UK's Pangaia expands activewear collection with Hyosung creora

The Pangaia Motion collection is the brand’s most bio-based offering to date that’s made with 99.99 per cent plant-based Evo nylon and 30 per cent plant-based creora elastane, the first of its kind. The activewear has an updated look and feel with seamless shapes offering comfort and stretch-designed to feel like a second skin with gentle compression.

The Motion collection features men’s Motion Mesh T-shirt, zipped long sleeve top and tights offered in volcanic grey and black. The women’s collection includes the women’s Motion sports bra, ribbed tank top, T-shirt, shorts and leggings offered in new taupe and cobalt blue, in addition to back, foliage green, and cerulean blue.

“We are thrilled to see such a fabulous reaction to Pangaia’s plant-based Motion collection,” said Claire O’Neill, Hyosung European marketing manager. “It is a true testimony to the fact that consumers are making more sustainable choices when it comes to their apparel purchases. We look forward to our continued collaboration with such an innovative and passionate brand whose aim is to give back to the planet more than it takes.”

Pangaia was the first brand to globally introduce creora bio-based elastane in an activewear range. The yarn is SGS certified guaranteeing that it is made with plant-based materials and produced in an eco-friendly environment. According to a recent third-party LCA, the manufacture of creora bio-based elastane reduces its carbon footprint by 20 per cent as compared to the production of conventional elastane.

The Motion collection is available online at Pangaia’s official website.
