Iluna Group and Maglificio Ripa announce a strategic partnership in the name of sustainable fashion

A single vision, shared values, a constant push for innovation, and above all a deep dedication to sustainable fashion - the real one. Iluna Group and Maglificio Ripa announce a strategic collaboration, each maintaining its own identity and independence, based on the complementarity of the proposal and the convergence of intentions for a new and more functional way of partnership.

 Iluna Group, a leader in the production of smart lace, and Maglificio Ripa, internationally recognized for the production of premium and responsible jersey, both established in common sectors - from underwear to beachwear and sportswear - formally launched this collaboration during the MarediModa show in Cannes with a joint double stand where visitors could discover the latest collections of the two companies and also imagine new designs and solutions for sustainable fashion.

THE COLLECTIONS ILUNA GROUP SS 2023

Iluna's journey into the new dimension of responsible quality continues with ad hoc developments in GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified recycled yarns aimed at unprecedented effects in look, performance, and feel.  In terms of cords and shiny yarns, there has been an expansion of the range of GRS yarns that until now have only been available in opaque.

The precious cord yarn has a ROICA™ EF core, GRS certified and developed with 50% pre-consumer recycled content, double covered with a shiny yarn equally recycled. The brilliant and translucent one is used instead to add shiny effects, which were not possible with a GRS yarn until now.

From this constant search for innovation towards new materials and new techniques that are increasingly sustainable, the printing processes were born: GRS certified sublimation printing and register printing with Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certification. The latter overlaps exactly with the design and colors the details, reaching where dyeing cannot.

Finally, with BIOLINE, Iluna embraces the circular economy and presents proposals that combine AMNI SOUL ECO® polyamide 6.6 yarn, which degrades in about 5 years after disposal, and ROICA™ V550 sustainable stretch yarn which, once disposed of, degrades in a smart way without releasing harmful substances into the environment, according to Hohenstein's Environmental Compatibility Certification.

ROICA™ V550 also carries the Gold Level Material Health Certificate from the Cradle-to-Cradle Product Innovation Institute, which evaluated the yarn's impact on human and environmental health. Finally, Iluna features an exceptional range of natural colors made from flowers and plants and a color chart with 16 shades - but still expanding. All dyes are GOTS certified and their colorfastness meets the requirements of OEKO TEX® Standard 100.
