Candiani develops Re-Gen Denim

Fabric company Candiani Denim has developed a limited edition capsule collection called Re-Gen Denim.

This is a super-selvedge fabric with Tencel Refibra Lyocell that leverages sustainable technologies for a minimized environmental impact. Re-Gen Denim contains 50 per cent recycled fibers and 50 per cent Tencel Refibra Lyocell, made from post-industrial cotton scraps left over from wood and cutting operations.

Refibra Lyocell fibers minimize the need to extract additional raw materials from nature, fostering a more circular economy for textiles and apparel. Yarns woven into Re-Gen Denim are created with regenerated materials instead of virgin cotton.

All yarns are made of regenerated material and do not use fresh cotton. Its peculiarity lies in the use of the Kitotex technology, an international patent that uses chitosan, a substance of natural origin, non-toxic, biocompatible and biodegradable, obtained from the skeleton of crustaceans. The innovative process allows reduction of energy by 30 per cent, water 50 per cent and chemical agents 70 per cent in addition to the non-introduction of Co2 and the total elimination of polyvinyl alcohol.

Re-Gen Denim also uses an additional technology born within the company in a sustainable key: Indigo Juice, a dyeing technique that significantly reduces the consumption of water, chemicals and energy in the process of production and washing of jeans.
