Lorenzo Bertelli, head of communications and marketing for the Prada Group, announced that all nylon collections will be switched to re-nylon by the end of 2021.
Re-Nylon is a collection of clothing made of recycled nylon "Econyl®", which was created through a partnership with Aquafil, a prestigious weaving and knitting yarn manufacturer.
Econyl® is a nylon made from recycled plastic waste, fishing nets, and textile waste collected from the sea, and can be infinitely recycled without loss of quality through two processes: depolymerization and repolymerization.
The logo of an arrow looped in a triangle is a simple representation of what LINARON is.
Another appeal of re-nylon, which is appropriate for the sustainable age, is its slimy texture. Compared to Prada's previous collections, which are said to have renewed the image of nylon, this collection is not inferior, but perhaps even surpasses it.
