With growing concerns about the carbon footprint of the aviation industry, many global airlines are keen to find a cleaner, greener supply chain. We collaborated with a long-term customer; a renowned supply chain partner for uniforms to the global airline industry to produce washable uniforms from recycled materials in the airline's effort to reduce its carbon footprint. We work with recycled materials ranging from shell fabrics to interlinings, trimming, and packaging. To further reduce our carbon footprint, we are installing renewable energy systems and working with regenerated textiles and trims.
We developed a rich and varied textile source and supply chain for wool, wool polyester, polyester viscose, and other blends. With a large capacity and skilled operators, we manufacture and supply to clients in the US, UK, European, and (most recently) Australian markets using an almost 100% domestic supply chain.
