Prosperity Textile, a leading Chinese denim producer, has chosen Itema’s iSAVER machine, one of the most sustainable-oriented technology by the company. The device is equipped on the Itema R95002 denim. Itema is a leading global provider of advanced weaving solutions, including advanced weaving machines, spare parts, and integrated services, based in Italy.

Prosperity Textiles is, in fact, one of the early adopters of this new technology chosen for the new plant that the world-famous indigo fabrics producer will open in Vietnam, and that will be exclusively equipped with the latest Itema weaving machine model, demonstrating once again its green, future-oriented approach, according to Itema.

Thanks to its partnership with Itema, Prosperity Textiles makes again a step forward in terms of sustainable innovation, as one of the first denim producers able to successfully turn - even the weaving production - green.

The new technology, developed by ItemaLab, the Itema Advanced Innovation Department, is able to completely eliminate the left-hand weft waste, allowing to insert the weft yarns in the fabric without the need of additional yarns. ISAVER significantly reduces raw material waste, leading to tangible benefits in terms of machine’s efficiency, cost reduction, and energy saving.

For the first time in the weaving industry, a sustainable approach when choosing the weaving equipment is now possible. Thanks to iSAVER, 1,000 kg of cotton per machine per year, the 3 per cent of the total raw materials, will be saved, thus avoiding the waste of 20 million litres of water, equivalent to 400.000 showers.

The introduction of iSAVER clearly sets a new benchmark in terms of sustainability within denim fabric production. Furthermore, the iSAVER is one of the key features of the Itema R95002 denim, the rapier weaving machine born and designed to weave denim guaranteeing to weavers superior textile quality, outstanding user-friendliness, and tangible energy and raw materials saving. ISAVER is a revolutionary device dedicated specifically to denim fabrics able to eliminate the waste selvedge on the left-hand side of the fabric. This is one of the reasons-why Prosperity Textiles has chosen to adopt this extraordinary technology for its new facility. (GK)
