Ternua continues their commitment to circularity with a SS 2026 collection where 70% of the garments are mono-material

Ternua, a B Corp brand since August 2024, has just presented the collection they’ve designed for the spring-summer of next year to their international sales network. In large swaths, it’s a continuation of the previous collection that has a selection of technical garments with minimal environmental impact, and it has a range of renewed colors that respond to market demands. It should be noted that 70% of the pieces in this new collection are mono-material.

In other words, the textiles used cone from a single material, so at the end of their useful life the garments can be recycled easily, because the products made by mixing several different materials, at least today, cannot be recycled. That gives a solution to one of the biggest challenges facing the fashion industry, which is none other than textile waste, something which Ternua is very committed to and that is part of their roadmap for the coming years, where one of their primary goals is to produce entirely circular collections.

The upcoming 2026 spring-summer collection is characterized by being 100% commitment, which means the garments are made with recycled or natural biodegradable materials, organic cotton or regenerative cotton, or Bluesign ® or Oeke-tex® certified textiles. In addition, it is entirely PFC free, the wool used is responsible, and 100% of the polyester is recycled.

By product lines, 88% of Adrenalite, which is the line for high-aerobic-intensity mountain sports like trail running or fast hiking, is mono-material. They are garments whose identity lies in comfort, responsibility, and their design. For the upcoming season of color, the color contrasts of the garments have been reduced and the pockets have been increased. New products include the Xenon Jkt and the Xenon Hood Jkt Men&Women, which is a 100% recycled polyester, multi-activity mono-material jacket suitable for all four seasons made of Dryshell that provides high levels of breathability and comfort and, furthermore, it has a Polygiene antibacterial treatment. That is followed by the Cyclone Pro Jkt, a very lightweight, compactible and mono-material raincoat that is one of the brand’s most technical and multipurpose jackets designed to protect athletes who do trail running, downhill skiing, or even to wear on an urban trip.

In the Trekking line 44% of the products are now circular. It includes highly technical and functional garments with lower color contrasts. Some of the new items that should be highlighted are the Topal Hybrid Jacket Men&Women, an ultra lightweight windbreaker with a little filling in the body that is very compressible, and the Adark short&pant Men&Women made in a circular way with Shellstretch and that are very strong and fresh, or the Sunnik LS Tee Men&Women, which is a t-shirt that has UPF 50+ sun protection. Other star products from previous collections, like the Kars rain jacket or the Otto Jkt, have been kept.

In these two lines, which are the most technical ones in the collection, the brand’s R&D department has done an excellent job, because it’s no easy task to design circular garments with the high degree of technicity consumers want.

On the other hand, in the urban line for active leisure that best shows the history and values of the brand - New Earth Spirit - Ternua is maintaining their commitment to sustainability, by designing 94% of the garments using circularity criteria. For the upcoming spring and summer, a design exercise in designing multipurpose garments suitable for everyday use or for activities, because of their patterns, technology and look, has been done. Highly versatile new products, which are all mono-material, have been included. The Puffy Men&Women jacket and sweatshirt draws attention, because thanks to the three layer construction of the textile the emission of microplastics is reduced by 80% and, furthermore, it’s made with Ocean Bound Plastic recycled polyester that comes from plastic collected in the sea. Other products being presented are shorts-swimsuit and climbing pants. Ternua’s use of regenerative organic cotton is notable, specifically by the Good Earth Cotton brand with a positive climate impact ("climate positive cotton"), that is obtained using regenerative agricultural practices that absorb more CO2 that they emit during the entire life cycle of growth, enriching the soil it is grown in. In addition, it’s free of pesticides and herbicides, and it’s a completely traceable cotton thanks to FibreTrace®, an exercise in transparency that shows the garment’s trip from beginning to end, which is in line with Ternua’s philosophy and their route of sustainable innovation.

In the accessory line, the most technical backpacks have been restyled, unifying the range of colors with the Red Bay line of urban backpacks, which results in an attractive design and lifestyle look. New color combinations with contrasts have been included. And a new SB16 and SU 30 backpack model is also being presented, which now has cleaner lines and improved details. All the backpacks are made with recycled textiles, and the goal is to turn them into mono-material products in future collections.

New study shows low environmental impact by Cotton made in Africa Organic Cotton from Tanzania

Today, the Aid by Trade Foundation (AbTF) is announcing the results of a comprehensive life-cycle analysis (LCA) for cotton produced in Tanzania under the Cotton made in Africa Organic (CmiA Organic) standard. The study emphasises the small ecological footprint of CmiA Organic verified cotton. This can largely be traced back to the absence of synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilisers, and artificial irrigation. Consequently, CmiA Organic cotton can help the textile industry meet regulatory requirements as well as science-based targets. The results also show that the consequences of climate change threaten the livelihoods of these cotton farmers, even though the type of agriculture they practise barely contributes to climate change.
