01/09/2009

Footwear moisture management fabric producer Faytex Corp is incorporating Repreve recycled fibres into its Dri-Lex Eco fabric line.

“This business opportunity will allow us to extend the reach of our Dri-Lex Eco programme, which we launched about two and a half years ago,” said vice president, Cindy Fay Stangl. She explains that Unifi, which makes Repreve, offers a U Trust verification programme which ensures that its recycled fibres are traceable, transparent, and certifiably sustainable.

“We are excited to be working with Faytex,” said Roger Berrier, executive vice president for Unifi. “With a growing emphasis on sustainable products in today’s global market, the Dri-Lex Eco product offering now provides consumers with new sustainable options for the footwear market.”
