August in the Eastern US is closing out with record temperatures—with over 75 million people under heat alerts through midweek*. But for firefighters, it doesn't matter how hot the days are, their jobs don't stop and the PPE they need to protect them doesn't change. That's why we develop fabrics for first responders with every threat in mind—heat included. Explore our portfolio of protective FR fabrics and see how we're keeping their health and safety top-of-mind: https://brnw.ch/21wM8IG (*Source: https://brnw.ch/21wM8IF)

One small step for fashion, one giant leap for textile circularity. Congrats to our friends at Circ®.
Zara and Circ® are coming full circle with their second tie up. Following their first collaboration last spring, the high street retailer and the textile technology company are launching their second capsule collection, which drops Thursday. The new pieces are completely made from Circ Lyocell, which is sourced from 50 percent recycled poly-cotton textile waste, and 50 percent FSC-certified wood pulp. Its patented process separates the natural and synthetic material blend. This time around Circ worked with high-end Italian mills on the textile; the Zara design team wanted to elevate the new iteration and play with it in new ways. The result is a series of more architectural looks, including a structured minidress, an long dress with an open-back looped top and pencil skirt among the lineup.

“Chances are you woke up this morning on a mattress containing a Milliken product. Chances are the roof over your head contains a Milliken product,” David Smith, continued. “The warm or cool air blowing through your ductwork passes through a Milliken product. When you get to the car, you’ll find our products in the tires, under the hood, in the trunk and in the interior.” Thank you to Jessica Holdman and the SC Daily Gazette for shining a light on the #textileindustry in South Carolina and #americanmanufacturing.
