Südwolle collections are designed to express this new awareness, while supporting the changes taking place around the world, with a mindful style and materials to suit new lifestyles, the company said in a press release.

The collection includes OTW, Espresso TEX Nm 48/2, Rhein GOTSNm 64/1 and Nm 64/2, SRP ClarkNm 60/2, Rosvic Nm 40/2. The OTW line of weaving yarns made with Omega Twist technology, developed and patented by Südwolle Group, gives yarns enhanced performances in terms of reduced pilling, greater elasticity, strength and durability.

Espresso TEX Nm 48/2 (100 per cent untreated wool,20.5μ) was created to value the authentic naturalness of wool. Made with undyed, untreated merino wool, it is a twisted yarn for weaving, ideal, for example, for flannel suits and jackets. It is available in 4 shades of brown obtained by mixing different percentages of untreated raw wool and undyed, naturally brown wool.

Eolo Nm 24/2 (100 per cent wool 20.5 µ) is an example of circular production and reuse of recycled wool within the Karma project. Starting with in-house pre-and post-production waste, a partly carded, partly combed, product is created at Südwolle Group facilities where this type of process can be carried out.

Rhein GOTSNm 64/1 and Nm 64/2 (100 per cent wool 19.5 µ) is the new pure woolyarn with GOTS –Global Organic Textile Standard certification, which certifies its organic provenance. Performance paired with reduced energy consumption is the added value of SRP ClarkNm 60/2 (48 per cent wool 23.5μ, 44 per cent cationic polyester, 8 per cent Donegal viscose), also available in a stretch version. The cationic polyester can be dyed blended with the wool, making double dying unnecessary and so saving on water and energy consumption. The addition of pre-dyed red, green or brown Donegal viscose to the blend creates a fluid look enhanced with slubbing and micro-nep effect.

Rosvic Nm 40/2 (98 per cent wool 19.5μ, 2 per cent Lycra44 dtex) is a twisted yarn with Basolan treatment for comfort fabrics. It has a slightly textured surface with a contrasting or tone on tone micro mouliné pattern.
