Atlantis Headwear Sustainability Series 2024 US

Technologies The revolution doesn’t stop. Thanks to our continuous R&D we do our best to make the traditional treatments more human and eco-friendly, maintaining the high quality and performance of our fabrics. WR-PFC free it’s our water-resistant treatment that keeps our caps dry without environmentally harmful components. The finishing gives the fabric water-resistant characteristics, without the use of PFCs (perfluorocarbons) compounds, which are not biodegradable and harm the environment, human and animal health. ReTraze Aqua-® is a branded solution dyed recycled polyester yarn made by Recyctex. Unlike traditional wet processes where yarns are produced and then dyed, with dope dyeing the pigments are trapped inside the recycled plastic after it cools to a solid form, becoming part of the new, stronger yarn and saving more energy, water and emissions during the process. The ReTraze Aqua-® source of plastic bottles is collected entirely within 20km from the seashore, and they continue to work on expanding the collection area and tracking system. In contact with the skin, the Dry-tech 100% recycled polyester band is completely breathable, absorbs sweat and allows for quick drying.
