Fabrics which Are Extracted From Recycled Fibre are on Use for The First Time

Fisher Textiles has launched a new range of fabrics for yoga pants, ET 3000 Yoga, made with Repreve recycled yarns, which are produced from recycled plastic bottles.

“With a soft hand and adequate stretch, it makes an excellent material for customised yoga pants,” Fisher Textiles said.

Compatible with dye sublimation printing, this fabric is inherently treated with Sorbtek, Unifi's moisture management system which allows perspiration to move away from the body and dries quickly.

According to Fisher, this fabric is ideal for athletic apparel applications, especially yoga pants.

ET 3000 is 14.5 oz/lin. yd and is made of 86 per cent Repreve recycled polyester and 14 per cent Spandex.

“It is stocked at 60 inches wide and Repreve hangtags for finished garments are available,” Fisher Textiles added.

ET 3000 has been certified by Unifi, the manufacturer of Repreve, through the U Trust verification program, using Fiberprint technology.

ET 3000’s REPREVE certification number is RPV-3056 and Sorbtek certification number is SRB-1248.
