The adidas Sportswear collection offers specific performance technologies through simple cutlines, colorways and stripped back design details, with comfort running through its every fiber. The collections includes the Tiro Suit, adidas’ iconic tracksuit silhouette with a deep heritage in football, and AVRYN, a shoe made in part with recycled materials.

adidas introduces the new SS23 Melbourne Tennis Collection

adidas unveils its SS23 Melbourne Tennis Collection – an apparel range fit for performance
Inspired by plants and florals, the collection features bold prints, vibrant colorways and a moiré effect textile
The adidas SS23 Melbourne Tennis Collection will be available from Jan 13 2023

adidas launches its new SS23 Melbourne Tennis Collection, a range of performance apparel featuring striking colorful prints, inspired by plant life and nature. Select pieces feature a contrast-color mesh layering that when in motion creates a moiré effect and helps to mask the player’s movements and positioning on court.

With the help of innovation, adidas is seeing possibilities in turning towards new resources. For these products adidas turned to a greenhouse gas technology. It uses captured industrial emissions as a new material feedstock. CO₂ is fermented into ethanol which constitutes 30% by weight of a polyester yarn. adidas knitted this yarn into various products and now this carbon-based ethanol makes up a minimum of 15% by weight of these garments.

In addition, the collection also utilizes HEAT.RDY and Aeroready technologies. HEAT.RDY technology is designed to maximize airflow and optimize sweat distribution, while AEROREADY is powered by moisture-wicking fabric that absorbs sweat quickly for a dry feeling, helping players to move freely and comfortably on court.

The SS23 Melbourne Tennis Collection will be premiered on court by adidas athletes, including Stefanos Tsitsipas, Felix Auger Aliassime, Garbiñe Muguruza, Qiang Wang and Maria Sakkari.

The SS23 Melbourne Tennis Collection will be available from Jan 13.

Through an intentional selection process, eight Black women social entrepreneurs were identified to participate in the first-ever Cultivate & B.L.O.O.M. cohort. The first cohort kicked off in July 2022 and will graduate in March 2023.

Throughout their nine months in the program, entrepreneurs have access to a tailored portfolio of resources and opportunities from within and outside of the adidas ecosystems that will serve to accelerate their impact. These resources include funding, access to industry experts, mentorship, workshops, fireside chats and visibility into adidas’ networks.

After graduating from the program, participants become a partner in the “Innovation Network”, a network of social impact partners that seek to drive forward change within their communities and organizations. This portfolio of partners will enable adidas to continue strengthening the diversity of our partnership network, increase our reach within key markets and deepen our relationships over time.

HeiQ Mint: No more smelly socks or shirts

HeiQ takes advantage of its presence at ISPO Munich 2022, 28th-30th of November, to launch HeiQ Mint, the new proprietary odor control technology. It is plant-based and designed to make textiles smell fresh even if we use them repeatedly, avoiding the need for frequent washes, thus enabling to save water and energy.

HeiQ Fresh MNT-01, under the HeiQ Mint product family, jointly developed with Patagonia, addresses body odors on textiles and regenerates at every wash, with superior efficiency and durability that meets most end-use performance requirements, while keeping all the fabric properties such as breathability, hand feel, or wicking. This textile technology is OEKO-TEX® suited, bluesign approved, and ZDHC compliant, with a USDA bio-preferred certification in progress.

This textile technology is OEKO-TEX® suited, bluesign approved, and ZDHC compliant, with a USDA bio-preferred certification in progress.

The product development tests were highly demanding, with HeiQ Mint standing out in comparison to the other two tested solutions. According to Laura Hoch, Patagonia’s Materials Innovation Engineer, “out of all the anti-odor technologies we tested, HeiQ Mint provided the highest odor control performance, with the added benefit of being plant-based. This innovation enables Patagonia to deliver our customers high-performing products made with the best available chemistry.”

Another advantage of HeiQ Mint is the ability to be applied and marketed worldwide, without the need for biocidal declaration on product labels, since it is based on a blend of essential mint oils and naturally derived deodorizing ingredients. HeiQ Mint is just Fresh by Nature.

It is ideal for next-to-skin products like sports apparel, underwear, linings, casual and business wear but also home textiles such as bed linen, pillow fabrics, or mattress textiles, both on cellulosic and synthetic fibers.

Einen wichtigen Beitrag dazu leistete das im Juli 2020 mit der Unternehmensberatung EY Parthenon entwickelte und wie geplant umgesetzte Performance-Programm zur Förderung von Ertragskraft und nachhaltigem, globalem Wachstum. Um die idealen Rahmenbedingungen für den weiteren Erfolgskurs zu schaffen, vereinfacht BOGNER nun die Management-, Governance- und Unternehmensstrukturen.

Gerrit Schneider übernimmt als alleinige CEO
Gerrit Schneider, seit April 2020 Co-CEO von BOGNER und zuständig für die Bereiche Finance, Legal, IT, Operations und HR, wird mit sofortiger Wirkung die alleinige Geschäftsführung von BOGNER übernehmen. Heinz Hackl, bisheriger Co-CEO von BOGNER und derzeit verantwortlich für die Bereiche Sales, Design, Marketing und Lizenzen, verlässt BOGNER in gegenseitigem Einvernehmen.

Der ehemalige BOGNER-CEO Andreas Baumgärtner (2017-2020) rückt für produkt- und designspezifischen Themen näher an die Geschäftsführung und intensiviert seine beratende Rolle. Er hat das Unternehmen bereits in den vergangenen Jahren im Hintergrund beraten und wird nun die zukünftige Ausrichtung noch stärker begleiten und mitgestalten.

Im Rahmen dieser Anpassung richtet BOGNER einen aufsichtsführenden Unternehmensbeirat ein. Der mit erfahrenen Persönlichkeiten besetzte Beirat wird das Management umfassend in der strategischen Ausrichtung beraten, als Sparringspartner zur Verfügung stehen und als Aufsichtsorgan dienen.

Hologenix® celebrates 20-year anniversary

Hologenix®, creators of CELLIANT®, began 20 years ago with the idea of improving the quality of people's lives and health with an emphasis on non-invasive, natural, holistic healing. Co-founder and CEO Seth Casden became fascinated with the effect infrared has on the body and worked with a dedicated team to develop and market CELLIANT® infrared technology and thus materials science innovator Hologenix came to be.

CELLIANT, a proprietary blend of IR-generating bioceramics that are ethically sourced, is a unique combination of nature and performance. CELLIANT captures and converts body heat into infrared energy for increased local circulation and cellular oxygenation, resulting in stronger performance, faster recovery and better sleep. It is a key ingredient in textiles, spanning both performance and fashion apparel, sleep and lounge wear, bedding, upholstery, uniforms and medical supplies.

It is a key ingredient in textiles, spanning both performance and fashion apparel, sleep and lounge wear, bedding, upholstery, uniforms and medical supplies.

The first partnership Hologenix secured was with the Ireland-based fiber company Wellman International Limited, a fully owned subsidiary of Indorama Ventures and a pioneer in recycling technologies. Hologenix still works with them today, a tribute to the company’s ability to form long-term partnerships with like-minded organizations, and their joint project of pure white CELLIANT rPET fiber was shortlisted for a prestigious Drapers Sustainable Fashion Award earlier in the year.

On the brand side, many of the first brands to incorporate CELLIANT were in the sportwear industry, including Adidas, Reebok, Saucony, Eastern Mountain Sports, Sierra Designs sleeping bags and Superfeet insoles.

In 20 years, Hologenix has achieved many scientific milestones, and CELLIANT has been and continues to be rigorously tested by a Science Advisory Board composed of experts in photobiology, nanotechnology, sleep medicine, and diabetes and wound care. The Science Advisory Board has overseen nine peer-reviewed published studies that demonstrate CELLIANT’s effectiveness and the benefits of infrared energy.

Looking ahead, Hologenix is continuing to research applications for CELLIANT in the agriculture industry and wound healing and diabetes. Expansion into the FemTech market with both product applications and scientific research about the benefits of infrared for women’s health issues is also on the horizon.

Dow: Advanced silicone ink for printing especially on highly elastic garments

Patented SILASTIC™ LCF 9600 M Textile Printing Ink Base addresses growing demand for improved performance in textile applications

With the continued global growth of the apparel market, the use of polyester, nylon and blends of these materials with elastane is also on the rise, especially in sportswear and loungewear. To support this higher demand for synthetic textiles, Dow is launching a patented silicone ink – SILASTIC™ LCF 9600 M Textile Printing Ink Base – that can be used for printing on synthetic and cotton fabrics, particularly highly elastic garments.

The increased use of synthetic yarns in recent years has resulted in greater performance requirements on ink chemistries such as durability, elongation and ease of use in highly elastic sportwear. To address these needs, Dow leveraged the exceptional benefits of silicone ink bases with products such as SILASTIC™ LCF 9600 Textile Printing Ink Base and SILASTIC™ 9601 Textile Printing Ink Base.

Designed for an increased matte effect and improved hand feel, the patented SILASTIC™ LCF 9600 M offers excellent wash durability, high elongation, very soft low tack touch and avoids the “orange peel effect” on cotton substrates. Additionally, SILASTIC™ LCF 9600 M enables safer textile development with its ability to be formulated without the use of PVC, phthalates, solvents, organotins and formaldehyde.

adidas and SOUL CAP announce partnership to make swimming more accessible

The adidas x SOUL CAP partnership aims to promote greater diversity and inclusivity in the world of swimming, by helping to break down social barriers in the sport.
The debut swim cap has been designed for people with long or voluminous hair in a range of sizes, for adults and children, in an exclusive linen green colorway.

adidas announces its first swim cap made in partnership with London-based start-up SOUL CAP , which will be available from 26th September. This collaboration – which follows the launch of adidas’ full-cover and inclusive sizing swimwear ranges last summer – is part of the brand’s ongoing commitment to make water sports more accessible.

This collaboration – which follows the launch of adidas’ full-cover and inclusive sizing swimwear ranges last summer – is part of the brand’s ongoing commitment to make water sports more accessible.

The idea for SOUL CAP was born in 2017 when founders Michael Chapman and Toks Ahmed took up adult swimming lessons, after not having learned how to swim as children. They noticed a problem during their classes – every swimmer wore the same size swim cap, no matter what hairstyle they had, which often resulted in people struggling with ill-fitting caps. This observation led to them creating SOUL CAP, a company that makes swim caps designed for people with long or voluminous hair.

The adidas x SOUL CAP swim cap is made from 100 per cent silicone, which creates less snag on the hair ensuring a more comfortable fit. Built with extra space, it provides a snug fit and tight seal to keep long and voluminous hair dry and healthy through every type of swim. The collection consists of an adult cap in sizes Regular-XXL and a children’s cap in sizes Regular-L, in an exclusive linen green colorway.

adidas by Stella McCartney: Industry-First, with Viscose Sportswear

The garment is part of the New Cotton Project, an EU Consortium of key players united to demonstrate the potential of circular garment production
adidas by Stella McCartney presented a first of its kind sportswear garment designed to demonstrate the potential of a circular fashion ecosystem. Joining forces with leading names and innovators in the fashion industry to create, test, and innovate, the tracksuit forms the pinnacle expression of the brand’s pilot circularity program, Made to Be Remade. A take-back scheme where consumers can wear it down and then return it by scanning a QR code via the product so it can be remade. Moving adidas closer to its goal to help end plastic waste.

A take-back scheme where consumers can wear it down and then return it by scanning a QR code via the product so it can be remade. Moving adidas closer to its goal to help end plastic waste.

It’s currently estimated that just under 1% of all textiles worldwide are recycled into new textiles, so it’s vital the textile industry comes together to learn and knowledge-share. Scheduled across a three-year period, the consortium which includes partners such as Frankenhuis have collected and sorted post-consumer end-of-life textiles, which using pioneering Infinited Fiber technology have been regenerated into a new man-made cellulosic fiber called Infinna™ - which looks and feels just like virgin cotton. This is then turned into a yarn blended with organic cotton, for garment production.

Designing the tracksuit, made using viscose (60% viscose, 40% organic cotton) as a consortium member took the process from a linear to a circular model , as the apparel’s function and style were of equal focus to the garment’s end of life existence.

At the end of the project, consortium partner Aalto University, a Finnish multidisciplinary community specialising in science, art, technology , and design, will distribute learnings with the industry and bring this potential circular design solution to the ever-eco-conscious consumer.

Neue Epson Dye-Sublimationsdrucker

Mit der Markteinführung von zwei neuen 44-Zoll-Dye-Sublimationsdruckermodellen baut Epson sein Portfolio der Dye-Sublimationsdrucker weiter aus. Die neuen, für kleine bis mittelgroße Druckvolumen entwickelten SureColorSC-F6400 (4 Farben) und SureColorSC-F6400H (6 Farben), eignen sich besonders für den Sublimationsdruck auf Textilien im Mode- und Sportbereich sowie für polyesterbeschichtete starre Medien. Die neuen Epson SureColor SC-F6400 und SC-F6400H sind ab Dezember 2022 verfügbar.

Dank der in den Maschinen verbauten Epson Micro TFP PrecisionCore-Druckköpfe erhalten Anwender eine reproduzierbar hohe Bildqualität. Auch verbessern zahlreiche neue Funktionen der neuen Modelle die Produktivität von Druckdienstleistern im Vergleich zu den Vorgängermodellen der SC-F6300 Reihe um rund 20 Prozent.

Auch verbessern zahlreiche neue Funktionen der neuen Modelle die Produktivität von Druckdienstleistern im Vergleich zu den Vorgängermodellen der SC-F6300 Reihe um rund 20 Prozent.

Die SC-F6400H Variante der neuen Drucker deckt dank des wählbaren Farbsets einen deutlich breiteren Farbraum ab. So stehen hier neben den Farben CMYK auch noch wahlweise die Farbpaare fluoreszierendes Pink und fluoreszierend Gelb, Light Cyan und Light Magenta oder Orange und Violet zur Verfügung. Damit eröffnet der SC-F6400H als 44-Zoll-Dye-Sublimationsdrucker eine Fülle an Einsatzmöglichkeiten sowohl auf Textilien als auch auf starren Materialien. Das ist besonders für Hersteller von Mode, Heimtextilien, Sportswear, Soft Signage und Werbeartikeln interessant.

Anwender profitieren bei den Modellen SC-F6400 und SC-F6400H ebenfalls von den neu entwickelten Tintenkartuschen mit nochmals erhöhter Kapazität. So besitzen die Gebinde ein Volumen von 1,6 l und damit etwa 45 Prozent1 mehr Tinte, sodass Stillstandzeiten wegen eines häufigen Kartuschenwechsels ebenso minimiert werden wie die Abfallmenge aufgrund leerer Tintenbeutel. Die Patronen werden vor dem Einsetzen lediglich kurz geschüttelt und sind auf diese Weise schnell und sauber ausgetauscht. Die Drucker verfügen zusätzlich über einen neuen 4,3 Zoll (10,92 cm) messenden Touchscreen, der damit 30 Prozent größer ist als beim Vorgängermodell. Das vereinfacht die Bedienung weiter. Beim SureColor SC-F6400H ist zusätzlich eine Aufrolleinheit im Lieferumfang enthalten.

With Made with Nature, we are on a journey to a world beyond plastic. We’re calling time on conventional materials and methods of make. Once depleted, there’s no coming back for fossil resources. But when we design in synergy with natural processes, when we make with nature, we can use materials that regrow or regenerate – and change the way products are made."
