This decision provides yet further confirmation of the green, innovative direction the brand is taking, reflecting its mission \u2013 to find innovative materials that promote biodiversity, eliminating petro-chemical products and supporting a positive future for the climate. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe activewear sector generally uses materials with entirely petro-chemical origins, reflecting a need for significant benefits in moisture absorption and performance. However, the introduction of a greater number of bio-based materials means we\u2019ve been able to replace fossil fuels with renewable resources. This is the choice we\u2019ve made for Pangaia\u2019s Activewear 3.0 collection. Our partnership with Fulgar and the use of EVO\u00ae yarn has enabled us to create a new generation of sustainable, high-performance activewear\u201d, says Amanda Parkes, Chief innovation officer of The Pangaia.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

EVO\u00ae by Fulgar<\/strong> yarn is obtained from castor oil, a renewable and sustainable resource. The castor oil plant, in fact, grows sponaneously in arid regions, does not require large amounts of water areas and does not take up land that where food crops can be grown. The biomass from which EVO\u00ae by Fulgar is formed by castor oil seed and the monomers used in the polymerisation process are partially or totally derived from castor oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In all cases the yarn offers the characteristics of the finest quality nylon and is suitable for all textile applications, from sportswear to hosiery, as it is high-performance, very light, stretch and breathable. It dries quickly, is non-iron and boasts natural thermal and bacteriostatic properties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This extensive series of distinctive values and benefits provide maximum comfort and unique performance while respecting the natural world. As a result they are perfectly in line with PANGAIA\u2019s philosophy of \u201chigh-tech naturalism\u201d and are the perfect solution for the creation of the new Activewear 3.0 capsule. Made of 99.99% EVO\u00ae nylon and 30% creora\u00ae elastan, both of vegetable origin, the capsule is the brand\u2019s most bio-based proposal so far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evolution of PANGAIA activewear is an experience in revolutionary wearability, with seamless garments offering extensive benefits in terms of comfort and stretch, in movement, too. With second skin properties, the garments create a sensation of light compression and enable wearers to keep cool and fresh for longer thanks to the patented PPRMINT\u2122 treatment with natural peppermint oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very happy to be working once again side-by-side with PANGAIA in its progress towards increasingly green collections, made possible by the properties of our ecological yarns. It\u2019s a significant recognition of our long-standing commitment to eco-sustainable research and development towards an ethical, circular and increasingly sustainable activewear supply chain\u201d, says Alan Garosi, Head of Marketing at Fulgar.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Pangaia\u2019s Activewear 3.0 collection with EVO\u00ae by Fulgar \u2013 available online at www.pangaia.com<\/a> \u2013 comprises four key models in three colour versions: bra (\u20ac55), crop-top (\u20ac80 euro), shorts (\u20ac65 euro) and leggings (\u20ac100 euro) in black, leaf green and cerulean blue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
