Eco-Conscious Fabric Development
Eco-friendly fabrics that make you feel good in mind, body, and spirit. Glyder has undertaken an aggressive stance to use sustainable materials in our products, and we have developed 100% sustainable fabrics and continue to widen our array styles made in our two key sustainable and earth friendly fabrics.
REPREVE© regenerated nylon is made from recovering nylon waste - such as fishing nets from aquaculture and the oceans, fabric scraps from mills, and carpets destined for landfills - and turning it into virgin quality nylon yarn.
ECOSOF is a Glyder original, and is a recycled polyester and organic cotton blend that has the perfect weight and drape of classic cotton with a much more luxuriously soft feel!
Mindfully Made: Rayon Woven Throughout Our Line
Glyder incorporates our eco-conscious rayon blends in many key fabrics and pieces, using this fiber for its breathability, softness, and lighter impact on the planet. Rayon is made from renewable wood pulp, offering the comfort you love with a more earth-conscious footprint than traditional synthetics.
Distribution Center
The first necessary step we took was to eliminate waste within our warehouse.
We removed all unnecessary paper materials in our packages and converted all of our remaining packing materials and product hardware to 100% recycled or 100% recyclable materials, including:
- Garment poly bags
