Tricorp, the leading workwear brand in the Netherlands launched t-shirts and polos with Polygiene BiostaticTM Stays Fresh technology for their new collection RE2050, a serie of articles, in which pre- and post-consumer waste is used.
The use of Polygiene technologies means that garments will stay fresh for longer periods of time and will last longer due to the reduced need for washing, all in line with the Polygiene vision to change the way we view products – from fast consumables to durables .
Tricorp has a goal for 100% circular workwear, an example of that is their recycling program where used workwear is collected for use in new textile products. Additionally, as member of Fair Wear Foundation, they aim to improve working conditions in the clothing industry.
The company states: “At Tricorp, our goal is to be progressive, innovative and at the forefront of the workwear market while providing the best fitting workwear in a sustainable and safe manner. That is at the same time one of the reasons that Polygiene and Tricorp are such a good fit. With the technologies of Polygiene we are able to give our workwear an extra dimension: Less smell and a longer lifetime of the product.”
