PrimaLoft's Gold Insulation Eco, which features 55 percent post-consumer recycled content, will soon be available industry-wide. The technology, which was launched in July last year at the OutDoor Show in Friedrichshafen, had initially been made available in Patagonia's Nano Puff line only. Starting with the autumn 2017 season, it will become available to brands industry-wide. The initiative is part of Primaloft's five-year sustainability goal of having 90 percent of its products contain at least 35 percent post-consumer recycled materials, while meeting the same performance requirements.
