This unique fiber delivers a second skin fit that stays in place to provide enhanced comfort in motion and an elevated wearing experience. LYCRA^® ADAPTIV fiber also creates garments that offer a wider fit window to enable inclusive sizing that adapts to fit different body shapes within a size. Join us to see how it can transform your collections.

More than 65% of this elastance-free stretch fiber content comes from recycled plastics and renewable plant-based resources. LYCRA^® T400^® EcoMade fiber provides a cutting-edge solution that resists bagging and sagging and delivers lasting comfort, fit, and shape.  Additionally, its unique design offers moisture-wicking properties, making it eligible for COOLMAX^® fiber technology branding. 

Made from 100% recycled textile waste, our COOLMAX^® EcoMade fiber helps reduce environmental impact by cutting carbon emissions and landfill waste. It provides moisture-wicking cooling throughout the garment's lifespan. 

Lightweight and insulating warmth using fibers made from 100% recycled textile waste. It also provides effective thermal performance for various types of garments ranging from wetsuits to winter jackets and non-apparel products like sleeping bags while reducing carbon emissions and landfill waste.

Step into the future of versatile fashion, where activewear, swimwear, shapewear, and more unite performance and style. We are proud to be the presenting sponsor of the Bodywear Collective to explore innovative garments created by leading brands and mills using LYCRA^® fibers.

These designs, crafted with premium fabrics from our European mill partners, demonstrate how innovation, comfort, and sustainability come together to inspire the next generation of apparel.
