Ventile reports unprecedented growth in sales of the Eco . range

Sustainable textile manufacturer Ventile, known for its performance textiles worn by explorers such as Ranulph Finnes and Sir Edmund Hillary, has reported exponential growth in its Eco fabric collection with a 600 percent increase in sales from Q1 2020 to Q2 2021.

The unprecedented demand for eco-friendly ranges now accounts for more than 50 percent of total sales for textile brands and has helped Ventile achieve its highest quarterly sales showing that there is a surge in interest in sustainably grown fabrics from global markets and consumers.

The Ventile Eco collection currently consists of 14 different fabrics made from organic cotton, recycled cotton, or fabric blends incorporating hemp, linen or lyocell. Everything has been designed to strike the best balance between performance, comfort and sustainability.

Every fabric construction is made using materials and processes that have minimal impact on the environment, explains the textile brand.

Commenting on the sales growth, Ventile’s marketing manager, Daniel Odermatt, said in a statement: Our figures reveal the drive for sustainability and innovation in the fashion sector is stronger than ever. The change is seen around the world and now more than ever represents a changing pace for the textile industry, of which we are very proud to be a part.

The growing awareness of the environmental implications of fast fashion cotton production has fueled further interest and demand for our fabric and we only see this continue to increase over the years to come.

Ventile continues to push boundaries in outdoor, leisure and fashion apparel and equipment with innovative, cutting-edge and eco-friendly technology. In June, it launched two new fabrics as part of its growing eco-friendly range. NS Ventil Eco 420 and Ventil Eco 430, both of which are machine washable 100 percent recycled cotton fabric that challenges what’s possible with coarse recycled yarn.

Ventilation fabrics are used by some of the most prestigious brands in the industry, including Loewe, Jil Sander, Wildling, Hilltrek, Asphalte, BonneGueule and Morehouse.
