COOLMAX® EcoMade ALL SEASON technology

Offer sustainable year-round comfort

Why choose this technology?

The challenge:    

Consumers are becoming more interested in what’s inside their clothes. Are the ingredients sustainable? Do they add value and the performance benefits I desire? They’re also looking for more versatile garments that can be worn longer and in a variety of conditions to reduce the ecological impact of their purchase.

The solution:                       

COOLMAX® EcoMade ALL SEASON technology is engineered to meet this consumer’s needs. Made from 100% post-consumer recycled resources, this polyester fiber is designed to provide year-round comfort to many types of apparel. This versatile fiber helps the wearer stay cool when it’s warm and warm when it’s cool by using an innovative combination of fibers.

The COOLMAX® brand is in the top three of the most recognized cooling technology brands among consumers worldwide (Walnut Unlimited, 2019). Harness our high levels of consumer brand awareness and help drive purchase interest by promoting your use of COOLMAX® EcoMade technology.

Mills: Have your fabrics tested and certified, which gives your customers the ability to order COOLMAX® brand hangtags through the LYCRA ONE™ portal. Remember, the more garments retailers sell, the more fabric you sell, so encourage your customers to use hangtags in stores.

Brands: You can order free printed or virtual COOLMAX® brand swing tags quickly and easily on LYCRA ONE™. These tags explain each technology’s added value and performance benefits to drive garment sales. Or if you prefer, you can complete our Trademark Licensing Agreement to print your own co-branded hang tags and POS materials with pre-approved claims.

No other fiber manufacturer provides this level of marketing support to its customers. Be sure to take advantage of this amazing value-added service!
