester fibers, which helps to reduce the environmental impact of the production process. PROGREEN also meets the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certification, which ensures that it has been produced sustainably and ethically.
The Slub yarn is a type of yarn that is spun intentionally to achieve an irregular shape in terms of length, frequency, and diameter. This irregularity gives slub yarn a unique texture and appearance that is often used to add visual interest to fabrics. Slub yarn is becoming increasingly popular in the fashion industry, as it can be used to create a variety of looks, from casual and laid-back to sophisticated and elegant.
In addition to its sustainability credentials, PROGREEN offers several other benefits to textile designers. This yarn is known for its superior strength and slub structure for a variety of applications, including shirting, knitwear, and casual wear. PROGREEN also produces remarkable visual effects in fabric, making it a preferred choice for designers who are looking to create eye-catching and unique fabrics. Their Eco Yarns, including "Ultra Soft Fabric", redefine sustainable and breathable fabrics. Ideal for smart casuals, sportswear, base layers, t-shirts, and loungewear, these fabrics boast water absorbency 50% greater than cotton. Durable, lightweight, and moisture-managing, they offer long-lasting comfort while being naturally soft to the touch.
Vardhman ReNova Recycled Products is an additional initiative reinforcing their commitment to sustainable practices. Renewable energy sources are prioritized, and collaboration with suppliers adhering to fair labor practices is integral. They work on the production of these yarns to reduce carbon footprint through efficient transportation and employ eco-friendly processes. Recycling initiatives are implemented throughout the production chain to minimize waste, reflecting their holistic approach to environmentally conscious yarn creation.
Specific attributes vary based on the material; for example, organic cotton yarns offer natural moisture-wicking properties, Cocona yarn provides effective moisture management and bamboo yarns are known for their antimicrobial qualities. These eco yarns are also OEKO-TEX certified, (This label certifies that every component of the product, from the fabric to the thread and accessories, has been rigorously tested against a list of up to 350 toxic chemicals) ensuring adherence to stringent safety and environmental standards, providing a superior and sustainable crafting experience.
The company has a holistic, balanced, and practical approach to sustainability that addresses all three dimensions of sustainability: environmental, social, and economic. Vardhman is also a member of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC), which is a global industry coalition that works to improve the sustainability of the apparel industry.
Crafted from organic or recycled materials, these yarns minimize environmental impact compared to some conventional counterparts.
