ECONYL® nylon
Our flagship product is ECONYL® regenerated nylon, a product that represents the solution between sustainability and creativity and which can be used for the design of “products of the future”.
The ECONYL® brand is not just yarn. It represents a new way of thinking, which combines our drive for innovation with our commitment to the environment.
Nylon waste – such as fishing nets, fabric scraps, carpet flooring and industrial plastic – is recovered and converted into new yarn, which has the same qualitative characteristics as traditional nylon.


One earth, one chance.
Transitioning to a low-carbon future is no longer an option. It is an urgent and compelling necessity. The destiny of our planet depends on our ability to cut greenhouse gas emissions, reduce waste pollution, harness the power of clean energy, and preserve exhaustible resources.
