Hyosung, anticipating the denim industry's shift towards agile sourcing and sustainable textiles, unveiled its 2024 solutions at Kingpins NYC. They emphasize efficient global sourcing for optimal materials, ethical production, and responsiveness to trends.
Simon Hong, Hyosung's Denim Marketing Lead, sees sourcing as key in 2024, with global strategies and sustainability playing a crucial role. Hyosung showcases its commitment to innovation with a unique portfolio of eco-friendly denim solutions.
A highlight is the expanded regen Bio-Based spandex line, offering yarns with 70% and 98% renewable resources, boosting sustainability transparency. In 2020, Hyosung launched RCS-certified regen Spandex, made entirely from recycled waste, which has been embraced by denim giants. Circularity remains a priority, with denim companies adopting the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's Jeans Redesign guidelines for recyclable denim.
Hyosung also expands its CREORA 3D Max spandex line with sustainable and functional options. These include USDA and SGS-certified regen Bio-Based 3D Max, RCS-certified 100% recycled regen 3D Max, and the CREORA Easy 3D Max for superior softness and stretch.
Hyosung's focus on global sourcing, sustainable materials, and innovative solutions positions them as a leader in the evolving denim landscape.
