CORDURA Debuts CORDURA re/cor Recycled Nylon 6,6

INVISTA’s CORDURA brand has introduced CORDURA re/cor RN66, urging the industry to ‘Expect More, Waste Less.’

Available in 36 on trend colors for Fall/Winter 2023, the recycled nylon 6,6 collection is durable, responsible and innovated. In terms of quantifiable benefits versus Virgin Nylon 6,6, the production of the trademarked CORDURA re/cor RN66 decreases greenhouse gas emissions by 83 percent, consumes 82 percent less energy, and uses 57 percent less water.

CORDURA re/cor RN66 is made from 100 percent pre-consumer fiber material that is 100 percent GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified.

“One of the main goals behind CORDURA re/cor was to continue to deliver the performance expected of CORDURA Advanced Fabrics, while expanding our portfolio of responsible products,” said Anthony Green, CORDURA Vice President. “What an incredible breakthrough this is for CORDURA and our industry as a whole. It’s something our customers and partners have been asking for and something we’ve been working hard to deliver.”

Nylon 6,6 challenges the throw-away mentality within the textile industry, making it easier for consumers to understand how one ingredient can allow them to get maximum life from their gear and apparel.
