CELLIANT® with REPREVE® has been a judge-favorite at the ISPO Awards for the past three years, and the recently announced ISPO Textrends Spring/Summer 2024 Awards makes it a four year streak. What’s even better is that CELLIANT with REPREVE was also joined by CELLIANT® Print as a 2024 award winner.
CELLIANT with REPREVE Recycled Nylon was awarded a Top 10 selection in the Base Layer Category and CELLIANT Print received a Top 5 selection in the Second Layer category – two new categories of recognition for us. We are always looking for ways to add value to our brand partners and now with both the REPREVE and Print versions of CELLIANT celebrated award-winners, it cements the versatility and quality of our different carrier types.
ISPO believes that innovative sports products and services are what push companies to the next level, which is why they created the ISPO Awards. Twice a year, they recognize forward-thinking participants for their fibers, fabrics and component materials particularly as it relates to the sports and outdoor industry. The awards bring together professionals across the categories of designers, product managers, suppliers and more. To give you an idea of its scope within the industry, to date, 4,980 products have been awarded across 1,350 different brands, as determined by 130 industry jury experts who assess the merit of each submission. The awards are spaced across a variety of categories, including base layer, second layer, outer layer, performing finishes, membranes and coatings, street sports, soft equipment, accessories, fibers and insulations, trims and accelerated eco.
The Base Layer category spotlights next-to-skin fabrics with preshaping, support, thermal or moisture management performance. Softness, comfort, anti-bacterial or eco-friendly properties are added values. The Second Layer category is focused on fleece fabrics, lightweight protective fabrics and performance linings, stretch or non-stretch. It also considers advanced thermal management, natural fibers from wool and cotton sustainable fibers, including cellulosic, and work alongside next generation synthetics, both virgin and recycled.
Judges test every entry based on a specific set of criteria – performance, best hand (touch/feel), creativity, innovation and best multi-function. Products are all scored individually, and then the jury reconvenes to select the Top 10 products per category.
That being said, for CELLIANT products to be nominated in the Base Layer and Second Layer categories by the experts is only further proof that our innovative ingredient is meant for every type of application and is a great addition to a variety of products.
We’re committed to developing high-quality, high performance infrared materials solutions. CELLIANT carriers have received recognition from global institutions, like ISPO Textrends, for their achievements in innovation and sustainability.
REPREVE, owned by Unifi Inc., is the leading, most trusted, branded performance fiber made from recycled materials. REPREVE transforms recycled bottles and fiber waste back into fiber and yarn that is then used by the world’s leading brands to make apparel, footwear, and more.
We are proud to partner with Unifi to create CELLIANT with REPREVE Recycled Nylon and CELLIANT with REPREVE Recycled Polyester, expanding the benefits of infrared wellness into the product lines of a true world-leader in sustainable fabrics and bringing another eco-friendly option to brand partners.
CELLIANT Print is one of the CELLIANT products available to licensed brand partners. Rather than being infused into fibers, yarns and fabrics, CELLIANT Print is an application technique where CELLIANT powder is adhered directly to a fabric as a topical coating. This means CELLIANT Print can be applied to the surface of any preferred fabric in a wide variety of designs.
