“Increased use of recycled inputs is a significant aspect of NILIT’s sustainability strategy and something that strongly resonates with conscious consumers these days,” says Michelle Lea, NILIT’s Vice President of Global Marketing. “Plus, the US consumer truly appreciates products that are manufactured locally.”

“Adding the Made in USA recycled Nylon 6.6 to our SENSIL® EcoCare range of products helps us respond effectively to the many US brands, retailers, and government agencies who prefer locally produced, environmentally responsible fabrics,” says Manuel Guerra, NILIT’s General Manager of North America. “Whether for compliance, supply chain management, or sustainability, this newest addition to our SENSIL® portfolio is highly relevant for the entire textile and apparel industry here in the States.”

SENSIL® EcoCare is made from post-industrial recycled Nylon 6.6. NILIT uses a highly efficient recycling method that requires less energy, water, and chemicals and generates a smaller carbon footprint than other recycling procedures. The NILIT recycling process retains the properties of virgin fibers for fine denier, high quality Nylon fibers and yarns. Apparel made with SENSIL® EcoCare is as comfortable, functional, and resilient as it is eco-friendly. Made in USA SENSIL® EcoCare is perfect for activewear, intimates, socks, hosiery, ready-to-wear, workwear, light industrial, medical, and military end uses.
