According to DuPont, Sorona is a high-performance fibre made in part from annually renewable plant based ingredients.
Key innovations of the Sorona fibre on show included comfort stretch knitwear and woven collections, that were spandex-free, yet provide exceptional stretch and recovery even after repeated stretches and washes.
Insulation materials made with the fibre were also shown as an alternative to down and feather filling, which offer designers and brands with a fill and down like insulation, suited for lightweight and breathable garments. (AR)
