Branded environment specialist, Moss has launched a new sustainable fabric for the UK graphics, events and retail display markets.
SustainaTex Ocean is made from SEAQUAL® MARINE PLASTIC and recycled polyester and adds to the group’s extensive range of sustainable options.
The new SustainaTex Ocean fabric is made from 100 percent post-consumer waste recycled content and is exclusive to Moss. The fabric is made from 62 percent SEAQUAL® YARN, a traceable material produced from upcycled marine plastic retrieved from oceans, beaches, rivers, and estuaries by the SEAQUAL INITIATIVE, with the remainder supplied from recycled polyester. It is perfectly suited for dye sublimation print, making it ideal for silicone edged graphic (SEG) applications.
By choosing SustainaTex Ocean fabric from Moss, customers then have the option of some of the most sustainable graphics available on the market, with the material, dye sublimation inks, PVC free fittings and sustainable packaging minimising environmental impact. Additionally, once the event has finished or retail graphics been used, they can be sent back to Moss for re-processing, ensuring a responsible end-of-life for the product.
Initially launched in the US, the introduction of the SustainaTex Ocean into the UK market further boosts Moss’s global sustainability practices, minimising waste and reducing their carbon footprint and that their clients.
“The introduction of SustainaTex Ocean in the UK underlines our unwavering dedication to sustainability,” said Moss UK Managing Director Michael Green. “This fabric provides our clients with another high-quality, environmentally friendly option for their graphics and displays. We are place makers, and that means we also want to make our oceans a better place, too. This partnership is the perfect way to help keep our oceans clean and minimise our clients’ environmental impact.”
Moss already offers several environmentally friendly solutions for customers. Its newly launched rental banner scheme, zero-to-landfill waste approach, and a host of materials made from recycled plastics and bottles have all been welcomed by clients.
