versi<strong>on</strong>s of the w<strong>on</strong>derful product: Vita Power and Vita Suede.<br />
Vita Power is str<strong>on</strong>ger than the original fabric, featuring a greater<br />
weight, pleasant feel, compact structure and breathability, with<br />
elevated elasticity and smart shape memory. Comfort and fit are<br />
its main selling points. Just like Vita, it does not tend to exhibit<br />
pilling and stands up well to abrasi<strong>on</strong>s, while protecting from<br />
harmful UV radiati<strong>on</strong> (UPF 50+). It also ensures proper muscular<br />
compressi<strong>on</strong>, significantly slowing down the formati<strong>on</strong> of lactic<br />
acid, managing all of this without in any way compromising<br />
freedom of movement. In other words, this remarkable fabric<br />
represents a very attractive candidate when it comes to producing<br />
sporty garments capable of guaranteeing outstanding<br />
performance properties.<br />
Vita Suede, <strong>on</strong> the other hand, is an opaque fabric, the brushed<br />
versi<strong>on</strong> of Vita Power, regarding which it is able to boast the same<br />
performance features, but with the added allure of a warm feel<br />
created by the velvety suede effect: ideal for garments that are<br />
both comfortable and fashi<strong>on</strong>able.<br />
On the market now for years, the Renew family of recycled fabrics<br />
by Jersey Lomellina takes the top positi<strong>on</strong> when it comes<br />
to characteristics, performance and sales. In additi<strong>on</strong> to Renew<br />
For years Carvico and Jersey Lomellina have been distinguishing<br />
themselves for their cutting-edge envir<strong>on</strong>mental policies,<br />
based <strong>on</strong> a sustainable manufacturing chain, in keeping<br />
with the circular ec<strong>on</strong>omic model of the future. As a matter<br />
of fact, these two Bergamo manufacturers have undertaken<br />
to completely eliminate or, at least, drastically limit the use of<br />
harmful chemical substances, to improve the energy efficiency<br />
of the manufacturing processes – a commitment including major<br />
investments in innovati<strong>on</strong> and research – to publishing their<br />
certified envir<strong>on</strong>mental data, and creating company, all with an<br />
overarching c<strong>on</strong>cern for the health and human rights of both<br />
their employees and the c<strong>on</strong>suming public.<br />
Carvico and Jersey Lomellina are also participating in an important<br />
internati<strong>on</strong>al project: Healthy Seas - a Journey from Waste<br />
to Wear, created in order to safeguard the seas – in particular<br />
the North Sea, the Adriatic and the Mediterranean – in an effort<br />
to eliminate aband<strong>on</strong>ed fishing nets <strong>on</strong> the bottom of the sea,<br />
gear that is resp<strong>on</strong>sible for causing serious damage to marine<br />
eco-systems. Thanks to this very worthwhile project, the nyl<strong>on</strong><br />
net material is salvaged and transformed into envir<strong>on</strong>mentallyfriendly<br />
fabrics, with the goal of promoting a sustainable approach<br />
to fashi<strong>on</strong> in Italy.<br />
Tangible examples of the positive results achieved by this effort<br />
are the Vita Power, Vita Suede and Style Peach fabrics, all made<br />
from 100% recycled fibers, the fruit of a collaborative agreement<br />
which has been made with the companies that produce them<br />
(like Aquafil with Ec<strong>on</strong>yl ® , the 100% recycled polyamide fiber).<br />
Vita by Carvico was crated three years ago, quickly establishing<br />
itself as the company’s most important fabric. It’s fiber c<strong>on</strong>tent is<br />
composed, to the tune of 78%, primarily of Polyamide Ec<strong>on</strong>yl ® ,<br />
which displays great versatility, strength, fineness, elegance,<br />
elasticity and softness. The big news this seas<strong>on</strong> are the two new<br />
