Performance is important to both brands and consumers<br />
and is an important contributor to increasing the<br />
sustainability quotient of a product. Today’s busy consumers<br />
are looking for products and apparel that offer durability,<br />
meet or exceed performance expectations and are easy<br />
care. Apparel markets including swimwear, intimate<br />
apparel, activewear and ready to wear are key targets for<br />
Sorona.<br />
Due to the colorfastness, UV and chlorine resistance,<br />
swimwear looks great and retains its color and shape all<br />
summer long. Fabrics made with Sorona won’t degrade<br />
or breakdown due to harsh sunlight or chlorine. Due to<br />
its softness, fabrics made with these fibers are low pill<br />
so swimwear looks and peforms like new despite the<br />
performance demands.<br />
