Circular capsule has Spanish seal of approval
Spanish recycled cotton specialist Recover, denim mill Evlox and technology company Jeanologia are exhibiting a recycled denim capsule collection, Reiconics, at Denim Première Vision in Milan.

Made from Recover recycled cotton fibre and Spanish cotton, the collection is GRS certified and is a tribute to "classic denim fabrics"

It includes a range of premium denim fabrics developed by Evlox and 14 final garments. Each piece displays a variety of finishes generated  by Jeanologia, reducing water and energy consumption.

One jacket in the collection, using 32% Recover recycled fibre and Jeanologia finishing technology, saves up to 760 litres of water compared with a jacket made with virgin cotton and treated with traditional finishing techniques, according to the companies.

Francisco Ortega, Evlox R&D director, said: “We are thrilled to implement new models of denim manufacturing, more circular and sustainable with the help of recognised partners such as Recover and Jeanologia with whom we have been collaborating for years, this capsule is another milestone in the challenge of making circular fashion accessible to everyone, without compromising the denim heritage.”
