Mr. Javier Morera Llovera, General Manager, UNITIN – Industrias Morera SA

UNITIN Indigo Yarns for Seamless denim fashion have been showcased at last August’s BLUEZONE International Denim Trade Fair in Munich, when DEN/IM, a new one piece denim fabric concept, was presented in co-operation with Santoni, Lenzing and Tonello.

The new complete total look capsule collection developed by Santoni is composed of body hugging, comfortable, sporty, chic and trendy denim items. This stretch indigo denim concept further enhances the idea of innovative knit denim as a counter-point to the traditional woven denim fabric. The genuine DNA of denim is maintained with contributions from the four leading supply chain partners, being UNITIN the provider of the indigo dyed yarns.

Said Michael Kininmonth, Business Development Manager for Lenzing: “Having previously worked with UNITIN indigo yarns on a flat-bed knit project and knowing the innovative garment processing developments Tonello have brought to the market the decision to work on such a project was an easy one.”
