Oricla Elástico is a fabric created from upcycling to reduce waste in the production of fitness clothing. The innovation is a partnership between Confecções T. Christina (one of the largest manufacturers in the sector generating 120 tonnes of synthetic waste per year) and the designer Agustina Comas, a specialist in industrial upcycling. The project allows 20% of this surplus to be reintroduced into the market, addressing key issues in the fashion industry. For this exhibition, Oricla Elástico has partnered with A.C.T., a new brand that aims to combine design, functionality and sustainability in a lifestyle proposal.
