Faslink, a pioneer in supplying green materials to the fashion industry, in collaboration with designer Lam Gia Khang, has introduced a fashion collection using eco-friendly materials such as fabrics made from bamboo, lotus stems, coffee grounds, mint fibres, and nano fabrics in HCM City last week.
The collection includes "infiTec polo" shirts, the first shirts in Viet Nam that were woven using 3D knitting technology, a new fashion technology that helps optimise the production process, save costs and reduce material waste and CO2 emissions.
In addition, Faslink also introduced a series of health-protecting and user-friendly products such as polo shirts using “cooling cafe” material with SPF100+ sun protection, “Offsun” shirts that instantly reduce heat on the skin's surface by 1-2 degrees Celsius, “Charcoal Wear” shirts made from coffee charcoal fibres that help wearers keep warm in winter and cool in summer.
Applied fashion products such as home-washable blazers that are made from a special fabric to keep shape and are easy to wash at home, and “flex shirt” (office shirts made from yoga fabric to deliver comfort to the wearer) are also included in the collection.
The collection not only conveys the message of sustainable fashion, but also affirms that there is no boundary between haute couture fashion and sustainability.
It also marks Faslink's transformation in a new journey, when green materials and innovative technologies are combined in each outfit.
Also at the event, the company unveiled a uniform bank project, which provides a series of ready-to-wear uniform models in a 3D platform.
“Looking back on our 15-year journey, Faslink has achieved many proud milestones. Faslink's products are not only environmentally friendly, but offer health protection features and a great experience, meeting users’ various needs. Faslink always aims to create more differentiated value through efforts in developing innovative fashion technologies,” said Tran Hoang Phu Xuan, CEO of Faslink.
Faslink was the first company in Viet Nam to provide shirt material from bamboo in 2012. Four years later, it was also the first company in the country to launch shirt fabric made from coffee grounds. — VNS
