By launching JL Renew, Jersey Lomellina has chosen to offer a range of sustainable fabrics, all produced with a 100% recycled polyamide, deriving from post-consumer materials: fishing nets, rigid tulle, carpet fluff etc... saved from the landfill all over the world to be repolymerized through a physical-chemical process to be turned into a new yarn. Fabrics which stem from such a virtuous cycle (recovery, recycling and reuse) are high quality and extremely reliable.

Renew Prime is the sporty soul in this family of “green” fabrics : it has been designed to meet the requirements of the most demanding athletes since it guarantees high performance, extra comfort and maximum freedom of movement.

Certified LYCRA Sport, Renew Prime also offers a correct muscular compression: it reduces vibrations, supports muscles during sport activities reducing strain.The addition of the Xtra Life LYCRA elastomer, moreover, makes this fabric 10 times more sweat, sun creams, oils and chlorine resistant than a standard one, ensuring garments remain perfectly fitting even after many washes and a long use.

The extraordinary package of features boasted by Renew Prime also include: breathability, lightness, fast-dry, UV protection (UPF 50+), pilling and abrasions resistance.
