NCTO Issues Statement On The Passing Of Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ), Co-Chair Of The House Textile Caucus & A Fighter For American Manufacturing

WASHINGTON, D.C. — August 21, 2024 — National Council of Textile Organizations (NCTO) President and CEO Kim Glas issued a statement today on news of the passing of Congressman Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) this morning.

Statement by NCTO President and CEO Kim Glas:

The entire U.S. textile industry is mourning the loss of Congressman Bill Pascrell (D-NJ), a true leader and advocate for critical manufacturing policies aimed at bolstering the domestic supply chain and confronting ongoing threats from predatory trade practices.

We commend his significant contributions – not just to the U.S. domestic industry — but for American manufacturers and workers everywhere.

Rep. Pascrell had served as co-chair of the House Textile Caucus with Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC) since 2013 and was an ardent fighter for the U.S. textile industry and beyond.

In April, Congressman Pascrell championed a bill titled the Import Security and Fairness Act led by Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) that would exclude all Chinese imports from de minimis treatment, as highlighted in our blog post on a House Ways & Means markup.

He also penned an op-ed with Congressman McHenry highlighting the urgent need to drive investment and for onshoring and nearshoring textile and apparel production and to not weaken the critical U.S. and Central America  Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR)..

In addition, he co-sponsored legislation aimed at strengthening the American PPE supply chain which would expand the Berry Amendment to nearly all federal purchases of PPE.

As is evidenced above, Congressman Pascrell took on every policy battle in support of U.S. textiles and manufacturing in general as an unwavering supporter of maintaining and expanding a vital domestic manufacturing chain.  He worked closely with Rep. McHenry on critical textile issues to advance the cause for our domestic industry and its workforce.

He will be missed deeply by the industry and to all who knew him. We extend our gratitude to a manufacturing warrior and express our condolences to the entire Pascrell family and his staff team.

NORTHFIELD, Ill. — August 20, 2024 — Medline, a manufacturer and supplier of medical supplies and solutions, announced today that it is the first healthcare product supplier to achieve the Diamond-level Healthcare Industry Resilience Collaborative (HIRC) Resiliency Badge for manufacturing. This award serves as a recognition of the company’s relentless commitment to resiliency within the healthcare supply chain.

The badge recognizes Medline for its best-in-class global manufacturing and supply chain resiliency across multiple product categories, including exam and surgical gloves, personal protective equipment, surgical drapes and gowns, durable medical equipment, wound care, textiles, and several other surgical related product categories.

“This latest manufacturing recognition from HIRC comes on the heels of Medline achieving HIRC’s Diamond-level Resiliency Badge for distribution, highlighting the end-to-end resiliency of our supply chain,” said Josh Wolfe, senior vice president of inventory management for Medline. “Medline’s investments in global manufacturing, sourcing, and logistics infrastructure have helped build a supply chain that keeps healthcare customers prepared through any challenge.”

UNIFI®, Makers Of REPREVE®, Launches Globally Available Circular Polyester Products Made From Textile Waste: White Filament Yarn And Thermaloop™ Insulation

GREENSBORO, N.C. — August 20, 2024 — UNIFI, Inc., an innovator in recycled and synthetic yarn, today announced the launch of two new products, making its circular REPREVE® offering the largest portfolio of regenerated performance polyester in the world. Powered by the Company’s proprietary Textile Takeback™ process, UNIFI® now offers white-dyeable filament yarn and a revolutionary insulation material, ThermaLoop™, representing a major leap forward in scalable textile-to-textile recycling.

“Polyester is the most widely utilized fiber on the planet, and it’s time for transformative change,” said Eddie Ingle, Chief Executive Officer of UNIFI, Inc. “Textile brands can now create solutions with the entire product life cycle in mind and work towards achieving their 2030 environmentally preferred materials targets. Our goal is to provide the best-in-class sustainable products that eliminate the need for virgin materials and reduce carbon emissions.”

Made from 100%* recycled polyester feedstock, with at least 50% textile waste, the two new products both achieve virgin-quality standards. The Textile Takeback™ process recycles both global post-industrial and post-consumer textile waste into next-generation materials using proprietary technologies. Further enhancing value throughout the supply chain, UNIFI will also partner with global brands to take back their waste and keep materials in circulation longer.

With widespread versatility across industries, applications, and colorways, the new circular REPREVE filament yarn is a white, dyeable, high-performance polyester that is designed for the most critical applications. The circular REPREVE polyester line, which also includes black filament yarn and black and white staple fiber, contains the inherent FiberPrint® tracer technology, meaning that all products can gain U-Trust® certification.

ThermaLoop™ insulation, available in down-like fiber, fiberball, and padding, offers performance, recovery, and thermal efficiency. The padding is engineered with REPREVE low melt fiber, a pioneering innovation that enables the production of 100%* recycled synthetic padding. Driven by UNIFI’s ‘waste nothing’ philosophy, ThermaLoop’s launch in black insulation showcases the wide variety of textile waste that can be utilized as feedstock.

The two new products are both available globally now, and can be integrated seamlessly into existing supply chains, without disruption. This commercial scalability tackles a key challenge for polyester-reliant industries, particularly fashion brands, which have long sought to create circular apparel to meet sustainability goals. These products underpin UNIFI’s goal to recycle 1.5 billion T-shirts’ worth of textile waste by fiscal year 2030.
