Sitip at Milano Unica: Innovation, Sustainability, and Performance at the Core of the New Textile Offering

Milan, July 2024 – Sitip, the Bergamo-based leading manufacturer of technical fabrics for the industrial and apparel sectors, is pleased to announce the unveiling of its latest collection at Milano Unica, one of the most prestigious events in the fashion and textile industry. This event, which brings together the top market players to celebrate textile excellence and innovation, will take place from July 9th to 11th in Milan.

The new fabrics presented at the event combine high technical performance with modern aesthetic appeal, perfectly catering to the needs of leading fashion brands. Sitip’s collection is the result of meticulous work and a constant commitment to sustainability and innovation.

This year’s major highlight will be displayed in the Innovation Area of Milano Unica. Here, Sitip will unveil a new fabric developed in collaboration with RadiciGroup, a global leader in advanced textile solutions, that has launched a yarn containing a unique tracer that remains detectable throughout all processing stages, both on the fabric and the finished garment.

During the event, Sitip will showcase two garments made from this yarn, each equipped with a QR Code. Scanning the fabric with the dedicated scanner at the stand will reveal the polymer and provide access to comprehensive information about the product’s origin and supply chain journey.

New products and bestsellers on display include:

Native-Blizzard: Showcasing Sitip’s commitment to sustainable production, the Native line is entirely made with recycled yarns and low-impact chemicals. Blizzard, a bestselling winter fabric, offers excellent insulation thanks to its thick brushing, ensuring high thermal comfort.

Paris GZ Cosmopolitan: A circular thermal fabric, with an ultrasoft microfiber inner layer and bi-elastic structure. Its technology combines breathability and comfort with a soft touch, excellent UV protection (UPF50+), and a no-see-through effect.

Venice Cosmopolitan: A bi-elastic warp-knit fabric that is breathable and comfortable on the skin, providing excellent coverage and UV protection (UPF50+). It is ideal for high-performance polo shirts and t-shirts without compromising on style.

Busy life Cosmopolitan: Also featured at the fair, this bi-elastic warp-knit fabric is particularly suitable for techno-tailored garments. Designed for outerwear, trousers, and jackets, it offers effective sun protection and excellent coverage.

Integrating innovative solutions that reflect the company’s commitment to a greener future, the collection presented at Milano Unica marks another step forward in sustainability. Sitip has recently published its third sustainability report, detailing the company’s progress in reducing emissions, using recycled materials, and optimizing production processes to minimize environmental impact.

The company is strongly committed to these goals, as demonstrated by the product certifications covering the entire collection presented at Milano Unica (Bluesign®, Oeko-Tex® STANDARD 100, GRS, and the Gateway ZDHC mark) and the quality standards reflecting Sitip’s focus on sustainability. Over the years, the company has achieved multiple ISO certifications (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 50001) and recently added two significant certifications: SA 8000, a globally recognized standard designed to ensure optimal working conditions, and ISO 14064, which further underscores the company’s commitment to monitoring greenhouse gas emissions, implementing Carbon Management policies and communicating its commitment to stakeholders.

During Milano Unica, visitors will have the opportunity to closely examine the new fabrics, experience the Sitip world, and appreciate the unique features of the collection.

Silvana Pezzoli, Vice President and Commercial Director of Sitip, stated: “We are excited to participate in Milano Unica and present our collection. These fabrics represent a perfect blend of technical innovation and sustainability, two core values for Sitip. Each product has been carefully designed to offer exceptional performance and a reduced environmental impact. We are proud to showcase our commitment to a more sustainable future and share our innovations with the key players in the textile industry.”
