Levi Strauss & Co. Announces More Than $300,000 In Humanitarian Aid For Refugees In Eastern Europe And A Temporary Suspension Of Commercial Operations In Russia

SAN FRANCISCO — March 7, 2022 — In response to the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, which is driving growing numbers of refugees into countries across Eastern Europe, Levi Strauss & Co. (LS&Co.) today announced that it is donating more than $300,000 to nonprofit organizations providing aid to those impacted by the ongoing conflict. The company and the Levi Strauss Foundation are giving $200,000 to the International Rescue Committee, which is helping to support individuals and families displaced by the conflict, while the company’s Beyond Yoga brand is giving $100,000 to CARE, which is responding to the immediate needs of the people of Ukraine.

In addition, the company is offering employees a 2-to-1 match, up to $200,000, for donations to a slate of organizations committed to ensuring that the most vulnerable communities get the support they need, including several that are ensuring discrimination doesn’t occur at border crossings. LS&Co. and its licensee partners are also working to donate jackets, backpacks and warm clothing to people who have been displaced from their homes.

Given the enormous disruption occurring in the region, which makes normal business untenable, LS&Co. is temporarily suspending commercial operations in Russia, including any new investments. The company is committed to supporting its employees, partners and their families affected by this decision in the months ahead.

In 2021, approximately 4 percent of the company’s total net revenues were derived from Eastern Europe, half of which was related to Russia. But any business considerations are clearly secondary to the human suffering experienced by so many. The LS&Co. community continues to be saddened by the devastating conflict in Ukraine and our thoughts are with all of those who have been affected, including our employees, partners and their loved ones.

Woolroom Announces First Ever Washable Organic Bedding Line

OAKHAM, England — March 7, 2022 — Woolroom, the premium lifestyle bedding and home brand that specializes in products with traceable wool fibers, today announced the first-ever Organic Washable Wool bedding line. All the products in the 21-piece collection are Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS®) certified. The collection is a reflection of Woolroom’s commitment to a more responsible supply chain while offering premium quality and the healthiest sleep ever.

The Organic Washable Collection will feature a wool comforter in light, medium, warm and all-season weight, wool pillows, wool mattress protector, and wool mattress pad – made by expert craftspeople from traceable farms in the UK to provide GOTS certified wool. All the pieces in the collection are certified to ensure that the entire supply chain, from the farm to the finished product, meets the stringent ecological and social criteria set by the GOTS organization and that harmful chemicals and dyes are not used. GOTS is considered the gold standard for organic certification.

“Wool Room is so proud to bring the first ever machine washable organic wool bedding line to market. Having it be certified by GOTS furthers our commitment to providing the healthiest bedding for our customers, their homes and our planet,” stated Chris Tattersall, managing director of Woolroom. “We are committed to providing products that grow and evolve with our community while protecting our environment. Working with the GOTS® certified farmers to provide the softest, healthiest, bedding with the utmost care takes that commitment to the next level.”

Making Wool Washable

To successfully make wool machine washable it required treatment to help the fiber withstand the washing machine. The treatment involves bathing the wool in a big tank filled with water and natural minerals. Oxygen is then blown through the tank. This step weakens the fibers to make them bendy and springy which makes them more malleable when washed. Now that the wool is treated, once it is washed it will prevent shrinkage and felting for a superior product.

This is the first time a consumer doesn’t have to compromise the health of their sleep. Woolroom has always provided temperature regulating bedding, thanks to the natural qualities of wool. Now with this new line, consumers can have it all — certified organic, naturally hypoallergenic, washable, temperature regulating bedding — for the first time. To further, the sustainability of this product Woolroom is recommending that users recycle or compost their wool duvet or pillow at the end of the product’s life. It will decompose and return to nature causing no environmental contamination.

Verdex Technologies Poised To Disrupt The Nonwovens Industry After Securing Funding To Scale Its Proprietary Nanofiber Technology

NORTH CHESTERFIELD, Va. — March 7, 2022 — Verdex reports it has secured financing to scale its proprietary nanofiber technology. The investment, lead by SOSV, an international venture capital firm which has invested $3.9 million to date, will fund the completion of a commercial manufacturing unit located in Richmond, Va. This investment follows ten years of customer validation from top-tier nonwoven companies, critical R&D, and patent filings, resulting in a unique functionalized production technology that is capable of producing a wide range of advanced nanofiber products.

Verdex was founded by Dr. Larry Marshall in 2010. Dr. Marshall who spent his career at DuPont developing and commercializing Tyvek®. Verdex uses a proprietary solvent-free process using only low heated air to produce its nanofiber media.

“One of the most unique abilities in The Verdex Process® is our ability to customize and functionalize our nanofibers,” said Damien Deehan co-CEO at Verdex. “This allows Verdex to incorporate particles into the fiber matrix to target specific challenges and problems in multiple industries to create game-changing products.”

As Verdex looks for a disruptive product to go-to-market, Verdex has concentrated all its efforts in developing a first in class HVAC/HEPA media and product that Verdex believes will be a game-changer for the industry. Unlike current HVAC media which lacks the ability to capture viruses/submicron particles, Verdex’s patented process provides a 3D nanofiber media which combines high submicron particle capture.

Verdex is actively looking for leaders in their respective industries, who are interested in purchasing nanofiber media and integrating this patented technology into their own products to create higher value products that command high value in the market place.

Beaulieu Fibres International Offering Efficiency Solutions For The Filtration Industry At Filtech 2022

WIELSBEKE, Belgium — March 7, 2022 — Beaulieu Fibres International is heading to Filtech set on fostering collaborative product development to address the industry’s increasing clean air and energy management priorities. The leading European polyolefin and BICO fibre supplier is exhibiting at Europe’s largest filtration event for the first time (Hall 7 Stand R12).

“The market is constantly looking for new solutions that help to improve air quality and increase the quality of food and industrial liquids, in an energy efficient way. Improving filter efficiency with a low pressure drop is a key challenge in this constant process of setting new standards, and we are very excited about the capabilities of our polypropylene fibres to bring innovation to this area. It’s a big focus for our R&D teams,” comments Jefrem Jennard, sales director Industrial Fibres, Beaulieu Fibres International.

“Close collaboration and co-development are so important for quickly and effectively targeting emerging needs. Filtech will provide an excellent platform for kick-starting conversations with visitors and exploring possibilities to benefit a whole host of applications.”

Beaulieu Fibres International offers an extensive range of mono-component and bi-component polypropylene (PP) fibers for air and liquid filtration. The company continues to develop and grow the market for food contact filtration and is committed to extending its fibres’ potential to improve filtration efficiency in air filtration markets.

Its wide variety of fibre diameters, tenacities, textures, bulk and surface areas, create unique opportunities for manufacturers to further push filtration efficiency without compromising on pressure drop. This results in filter media delivering improved air quality in the case of HVAC systems or automotive cabin air filters and increased particle retention in the food processing industry.

PP is particularly relevant to the heightened focus on clean air, as it is chemically inert, resistant to microbial attack. It does not take on humidity and allows a static charging. BFI’s latest Ultrabond fiber, allows the design of fully recyclable single polymer filter media, with improved bonding and stiffness properties.

To support customers in accelerating the commercialization of new filter media, Beaulieu Fibres International has a Pilot Line at its production site in Terni, Italy, available for joint development. It gives customers the flexibility to test and adapt new solutions at an early stage, saving them time and costs.

DTG Digital Will Launch The Q1•T Series DTF Transfer Printer At The FESPA Global Print Expo In May 2022

SYDNEY, Australia — March 1, 2022 — DTG Digital, subsidiary of Pigment.Inc, is launching its new flagship Direct-to-Film Transfer Printer, the Q1•T Series at the FESPA Trade Show which takes place May 31 to June 3, 2022, at the Messe Berlin in Germany. The event is Europe’s leading exhibition for screen, digital, wide format and textile printing technology. The Q1•T Series is a dedicated roll-to-roll DTF transfer printing system for indirect fabric decoration. It prints transfers onto a translucent PET film before passing through an in-line powder glue station and curing unit. The in-line system prints, polymerizes and cures the ink and glue layer ready for heat transfer application onto a broad range of natural and synthetic fabric types including, cottons, Polyesters, Poly-cotton blends, Tri-blends, Spandex and Nylon.

The Q1•T Series Printer simplifies the transfer printing process while simultaneously boosting production capacity and application versatility. With dual print heads for faster print speeds and eight ink lines dedicated to both white and color inks, users can produce up to five times the volume of comparable garment decoration methods. The color configuration is CYMK + White + Flush liquid (A.I.R-ink refresh) with inks available in user replaceable 1.0L bags. The ink system is pressurized with re-circulation along with (WIMS) for white ink management which stops settlement of pigments in the ink — which in turn reduces print head maintenance. The A.I.R-ink refresh feature manages ink line, capping station, damper and print head maintenance with push button control to draw the flushing liquid around the system to reduce blockages and minimize maintenance downtime.

The system can take PET film rolls up to a width of 460mm x 100 meters in length. The film and adhesive glue powders are designed for cold peel transfer and manufactured by Kodak. The translucent PET transfer film makes it easier for positioning onto the garment which remains visible through the transfer sheet for final positioning prior to heat pressing. The PET film’s thickness of about 0.75mm allows for better transfer characteristics including a short 10 second transfer time. The dimensions of the Q1-T Series measures 1330mm(W) x 1250mm(H) x 2100(L)mm – assembled and 770mm (W) x 1080mm (H) x 1610 (L)mm – unassembled and fits through a standard doorway.

Pigment.Inc CEO Steve Richardson said: “The DTG Digital Q1•T transfer printer is creating a new standard for professional garment decoration and we are excited to launch it at the upcoming FESPA event in Berlin. The system is designed for 24/7 operation and perfect for any garment decorator looking to expand and simplify the entire transfer printing process. One of the big advantages of the Q1•T Series is its ability to produce large volumes of transfers at speed and which are suitable for more than just garment decoration. The Q1•T Series prints indirect transfers suitable for decorating an endless array of both natural and synthetic fabrics including backpacks, umbrellas, hi-vis workwear, rainwear and caps. The DTF transfer system will make the ultimate addition to any garment decorator’s equipment line-up by expanding the range of products that can be decorated with indirect transfers and a standard heat-press for application.

The Q1•T Series will open up new revenue streams and complement existing technology whether it be screen, embroidery, DTG or other garment decoration processes. The shorter transfer heat press time and production capacity on the Q1•T Series is what makes this new technology so innovative. You can produce brilliant full-color prints on virtually any type of fabric in any placement on a wider range of substrates.
