This Global Recycled Standard-certified fiber contains 60% recycled PET and 14.4% bio-derived resources.
- COOLMAX® EcoMade fiber made from 100% textile waste delivers cool and dry comfort to various garment types, while THERMOLITE® EcoMade fiber made from 100% textile waste adds lightweight warmth.
