The textile industry faces an undeniable challenge - waste. As brands and manufacturers grapple with sustainability, one company is turning discarded materials into high-value assets. E.C.I. Elastic Co., Ltd., a global leader in elastic and non-elastic textile tapes, has launched Fancy Yarn -a revolutionary product crafted entirely from 100% recycled waste yarn.

Transforming waste into innovation

Fancy Yarn isn’t just another recycled textile - it’s a statement. By twisting together two, three, or four differently coloured leftover yarns, ECI has unlocked a design-forward solution that breathes new life into textile waste. The result? A vibrant, dynamic yarn that blends sustainability with style, reducing environmental impact without compromising on aesthetics or performance.

“This is more than just a new product; it’s a fundamental shift in how we think about waste,” says Paul Shen, Senior Manager at ECI. “Fancy Yarn proves that sustainability can be both responsible and beautiful.”

Versatility meets circularity

The versatility of Fancy Yarn makes it an ideal choice for brands looking to elevate their eco-conscious offerings. Whether incorporated into elastic and non-elastic fabric tapes, apparel, accessories, or home textiles, Fancy Yarn seamlessly integrates into existing designs while reinforcing sustainability credentials. As brands worldwide intensify their commitments to circular economy models, Fancy Yarn offers a tangible, immediate solution.

Raising the bar for sustainable manufacturing

ECI Elastic has long been at the forefront of sustainable innovation. Beyond Fancy Yarn, the company continually explores ways to reduce carbon emissions and implement eco-friendly manufacturing processes. With 12 global facilities and a fully integrated production system, ECI ensures that sustainability isn’t an afterthought - it’s built into the DNA of every product.

The future of textiles is here

As the demand for sustainable solutions grows, brands have a choice: follow the trend or lead the way. ECI Elastic’s Fancy Yarn offers an opportunity to do the latter. By integrating this innovative material into product lines, brands can make a statement - not just about quality and design but about a genuine commitment to the planet.
