Anvil Partners with Technosport for Canadian Distribution

 New York headquartered Anvil Knitwear Inc., and Canadian company Technosport have partnered to offer Anvil's Eco Collection in Canada. Technosport will offer two of Anvil's eco-friendly product lines, AnvilOrganic and AnvilSustainable.

AnvilSustainable products are made from post-consumer P.E.T. polyester and combed ring-spun transitional cotton (or cotton in conversion). These T-shirts support the recycling of plastic bottles and the conversion of acreage from conventional cotton farming to organic cotton farming.   Each AnvilSustainable T-shirt is said to use about three 20 ounce recycled P.E.T. plastic bottles and cotton that comes from farms undergoing the three-year process of transitioning to organic (or have become certified organic); each shirt has an estimated cradle-to-grave product life cycle assessment of kg 3.29 CO2e, according to the company.   Continue reading the orginal article on Knitting Industry News.   About Anvil Knitwear
