Fashion for Good-backed Spinnova consortium gains momentum with Tommy Hilfiger joining

Fashion for Good has endorsed Spinnova’s ambition to build a multi-stakeholder ecosystem (consortium) to scale its fibre technology innovation and increase the availability of sustainable SPINNOVA® fibre in the textile materials market. The collaboration marks an important step in Spinnova’s strategy to bring SPINNOVA® fibre to wider commercial adoption through coordinated value chain cooperation.

Fashion for Good supports and helps shape the development and structure of the ecosystem, drawing on its role as a hub for collaboration between brands, retailers, suppliers, innovators and funders. Both partners share a vision of uniting fashion industry stakeholders to accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable industry.

“As we build this multi-stakeholder consortium to bring textile materials with sustainable SPINNOVA® fibre to market, Fashion for Good’s support is invaluable,” says Pedro Brito, Senior Commercial Manager at Spinnova. Katrin Ley, Managing Director at Fashion for Good, adds that breakthrough materials require ecosystem coordination to scale, not just proven technology.

The consortium has now gained further momentum with TOMMY HILFIGER, owned by PVH Corp., joining the Spinnova ecosystem. The brand aims to secure access to SPINNOVA® fibre and develop a dedicated fabric library, expanding the fibre’s application across different product categories. According to Spinnova, the cooperation represents a major step towards enabling the broader availability of sustainable SPINNOVA® fibre in the textile market.

“We are pleased to welcome TOMMY HILFIGER to the Spinnova consortium. Their commitment to exploring materials pilots for sustainability aligns seamlessly with our mission to scale the availability of textile materials made with SPINNOVA® fibre,” Brito concludes.
