The technology creates biodegradable ‘spots’ in the polymer matrix, where naturally-occurring microbes in certain environments can break down the plastics just as they do with natural fibres.
The biodegradation process takes a long time and access to moisture and an abundance of microbes. It will not happen during use or care.
Fibres and yarns are traceable – CiCLO® technology has an authentication program that requires all fibre producers to validate the presence of CiCLO® in every batch they manufacture.
Less energy intensive to produce in comparison to virgin materials, which results in lower carbon emissions during production. Delivers a similar level of performance as the virgin range, whilst offering sustainability benefits.
