Unifi, Inc. will introduce a new product and further product expansion to the marketplace at this year's Outdoor + Snow Show in Denver. The new additions, consistent with meeting sustainability and performance demands, include REPREVE® cationic-dyeable polyester and expanded REPREVE® Our Ocean™ offerings. Unifi has long produced quality offerings to meet the demand for heather yarns that create an exciting aesthetic appeal. Combining sustainability and innovation now allows for a revolution in the heather market. REPREVE cationic-dyeable delivers 100% REPREVE heathers and solids to the market. Offering deeper and brighter colors, as well as improved colorfastness, it can be used in a variety of constructions and across all market segments, from woven to knit to warp knit. The dyeing of these yarns may offer energy savings as compared to some traditional disperse-dyed polyester by utilizing lower temperatures. Unifi continues to see strong interest in REPREVE Our Ocean offerings since launch, as more customers are serious about reducing ocean plastic waste. REPREVE Our Ocean is made with plastics collected within 50km of waterways or coastal areas in developing countries or regions.
