“Customers have long asked for in-stock inventory without the standard production lead times, and this announcement enables rapid order fulfillment in time for fall/winter 2019 production to meet increased demand,” says Gary Smith, Polartec CEO.
Recognising that consumers and customers alike want things more on demand, with shorter lead times, Polartec Ready to Roll enables more responsible production forecasting and minimises waste. The programme is an extension of Polartec Eco-Engineering, the process by which Polartec deploys recycled and biodegradable inputs, advanced production techniques, highly efficient logistics, and rigorous testing and certifications to create an innovation pipeline devoted to producing sustainable fabrics with elite performance characteristics. This includes Oeko-Tex and bluesign certifications across all Polartec facilities worldwide, and the Polartec Eco-Engineering effort seeks to set a new, higher ‘triple bottom line’ standard for the textile industry: fully recycled inputs, fully recyclable fabrics, and complete biodegradability.
