Cifra, the leader in the production of knitwear with WKS technology which is internationally patented, is investing in research and design thanks to the expansion of its design department and the addition of new eco-sustainable yarns including:
Econyl®: This yarn by Aquafil is a Nylon 6 fiber made completely regenerated waste materials. It has to do with a nylon thread to be exact, coming from recovered plastic materials: fishing nets, and more generally, scraps of fabrics used by the textile industry which are salvaged and regenerated through a complex process of decomposition.
QNova®: This yarn by Fulgar is a pre-consumer Nylon 6.6 recycled and eco-sustainable fiber derived exclusively from regenerated raw materials, and produced according to the criteria and requirements of modern traceability. Q-Nova® consists of waste materials coming from the company's main production cycle. Materials as such cannot be reused in any other way and should be disposed of externally as waste.
The Starlight® by Radici yarn, derived from the post-consumption of PET bottles, offers a valid post consumer alternative.
The Amni Soul Eco® by Fulgar enables garments to rapidly decompose once disposed of and placed in landfills. In favor of a circular model of sustainability, all these yarns will be combined with Eco Smart® by Roica elastomer which lends a very high level of biodegradability to the fabrics.
