Filati di Sorona® Poliestere Vegetale

Origin and benefits of Sorona^® fibre

Sorona^® is an innovative polyester fibre that does not come from oil, but is made from polytrimethylethylene terephthalate (PTT), a polymer obtained from glucose fermentation and maize seed processing.

So 37% of the polymer is produced using vegetable ingredients from renewable sources.

Properties of Sorona^® yarns

The high elasticity of the fibre in Sorona^® yarns made from vegetable polyester means they can be used to make soft, comfortable garments.

The special molecular structure maximises performance and reduces wrinkling, making the garment crease resistant.

Sorona^® is breathable, dries quickly and resists pilling over time.

Sorona^®: the innovative polyester of sustainable vegetable origin

Sorona^® yarns are composed of 37% renewable sources, which means 37% less energy consumption and 63% less CO2 emissions during the production process.
