RE:SPACE is our line of technical textiles meeting high ecological standards and used especially in vehicles. For example, these products can be separated, recycled and returned back into the product cycle on a single-variety basis. This is possible thanks to our standardization of the raw and auxiliary materials that we use in a manner resulting in a single-variety end product, and further aided with our short distances and interconnected processes. The special yarns we use for RE:SPACE products also eliminate the need for dyeing, and emissions are handled with a subsequent thermal treatment. The heat generated by the process is fed back into the municipal district heating network. This is a truly exciting technical textile featuring uncompromising quality for great capability.
