With a host of trade shows being cancelled because of the health and travel concerns due to the coronavirus, event organisers have turned to digital alternatives. As a result of these cancellations, Korean fibre producer Hyosung will present its latest regen offering of sustainable multi-function fibres via Kingpins24 live-streaming and Performance Days online events, which take place on 22 and 23 April 2020.

For both digital events, Hyosung has prepared targeted presentations that capture both the Kingpins24 denim community and the Performance Days audience, where both are seeking the latest when it comes to sustainability and innovation.

Highlighted will be Hyosung’s sustainable stretch and multi-fibre solutions to include its GRS certified creora regen elastane and Mipan regen nylon both made with 100% reclaimed waste, along with its regen polyester made from 100% post-consumer waste.

“We’ve chosen to make all of our recycled fibres with 100% recycled reclaimed waste to have the maximum positive impact on the environment,” said Mike Simko, Hyosung Global Marketing Director-Textiles. “If we made them with 50% blend, then we would only make half the impact.”
