Polartec, the premium provider of innovative and sustainable textile solutions, announced updates around its exhibition at the Outdoor Retailer show in Denver, Colo recently. Polartec Eco-Engineering™ is realizing a long sought after breakthrough advancement enabling all Polartec products to be recyclable and biodegradable. This will enable the creation of the world’s first fully recycled and biodegradable fleece, other knits, fills, and breathable waterproof membrane via an additive that allows the materials to biodegrade under normal marine and landfill conditions.
