Whilst the thread maintains its quality, strength and durability during the life span of the garment, when exposed to a thermal washing process at temperatures above 95\u00b0C it allows the seam to dissolve so that non-textile and textile components can be easily separated for recycling. This product has the potential to be truly transformative in driving a circular textile economy. We are currently seeking to bring together the key industry players (e.g. brands, collectors and recyclers) to put the steps in place that are required in order for this solution to be scaled up.

Coats main business is producing threads and dyeing is the major process in terms of sustainability impact. Texon and Rhenoflex produce sheet materials or individual pieces that are largely undyed as they are hidden in the shoe construction. The core processes are producing synthetic or cellulosic sheets and impregnating or coating them, or using additive manufacturing techniques to produce sintered individual reinforcement pieces. Water use is far less intensive than in the Coats processes. Energy use is significant and is more geared towards Scope 1 heat energy than is the case for Coats.<\/p><p>Operational emissions reduction through energy efficiencies and transition to renewables is a high priority for both businesses. Material transition is a major area of focus and is well advanced in both companies. People-related issues are very similar to those in Coats.<\/p><p>Our conclusion from this review is that both acquired companies have a very similar approach to sustainability as Coats, and that while the balance of material issues varies between the entities the new acquisitions can be easily integrated into the Coats sustainability strategy framework.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"e-n-tab-content-2129658675\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-tab-title-2129658675\" data-tab-index=\"5\" style=\"--n-tabs-title-order: 5;\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4feea23 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4feea23\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d4f26b9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d4f26b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Rhenoflex Multizone enables customized production of shoe caps with tailor made curing zones. We distinguish between two different versions: Multizone 1C allows for the production of different thicknesses of a material for a reinforcement cap while Multizone 2C makes it possible to combine different materials in a single reinforcement cap. The reinforcement material is hard where it needs to provide support, soft where it needs to be comfortable. This increases the performance and comfort of the shoe and also allows for the customized implementation of new ideas, shapes and designs as well as the integration of RFID (Radio- Frequency Identification) and NFC (Near Field Communication) chips. With its new Multizone process , we can reduce the weight of products by up to 25%. Multizone reinforcement solutions are thus particularly well suited to running shoes, as every gram counts for runners. Various patent applications for Multizone products and processes are currently under review.

Thread makes up a very small proportion of a finished garment, typically around 1-2%. Currently most thread is made from polyester whether the material being sewn is cotton, polyester, a blend of the two of them or some other fibre. This means that thread is often of a different material to the rest of the product. This small percentage footprint combined with the different material composition makes thread an additional challenge for circular recycling. Furthermore threads and the seam structures they are sewn into have been developed to be extremely durable. In most cases a seam will comfortably outlive the material used in the garment. This is an additional challenge when it comes to selective disassembly of seams, for example to remove non-textile elements, and is a major reason why this is a high cost, manual process at the moment.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54f5b64 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"54f5b64\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe have spent over 250 years expertly designing and producing thread that holds garments together, ensuring it withstands the full lifetime of the garment.

Our approach is to consider three ways in which thread can provide a solution. First, garments need to be designed with material compatibility in mind, therefore threads needs to match the fabric material so that it can undergo the same recycling process. Second, we have explored how thread can be a low-cost solution to create a garment that can be easily disassembled at the end of its life. Third, where possible, our threads must be developed from recycled textile materials.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2a00216 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2a00216\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIn response, we have developed a suite of sustainable sewing threads which allow our customers to design garments with a clear endof- life strategy built into them.
