Innovation company Spinnova and Touchpoint have introduced their first demo product, the Tapio apron in the Gastro Helsinki event. The apron, made of Spinnova’s highly sustainable fibre, is very likely the world’s most ecological piece of workwear to date.

The Finnish circular economy company, Rester Ltd. is building a removal textile plant to Paimio and will be completed in the beginning of 2021. The plant will enable closed-loop services for the customers’ removal textiles and also the manufacturing of new raw material from the removal textiles. Behind the initiative, stands a group of textile industry’s forerunners such as workwear company Touchpoint and Pure Waste which manufactures garments from cutting waste.

Touchpoint is expanding its business to the US. The company has announced a collaboration with Regent Apparel, a California-based workwear manufacturer.

Recyclability and comfort were emphasized in Touchpoint’s collection for the healthcare industry. The collection was created in collaboration with healthcare professionals.

SOL-Services’ nearly 10 000 employees will be wearing ecological workwear. The company’s whole Finnish personnel will work in clothes made from sustainably produced materials.

For the first time we are collaborating with a Finnish sports team. Blues Juniors, one of the leading and most successful Finnish junior ice hockey clubs in the 2000s, is aiming to switch to jerseys made with recycled materials.
