New York – Alok will launch a sheet collection with multiple performance attributes next week.

The new Suta collection – named with the Hindi word yarn, filament or thread – is made from yarns that weave into a fabric the feeling of cotton. Alok’s R&D teams developed the innovative yarn using the manufacturer’s expertise in polymer-based yarns. Its teams tested Suta with user trials to ensure it had created a man-made fiber (MMF) that can compete directly with the hand feel of a natural cotton fiber.

Suta fiber is a naturally wrinkle resistant, anti-bacterial, zero shrink and quick dry yarn that boasts test standards superior to 100% cotton, the company said.

The product was designed to help manufacturers and retailers decrease risk and volatility driven by single source cotton.

Suta can be used as 100% fiber construction and can also be used in blends and with recycled yarns.

Alok’s permanent showroom in New York is located at 105 Madison Ave.
