Sustainability, going green, circularity and Ecology, were the trending topics at the Kingpins Amsterdam Show.
We are living in a time where we have to be extremely careful of our natural resources. Because of the excess of usage, we are running out of them and by our lack of commitment and attention we are improving global warming and deteriorating our beloved world.
In the most recent times the denim industry is creating a lot of effort to put its grain of sand into the world and completely transforming the business into a cleaner and more ecofriendly one.

On Global Denim we can read the following excerpt;
“Global Denim also teased a new collection of closed loop denim slated to launch in Fall 2018. The fabric is made with recycled fabrics from its own facilities. The mill is testing fabrics made with up to 70 percent recycled fibers.”
Every time a trade show ends, we can always rely and read the best news and recap of it in the incredible Rivet /sourcing Journal portal.
This great article highlights how denim mills bring the innovation to the brands, providing trend, fit, color and creative directions.
on Global we can read the following:
“Mexico-based Global Denim brought back an expanded B-Touch collection, a range of peached fabric with an ultra soft hand. The mill added indigo to the popular line, which launched last season with black, gray and PFD for garment dye. “Everyone asked for indigo, but it was tricky to get it right because the process scrapes indigo off. We had to find the right balance,” Jake Fraser, Global Denim director of U.S. sales and marketing, said.”
