The innovation promises to maintain the same level of strength, durability, and colour retention as the company’s established thread offerings. It can be integrated into existing sewing machine lines without any interruption to production.

The introduction of these threads is poised to have a substantial impact on the industry by potentially redirecting millions of garments from landfill annually. This process not only lessens the ecological footprint but also promotes the progression of a circular economy.

Coats apparel commercial senior vice president Adriana Morasco said: “At Coats, circularity is no longer a concept; it’s a commitment. Our Textile-to-Textile threads show that sustainability and performance can go hand in hand. They are designed to fit seamlessly into existing production lines, helping brands move faster toward their circularity goals.”

Looking ahead, Coats looks to ramp up its use of preferred raw materials from 31% in 2022 to 60% by 2026.
