Believe in BetterPolylana® unlocks new potential in fiber creation with reduced environmental impact and enhanced performance capabilities.

Believe in ProgressPolylana® is made from a mixture of virgin and recycled materials to create an innovative fiber with characteristics like acrylic and wool.

Believe in ChangePolylana® is a low-impact alternative to acrylic and wool with less energy, water, waste, CO2 and microfiber release. Not just di�erent, but better.

Believe in Innovation• Our process begins with customized Polylana® pellets.• rPET flakes from plastic bottles are mixed with Polylana® pellets.• Proprietary blend Polylana® fiber is created.• Fiber is produced and spun into Polylana® yarns.
