02 September 2024

CM Garmindo, Bali’s top-tier Fair Trade clothing manufacturer, is proud to announce the launch of its first activewear catalogue. This new addition marks the company’s reentry into the activewear market, showcasing a diverse range of high-quality, stylish, and functional athletic clothing, designed to meet the needs of both startup and established activewear brands.

The Solutions to Activewear Brands’ Sustainability and Quality Concerns: Choose CM Garmindo’s Activewear Catalogue

Quality and Comfort: Each piece is made from high-performance fabrics that provide exceptional comfort and support. Fabrics are chosen for their softness, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, ensuring that wearers stay comfortable and dry during any activity.

Durability and Longevity: Advanced stitching techniques are employed to enhance the durability and longevity of the clothing. The reinforced seams and high-quality threads used in all productions ensures garments withstand the rigours of intense workouts and frequent wear, making them a reliable choice for active lifestyles.

Eco-Conscious Production: As the activewear industry embraces sustainability, CM Garmindo is committed to utilising eco-friendly fabrics and production methods that minimise environmental impact throughout its manufacturing process; whereas the fabrics and components are sourced from sustainable suppliers.

Low Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs): Fast fashion often leads to overproduction and excessive waste. CM Garmindo addresses this issue by offering low MOQs, allowing brands to produce smaller, more manageable batches of activewear. This approach reduces excess inventory and waste, supporting sustainable production practices and enabling brands to respond more flexibly to market demands.

Brands producing activewear with CM Garmindo can select from a variety of sustainable, high-quality fabrics and obtain superb quality digital printing. This choice ensures that garments adhere to both performance and environmental standards, enabling responsible and stylish options. Available selections include:

Fabrics:

  1. REPREVE®: Made from recycled plastic bottles, Repreve is a high-performance fabric that reduces waste and conserves natural resources. It is known for its durability, moisture-wicking properties, and comfort.
  2. ECONYL® Regenerated Yarn: Econyl is made from recycled nylon waste. It offers the same quality and performance as virgin nylon but with a significantly lower environmental impact.
  3. Global Recycled Standard (GRS): GRS-certified fabrics contain recycled content and comply with stringent social, environmental, and chemical criteria. This certification ensures transparency and sustainability throughout the production process.
  4. Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS): GOTS-certified fabrics are made from organic fibres and meet high environmental and social criteria. This standard ensures that the fabrics are produced sustainably, from raw material harvesting to manufacturing.
  5. Better Cotton Initiative (BCI): BCI promotes better standards in cotton farming, ensuring that the cotton used is produced sustainably and ethically. BCI cotton reduces the environmental impact of cotton production and improves livelihoods.
