Deep by Ripa is a unique line, which is said to offer a broad choice for the user. Its colours do not present white or grey nuances caused by the untinted elastomer, a phenomenon which commonly occurs with polyamides, viscose, wool, cotton and silk, companies report.
The new line uses special yarns from ROICA Colour Perfect family, which premiered for the first time at Interfilière Paris in July 2015. These are premium yarns, not only by virtue of their elasticity, but also because of their particular characteristic, which is said to enable them to be dyed in combination with all above mentioned fibres.
Deep by Ripa becomes SMART thanks to the innovative technology OneTone by Erca. Specifically aimed at optimizing the process of dyeing and finishing of ROICA Colour Perfect' fabrics, in combination with cellulosic fibres, it is said to offer great depth of colour and excellent colour-fastness. Erca is also attested bluesign along with the auxiliaries it employs for the OneTone process on the fabrics realized with premium stretch threads by ROICA Colour Perfect.
Maglificio Ripa brand represents a guarantee in terms of fabric research and development and in terms of style, through continuous monitoring of new trends and market requirements, the company reports.
The first stop in the presentation of the new line will be the Parisian Interfilière trade show that takes place from 23-25 January. The show is dedicated to textiles and accessories for the underwear and beachwear industry. Wacoal Group’s Huit brand will introduce a range of underwear garments produced with this innovative fabric.
Right after the Parisian salon, Deep by Ripa will head to Munich Fabric Start that will be held from 2-4 February, and then straight back to Paris to meet the fashion world at Premier Vision from 16-18 February.
The new Deep by Ripa line uses ROICA Colour Perfect yarns to improve the colour performance in those fabrics containing different fibres and percentages of elastomer. It has been developed to answer the most specific demands of the market.
In polyamide fibres, suitable for underwear and beachwear as well as apparel and loungewear, colours are more vivid, without the gloss caused by insufficient absorbency by the elastomer. In natural fibres, suitable for underwear, loungewear and apparel, the greyish hue, which makes the fabric appear less homogeneous, disappears.
In blends of polyamide and natural fibres, suitable for underwear, sportswear and outerwear, these tissues combine performance and a natural, soft touch. In high-elastomer blends (for the first time, up to 40%), suitable for shapewear and beachwear items, colours will look noticeably deeper and more intense, manufacturers report.
