GOTS ORGANIC COTTON

Used both since ancient times, cotton is probably the most common fabric in the world, but to be considered sustainable it must necessarily come from organic farming. Our Autumn Winter 22.23 Collection also includes organic cotton with Gots certification, which therefore guarantees the biological origin of the textile fibers and their traceability along the ecosustainable production chain.

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the highest standard in the world for organic fibers; in addition to verifying compliance with the organic production requirements of the entire textile supply chain, it also considers that environmental and social responsibility requirements are met along the entire production chain.

BIOLOGICAL RESINS AND NATURAL DYES

Natural dyes, biological resins, for an eco sustainable product from A to Z.
These are the ingredients of the Sustainability Package created by Pontex for the Fall Winter 22.23 Collection: after a long period of study by our Pontex Research and Development team, we have created a sustainable novelty: organic resins with a color palette intended for natural dyeing of fabric, for the creation of jackets and pants for a sportswear style.

The resin-coated fabrics, which are part of our production, have versatile characteristics of great utility: they are subjected to the resin treatment but still maintain lightness and texture, they can be washed either with a sponge or by immersion, and are ironable.
The dyeing of these resins is completely natural, of vegetable origin, made through eco-compatible processes: this means not using chemicals: no toxicity, therefore, and no allergic reactions on the skin.

SUPIMA COTTON

Supima cotton, also known as “luxury cotton”, is a cotton with a long fiber (which exceeds 29 mm) and very resistant, as well as thin. It is one of the finest and most precious cottons in the world, recognized for its extraordinary softness and shine, which makes it better with each wash without losing its shape and resisting tears and breaks.
Our Collection also includes Supima Cotton to make comfortable sportswear-style trousers.
Supima cotton to make comfortable but elegant trousers: a bright cotton whose handfeel improves with each wash.

Tie-dyed velvet: the art of imperfection

Discover the unique beauty of hand-dyed velvets, where every hue tells a story  Velvet is a fabric very appreciated by fashion, for many reasons: it creates fluid and elegant lines, is available in a wide range of finishing types, from smooth velvet to corduroy, offers many creative possibilities. Furthermore, this fabric is well suited to particular dyes and finishing, as in the case of the so called “tie-dyed” effect.  What is the meaning of tie-dyed in fabrics for clothing?  Tie-dyed means that a fabric for clothing, velvet in this case, was dyed in an uneven way; therefore, it presents a not homogeneous, irregular colour, with striping that confers character and identity. The uneven effect is wanted and sought after.  Why tie-dyed velvet?  With tie-dyed velvet it is possible to create pieces of clothing with a contemporary allure, with a daily and relaxed style. Fluid trousers and shirts with an elegant and shiny touch, versatile jackets and soft embracing coats, with lines that develop themselves comfortable along the silhouette.  Tie-dyed velvets by Pontex  We have created a capsule of precious velvets for clothing with tie-dyed effect, ready to tailor the desired piece of clothing. Our velvets are suitable for garment dyeing process too, that is when the piece of clothing is dyed after tailoring instead of before the realisation of the piece itself. In this case, the piece of clothing acquires a really unique effect because dye distributes in a slightly different way on each piece. Furthermore, garment dyeing allows to dye pieces of clothing made of different materials and fibres in only one passage. For the dyeing process, we rely on the best experts in Northern Italy, specialised in piece and garment dyeing fabrics for clothing by using the most innovative techniques now available. We synergistically work side by side with them in order to realise a product that is unique and customised.  The dyeing process to obtain the tie-dyed effect is hand-made, in a fully artisanal way, through the so-called “spraying”. Upon request, dyeing can be made with natural colours, at a cold temperature, using pigments and resins to dye at relatively low temperatures, with considerable energy saving and reducing impact on environment.  It is important to underline that these particular dyes, as well as finishing, coating and resin-treatments are resistant over time only when realised on top-quality fabrics.  Why rely on Pontex?  Because we are craftsmen in fabric: we dedicate ourselves to the creation of unique and precious, high-quality fabrics for clothing, with a high aesthetical and functional value. Like craftsmen, we perform our work with passion and commitment, investing time and energy in the realisation of each fabric that is customised basing on your requests. We follow you in all production steps, from the choice of the fabric for which we provide stock service, to the best dyeing and finishing process, in a timely manner and making our know-how available for you, following strict checks to test its utmost quality and resistance. Our style office, that is the creative heart of Pontex, constantly monitors fashion trends and develops trendy mood-board and concept choosing the best yarns, the best structured textures, the best finishing and processes to create unique fabrics for clothing. This is the case of tie-dyed velvets, the last newness from Pontex for a “tailor-made fashion”, open to experimentation and changes.  The new Fall/Winter 25/26 Collection by Pontex is focused on velvets, but also on resin-treated, coupled, Made in Italy fabrics, on viscose, silks and gauzes, on cotton and cotton elastomer, on cottons with structured texture and tencel.

Velvet: the best fabric for clothing for Fall/Winter fashion

Trend: velvet is a cyclical fabric, that regularly returns to be a trend, always able to surprise with new shades and applications. Within its strategy of sustainability, Pontex guarantees the utmost transparency through the full traceability of the product concerning yarns, dyes and colourants, processes and finishing. How to wear velvet today Total look: choose a velvet suit for a sophisticated and embracing effect, maybe combined with a pair of shiny décolleté. A touch of velvet: if you prefer a more discrete look, insert velvet with accessories like bags, shoes or belts. Play with colours: velvet is not only black or burgundy, try brighter colours and nice patterns for an original touch. Inspiration from catwalks Fashion has proved, with the last Collections, how velvet can be interpreted in one thousand different ways. From midi skirts to suits, passing to blazers and trousers, velvet is the undisputed protagonist of every cold season. ph. and Collection Cruna Collection of velvets by Pontex Pontex is specialised in the creation of velvet for clothing: in particular, for the Fall/Winter 25/26 Collection, we propose a wide range of velvets with warm and super soft hands in viscose, silk, modal, tencel and cotton, smooth and corduroy, customisable.
