Saya has been awarded the 2021/22 ISPO Textrends selection award in fibers and insulations for two offerings, Rscuw and Rscuw Raw, which provide renewal solution for leftover rolls of fabric and cutting scrap. Each year the ISPO awards honour the highlight products of sports industry which are the result of innovation, passion and creativity.
 
ISPO Textrends serves as a guide and seal of quality for designers and product managers to aid in decision-making in a multi-layered market.
 
The Saya Rscuw Project (Recycled Scrap and Cutting Waste) addresses the garment industry’s largest areas of hidden waste: cutting scrap and overstock fabrics. Statistically cutting scrap amounts to 25 per cent wastage per yard with fabric overruns amounting to 8.7 million tons in 2019. In addition, fabric overstock recycling has been difficult and expensive. Saya Rscuw, which is made of a combination of overstock/cutting scrap and post consumer recycled PET bottles, creates new recycling possibilities for what would typically end up in landfills. 
 
“Saya fibres were developed with the goal of advancing recycled fibres to meet the performance expectations of both consumers and product developers. Today’s consumers are using their purchasing power to demand sustainability, but they don’t want to sacrifice performance. With Saya Rscuw there is no longer compromise needed and we are making progress in refining the technology needed to renew fabric and eventually garments,” Jason Hsu, Saya sales manager, said in a press release. 
 
Rscuw Raw is differentiated because the fibres are recycled without the bleaching process, retaining the original source colour of offcuts, deadstock and/or tinted PET bottles. Being unbleached is up to 30 per cent more energy efficient and carbon friendly compared to bleached renewed fibres.
 
Saya Rscuw and Rscuw Raw are available with several performance enhancements, including ChromShield solution-dye technology, to provide ultra-rich colour and superior fade resistance, stretch made with 50 per cent recycled PET + 50 per cent bio-based PTT, antibacterial properties and filament sizes ranging from microfiber for ultimate drape to ballistic options for maximum strength and abrasion resistance.
