Unifi, the makers of REPREVE and an innovator in recycled and synthetic yarns, launched Fortisyn. This abrasion-resistant yarn is engineered to improve durability in tactical applications. It provides fabrics with enhanced tear and tensile strength as a robust solution for military and first-responder uniforms and tactical gear.
Fortisyn is “made in the U.S.A.” for Berry Amendment-compliant applications.
Fabrics containing Fortisyn can withstand exposure to harsh elements and rough handling while maintaining their form, function and appearance.
“In collaboration with mills and strategic partners, Fortisyn has undergone rigorous fabric testing to validate its exceptional performance,” said Eddie Ingle, UNIFI’s CEO. “The launch marks a step forward in the scaling of recycled, circular technology yarns into the most durable applications.”
Fortisyn, in particular, is:
- Engineered for inherent durability and abrasion resistance.
- Solution-dyed capability for enhanced colorfastness.
- Fully traceable with FiberPrint technology, and certified by U-TRUST, along with Oeko-Tex, GRS and SCS certifications for recycled content.
- Available worldwide and in combination with other UNIFI yarn technologies.
