Fashionizer Spa’s Newest Sustainable Fabric
August
2022 – Two years on from its launch of Eco Smooth, sustainable spa uniform
specialist, Fashionizer Spa,
has revealed excellent feedback from its customers. Developed during 2019 and
launched mid-pandemic in 2020, Eco Smooth was a natural progression from the
company's much loved Cotton Performance Fabric. The new material has a silky
finish and combines the properties of organic cotton (60%) and the durability
of ™Newlife PET (37%) with an added touch of Lycra (3%). The result is uniforms
that are elegant to look at and great to wear while incorporating eco-friendly
credentials.
The
versatility of the cotton component of Eco Smooth ensures that it is strong,
breathable, hypoallergenic, comfortable and bio-degradable while the organic
production process reduces the
negative impact on local water
quality and biodiversity.
Additionally, ™Newlife PET is a high-performance textile derived without
chemicals from recycled plastic bottles, achieving a quality fabric with
similar characteristics to silk and cotton. It complements the organic cotton
element of Eco Smooth with anti-bacterial, moisture controlling and fast drying
properties, resulting in a textile which is lightweight, comfortable against
the skin and practical to launder.
The final touch is the addition of high-performance
finishes. Silverplus®, an anti-bacterial environmentally friendly solution, is
applied to help prevent the build-up of odours and a soil release treatment may
also be introduced which allows the uniforms to stay fresher for longer and
enhances launderability at lower temperatures.
Kaitlyn McKissick (Morro) of Infinity Group Gibraltar, says: “The
fit, cut and comfort of our uniforms is important - we want to look stylish and
function easily throughout the day. Fashionizer Spa's garments tick all these
boxes – customers love to see us looking chic, the design supports our
individual shapes and we appreciate the fact that Fashionizer Spa has taken the
initiative to create their garments with sustainable fabrics. The age of
gorgeous and ethical uniforms is here. “
Eco Smooth is currently available in the following
styles: Aurora Spa Tunic, Ursa Spa Shirt, and the Sarin Spa Trousers, in black
and white. Oatmeal will soon be added to the colour range and additional styles
are to follow shortly. Current customers include Nobu Hotels and Aromatherapy
Associates as well as Infinity Group Gibraltar. Uniforms in Eco Smooth can be
used in housekeeping as well as spa environments.
Debbie
Leon, Founder and MD of Fashionizer Spa, says: “The clue is in the name. Eco
Smooth has an elegant sheen, adding a glamorous finish to the garments. It is a
natural addition to our fabric collection, giving our customers more choice of
textures while realising our commitment to reducing environmental impacts.”
