BOKSER partners with IAM to introduce CiCLO® to hospitality textiles
BOKSER Textiles, a leading provider of hospitality textiles, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with Intrinsic Advanced Materials to introduce CiCLO® technology to the hospitality sector. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in the industry, aiming to combat microplastic pollution from synthetic fabrics through sustainable innovation.
The newly launched Shoreline Collection of Top Sheets is crafted from recycled polyester and infused with CiCLO® technology, a patented textile ingredient designed to accelerate the biodegradation of synthetic fibers. This advancement represents a major step toward sustainability, reducing the long-term impact of microplastic pollution caused by laundering and fabric wear in hotel environments.
Hotel textiles experience frequent use and washing, leading to the shedding of synthetic fibers, contributing to the growing microplastic pollution issue. Synthetic fiber shedding is the most common form of microplastic pollution found across the globe. By incorporating CiCLO® technology, fabrics like polyester and nylon retain their durability and performance while gaining the ability to biodegrade at rates similar to natural fibers like wool.
“Our mission at BOKSER is to be the most affordable supplier of sustainable hospitality textiles,” said Ed Guzek, President of BOKSER Textiles. “Partnering with Intrinsic to integrate CiCLO® technology into our products represents a major leap in environmental responsibility. This initiative allows us to support our customers while contributing to a healthier planet.”
Hector Torres, Global Sales Director, Home & Hospitality at Intrinsic Advanced Materials, echoed this enthusiasm: “We are excited to work with BOKSER in bringing CiCLO® technology to hotels across the country. This partnership not only offers guests high-quality, sustainable bedding but also advances the hospitality industry toward a more sustainable future.”
By adopting CiCLO® technology, BOKSER Textiles sets a new standard for eco-friendly hospitality linens, reinforcing its commitment to innovation and sustainability.
