The technology creates biodegradable \u2018spots\u2019 in the polymer matrix, where naturally-occurring microbes in certain environments can break down the plastics just as they do with natural fibres.<\/p>\n<p>The launch of Coats Eco-B is part of the Coats Eco Journey roadmap to produce innovative sustainable products, which support Coats\u2019 drive towards a circular economy. The journey started with\u00a0<a href=\"\/en-us\/solutions\/coats-ecoverde\/\">Coats EcoVerde<\/a>\u00a0in 2018, which is now one of the most comprehensive ranges of 100% recycled polyester threads, zips and trims on the market, and continued with <a href=\"\/en-us\/products\/threads\/ecocycle\/ecocycle\/\">Coats EcoCycle<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; one of the first water dissolvable threads of its kind.<\/p>\n<p>Coats has developed three variations of Coats Eco-B, as Epic Eco-B, Gramax Eco-B and Sylko Eco-B offering.<\/p>\n<p>Sonya Manolova, Product Director, Apparel and Footwear, Coats, said: \u2018Coats Eco-B is a recycled thread that has all the durability of virgin materials, but doesn\u2019t stay around to pollute our oceans and increase landfill. This solution brings us one step closer to reducing the problem of plastic pollution by allowing synthetic plastic fibres to behave more like natural fibres.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Coats Eco-B has no compromises on durability with fatigue tests proving that traits such as tenacity, elongation, and abrasion resistance are at the same levels as virgin materials and ensure enhanced performance.<\/p>\n<p>For further information please visit the\u00a0<a href=\"\/en-us\/products\/threads\/coats-eco-b\/coats-eco-b\/\">Coats Eco-B<\/a>\u00a0web
