Discover the next generation of circular coated fabrics at ISPO 2026
Rivertex will preview its new Rivercyclon® Outdoor, Luggage & Sports collection at ISPO 2026.
Visit us at booth 4B22 and be among the first to discover how circular design, lower CO₂ impact and high-performance functionality can come together in one commercially viable fabric platform.
Following the development of the Rivercyclon® circular fabric concept, Rivertex is now taking the next step: bringing the technology to demanding outdoor, luggage and sports applications.
At
ISPO 2026, visitors will get an exclusive preview of the new
Rivercyclon® Outdoor, Luggage & Sports fabrics and the opportunity to see, feel and discuss the materials with the Rivertex team.
50% lower CO₂ impact
One of the most significant advantages of Rivercyclon® is its substantially lower environmental footprint. The new fabrics can
reduce material CO₂ impact by approximately 50% compared with conventional coated fabrics, while still delivering the strength, durability and waterproof performance required for demanding applications.
But reducing carbon impact is only part of the story.
Rivercyclon® has been developed around a
mono-material architecture using 100% compatible materials, making the coated fabric mechanically recyclable and designed to remain within the material cycle.
The range also brings together several additional advantages for brands, designers and manufacturers:
- Circular by design – a fully recyclable mono-material construction designed for mechanical recycling.
- PFAS-free Inherent water repellency – selected lightweight Outdoor & Luggage fabrics offer durable water repellency engineered directly into the material.
- Solution dyed – colour is incorporated before the yarn is spun, drastically reducing water use while providing durable and consistent colour.
- Lightweight and strong – the low density and excellent strength-to-weight ratio of polypropylene enable efficient lightweight product design.
- Easy to process – sew or weld using familiar production methods, without the need to fundamentally change existing manufacturing processes.
- Commercially competitive – developed not only to reduce environmental impact, but also to provide a realistic, scalable alternative for the market.
Come and experience Rivercyclon® at ISPO
The new Outdoor, Luggage & Sports range is still under development, making ISPO an ideal opportunity to get an early look at where Rivercyclon® is heading.
Whether you develop
backpacks, bags, luggage, outdoor equipment, sports products or other performance textile applications, we invite you to visit us, explore the materials and discuss what Rivercyclon® could mean for your next product.
