Elastic, functional and uncompromisingly sustainable

Schoeller summer 2022 is devoted to COMMON FUTURES. This theme symbolizes common goals, honest innovations and sustainability for a genuine future. The manifestation at Schoeller: durable, super-comfortable and high-tech fabrics that help to preserve resources with recycled yarns, elastane and sustainable finishing technologies. Manufactured, by and large, using its own Swiss solar energy, these fabric highlights naturally all conform to the bluesign® system.

RAW MATTER

This light, elastic schoeller®-dynamic fabric in shades of summery orange and stone combines sustainability with functionality and comfort. Produced in Switzerland, the soft jacket and pants quality from the new biocosmo line impresses with its natural look and thoroughly ecological aspects: It consists of a high-quality recycled polyamide and a recycled elastane and, in addition, is finished with the water-repelling ecorepel® Bio technology based on renewable raw materials.

SCULPTING STRUCTURE

The exciting 3D structure with its shimmering two-tone coloring gives this schoeller®-dynamic trim or shoe quality a very special look. In various shades of blue, grey or henna, 4-way stretch ensures super comfort during a wide range of outdoor activities. Whether combined as monochrome or as consciously color-contrasting eye-catchers in hybrid outfits, the polyamide-polyester-ripstop blends radiate a refreshingly-new and different appeal. Finished with the PFC-free ecorepel® Bio technology, they also offer natural water repellence.


CLEAN CLASSIC

A product that is perfect for the golf course but also ideal in the urban environment is the schoeller®-shape polyamide fabric with excellent bi-elasticity and outstanding recovery. With these features, the somewhat heavier twill quality with a very clean appearance follows every movement, never losing its shape. In warm rust, sportingly-vibrant blue or classic black, it also offers premium clothing comfort when the weather turns out not to be so summery and warm. Here again, the reliable, environment-friendly water repellence is ensured by the ecorepel® Bio technology.

Together with the abolition of the €150 customs duty exemption, it demonstrates that policymakers are willing to act when market distortions become impossible to ignore. However, the European textile and clothing industry considers this a first step rather than the final destination.
