Biella Yarn launches Collection “Reimagined” for Spring/Summer 2027 with fresh approach to fibre design

New yarn blends and expressive colours for modern summer knitwear

Biella Yarn, the flat knitting brand of Suedwolle Group, introduces its Spring/Summer 2027 collection “Reimagined” featuring refined yarn blends and advanced spinning technologies designed for contemporary summer knitwear. Under the motto “And the story goes on…”, Biella Yarn continues to push the boundaries of responsible yarn development, offering versatile materials that elevate modern craftsmanship.

New this season is GM Morwell Nm 2/30 and 2/48 (60% Cotton, 40% Merino Wool Extrafine TEC), an intimate blend of wool and cotton from the Gammaspun range. This combination of fibres delivers the durability and dry touch of cotton alongside the softness and elasticity of wool. Natural tonal contrasts create subtle mélange effects, adding depth and sophistication to garments.

The new spinning technology Gammaspun enables the combination of cellulosic fibres with 20–50% Merino wool, resulting in fabrics with clean structure, smooth surfaces, and improved pilling performance.

Also introduced is Alisei Nm 2/30 and Nm 2/48 (80% Merino Wool Extrafine, 20% GRS recycled wool) from the Karma-Yarns family. Marking Suedwolle Group’s latest step in promoting circularity, Karma transforms pre-production waste into new yarns – keeping materials in use and reducing reliance on virgin resources.

The range of natural blends around Merino Wool and Linen had been broaden by adding new yarns with natural fibres Ramie Avalon Nm 2/48 (50% Merino Wool Extrafine, Total Easy Care; 30% Ramie, 20% Linen) and Avalon Nm 2/60 (50% Merino Wool Superfine, Super 120'S, Total Easy Care, 30% Ramie, 20% Linen). This particular blend makes knitwear light and shaped, while retaining the comfort and softness of wool.

Completing the collection is Sesel Nm 2/60 (70% Extrafine Merino Wool with anti-shrinkage treatment, 30% Alginate), a blend of wool and alginate. Derived from seaweed, alginate is a bio-based fibre that enhances cooling and provides a smooth hand-feel.

The Spring/Summer 2027 colour cards feature bold, dynamic shades balanced with refined neutrals. Vibrant pinks, saturated reds, and burnt orange tones harmonise with contemporary whites, beige, and greys – creating a fresh palette for the season.

In partnership with MRC Knitwear Research Studio and the luxury knitwear brand Ami Amalia, Suedwolle Group showcases the versatility of these yarns through various designs: crochet-like dresses and capes, airy net textures, and elegant drapes.

Engineering depth and diversity for composites

Airbond is the latest member of the British Textile Machinery Association (BTMA) to receive recognition for contributions to the composites industry. The engineering firm based in Pontypool, South Wales, has just received the Make UK Energy and Sustainability Award for its Lattice 3D Printing project.

Award-winning research for sustainable carbon fibre cycles

Sustainable recycling of carbon fibres is possible through targeted electrochemical surface modification, which makes the sizing of carbon fibres resistant to solvolysis. ITA PhD student Sabina Dann was awarded the MSW Award from RWTH Aachen University for her master's thesis on this development. The award ceremony took place on 12 November 2025 in Aachen.

“Action helps us change what we do!”

DAY 0 takes place deliberately before PERFORMANCE DAYS begins. It is conceived as a space for reflection, dialogue and active engagement — a moment to pause before the fair, rethink established systems and address sustainability not as a trend, but as a fundamental transformation challenge. Under the guiding metaphor “Turn the Tap Off”, DAY 0 focuses on root causes rather than symptoms, systemic change rather than isolated solutions, and collective responsibility rather than individual silos.
