Invista buys Core Denim expertise

Invista has purchased Cone Denim’s and ITG’s dual core patent portfolio.

International Textile Group (ITG) is the parent company of Core Denim.

The patent estate covers a broad variety of dual core yarns, fabrics, and garments made from those fabrics, which are sold in the US, China, and most recently, Europe. The purchase is effective immediately.

Invista was a pioneer in the development of dual core technology with its Lycra Dual FX fabric concept, first introduced commercially in 2010. The Dual FX technology encompasses stretch fabrics made with two stretch fibers – Lycra and Lycra T400 fibers – in a single yarn.

Cone will collaborate with Invista to provide a global platform to take this technology to the next level and will continue to produce yarns and fabrics made with Sgene technology under a license from Invista.

Invista, based in the US, is one of the world’s largest integrated producers of chemical intermediates, polymers and fibers. Its leading brands are Lycra, Coolmax, Cordura, Stainmaster and Antron.

The company’s advantaged technologies for nylon, spandex and polyester are used to produce clothing, carpet, car parts and countless other everyday products.

Cone Denim delivers expertise and denim capabilities that service and inspire the global market. It offers unique collections of Selvage, Performance, Stretch and Natural Indigo denims.
