Enhanced Stretch Technology for Workwear

British textile manufacturer Carrington Textiles introduces fabrics that combine freedom of movement with protective functions. Under the motto "Stretch the Standard," the company developed materials designed to enhance comfort and performance standards in workwear.

The product range spans weights from 170 to 365 gsm, covering different work requirements. Lightweight variants like Michigan and Rivington suit everyday applications, while midweight fabrics like Denver at 210 gsm offer comfort under high stress conditions.

Focus on Sustainability and Flame Protection

Eight of the new fabrics contain sustainable fibres, underlining Carrington's commitment to environmentally friendly production processes. Flamemaster 365 Eco at 365 gsm combines protection with recycled polyester content. Circularis 245 is produced using chemically recycled polyester from textile waste.

For protective fabrics, Carrington achieves new quality standards: Flametougher 290AS Flex was tested in stretched condition by accredited testing laboratory STFI as an industry first. Results confirm that flame retardant protection is maintained under tension – an important technical development for flexible workwear.

Diverse Solutions for Modern Work Environments

The collection includes four fabrics with flame retardant protection, including Flametougher 240AS Flex and 290AS Flex with XLANCE stretch fibre plus antistatic properties. Marano delivers four-way stretch powered by LYCRA T400 EcoMade fibre, while Varano, Grasmere and Grizedale achieve sustainable comfort through blends with bio-based stretch polyester.

The 150 square metre booth across two floors presents the innovations with special exhibition areas and garment displays. Additionally, Carrington Textiles introduces newly designed product guides.
