Consummately Sustainable Swimwear
This Pieces Are Made From Discarded Nets & Recycled Spandex
Rahul Kalvapalle — February 9, 2024Vitamin A, a swimwear company based in California, is launching a range of sustainable swimwear pieces that are made from a novel recycled fabric developed by none other than Hyosung and Hung Yen Knitting & Dyeing.
The 'ReLux' collection leverages the innovation of a swimwear focused material that happens to be made from a combination of Hyosung's post-consumer nylon - which is crafted out of fishing nets that were discarded in water and along coasts - and recycled Spandex.
What's more, the 'ReLux' shares something with all other Vitamin A products in that they are manufactured in California using recycled and plant based products, with the company also dedicated to allotting a percentage of its revenue towards NGOs that carry out work to foster sustainability of oceans and coastal regions.
