Environmental Impact

All Cyan and Stone pieces are made out of ECONYL® yarn, regenerated nylon made 100% from waste that would otherwise pollute the Earth.

ECONYL® is made entirely from ocean and landfill waste. 

Industrial plastic, abandoned fishing nets, fabric scraps and carpet fibers are shredded broken down and turned into ECONYL® yarn.

ECONYL® yarn is used to make Carvico® Vita which is breathable, provides UV protection, great coverage, resistant to pilling and provides excellent muscular compression for a quicker recovery from exercise.

For every 10,000 tons of ECONYL® yarn:

  • 70,000 barrels of crude oil are saved

  • Avoid 65,100 tons of C02 emissions

  • ECONYL® regenerated nylon reduces the impact of global warming of nylon by up to 90%

  • The manufacturing facility used in the production of Cyan and Stone products exceeds the minimum labour standards.
