Symbiosis of function and uncompromising sustainability

© 2021 Schoeller
In Schoeller Summer 2023, the focus is on fairly-produced, multifunction textiles with environmentally-friendly finishes and exciting membrane technologies, as well as long-lasting products with recycled or bio-based components. These responsibly-produced innovations are part of Schoeller’s new biocosmo line, symbolizing sustainability and responsible innovations in combination with high-tech performance.

E-SPINNING AEROBRANE

biocosmo sets a clear and specific focus within the Schoeller Performance Collection: extraordinary sustainability. The innovative schoeller®-allweather three-layer fabric combines sustainability with functionality. Produced under fair conditions, the light outdoor and urban weight makes an impression with the new, highly-breathable aerobrane weather protection and ecological elements: It consists mainly of a high-quality, recycled polyamide in combination with the new E-Spinning membrane and is finished with Schoeller’s water-repelling ecorepel® Bio technology that is based on renewable raw materials.

BIONIC C_CHANGE

Outstanding wind and weather protection is also offered in the elastic schoeller®-allweather fabrics with a bionic c_change® climate membrane, which actively reacts to the ambient temperature. As ideal travelling companions made of recycled polyester in an elegant twill quality in a vivid violet shade. A heavy ottoman quality, also featuring PFC-free ecorepel® Bio technology, is made of recycled polyamide and recycled elastan, providing outstanding tear resistance when an extra portion of protection is required.




RECYCLED CONTENT

Freedom of movement, sustainability and high-energy colors characterize the 2-way stretch schoeller®-dryskin with recycled polyester and ecological ecorepel® Bio technology. Excellent moisture transport and reliable abrasion resistance make it ideal for all kinds of active sports. The pastel shades of the sturdy schoeller®-dynamic outdoor or accessory fabric lend it a certain lightness and an understated look. Recycled polyamide, recycled elastane and environment-friendly water repellence thanks to ecorepel® Bio finish make it sustainable through and through.

BIO-BASED TECHNOLOGIES

The elastic schoeller®-shape cotton blend with recycled polyamide is perfect for the golf course, but also ideal for an urban environment. The natural, light, two-tone effect is reminiscent of worn denim, and the 3XDRY® Bio technology finishes the pants fabric with bio-based feelgood technology. The ultra-light schoeller®-softight ripstop with organic camouflage print produces a semitransparent, downproof jacket shell. Made of 100 percent recycled polyamide and is finished with ecorepel® Bio technology, it too takes its place in the biocosmo portfolio.
