Portuguese manufacturer of smart, custom designed fashion fabrics is seeking partners to enter into manufacturing agreements

Since 1998, this Portuguese company has worked towards all fabrics having a sustainability story in their collections. The company is always setting new goals, discovering new sustainable, smart fabrics through new manufacturing technologies, pushing creativity in their processes. The company’s agenda is dominated by circularity, sustainability and constant innovation. They replace synthetic fabrics with natural, equally functional ones, developing responsible fabrics with innovative natural, regenerative or recycled fibers, produce them locally and supply them to brands. This SME makes smart, custom designed fashion fabrics through its own unique processing and finishing techniques. The company offers fabrics in a full range of natural materials, including cotton, linen and modern regenerated cellulosics, such as lyocell and modal, made from managed woodpulp sources in a closed loop system with minimal waste. The company combines expertise and over 20 years of textile research and development with the latest and best sustainable hi-tech dyeing and finishing processes to better supply the contemporary fashion, sportswear, athleisure and underwear brands. They constantly monitor their entire production process and grant their social and environmental responsibility with some of the most relevant certifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, NP 4457 and STeP by Oeko-Tex®. As a result, their products are granted the GOTS, OCS, GRS, Standard 100 by Oeko-Tex® and/or bluesign® certifications. A state-of-the-art coating line adds to the company’s groundbreaking journey through innovative, functional materials, applying unique green formulations and repurposing multisector residues to create responsible alternatives to leather and bespoke fabrics of the future, to be used in fashion, home textiles, footwear, bags and accessories applications. The Portuguese firm wants to find more genuine opportunities for their smart textiles to find their way onto new markets and grow the international side of their business and is therefore seeking to establish long-term manufacturing agreements with partners who are looking for a quality one-stop manufacturer of smart, sustainable fabrics.
