Halley Stevenson's, our local textiles manufacturer keeps an eye towards a circular future through their exciting collaborations.  The Collection of Tomorrow explores the possibilities that lie in innovative technology and how it can take us closer to a fully circular consumption of textiles. In 2019 the collaboration between the Finnish sustainable material innovation Spinnova, and the traditional Norwegian manufacturer of outdoor equipment, Bergans, was presented in Oslo, in the form of a backpack. Spinnova joined the H&M group as collaboration partners. The group’s ambition is to become fully circular, and continuously test and actively integrate the use of sustainable materials through their group’s brands.

Development continued and in 2020 Halley Stevensons joined the collaborative partnership to help produce the second product; a Scandinavian workers shirt.

“We have also incorporated the innovative British company Halley Stevensons to the project, which is world leader when it comes to fabric finishing. Their entry has enabled us to launch a product with a far better touch and feel than we did one year ago. We are very grateful and pleased to be working with Halley Stevensons, they have shared their vast knowledge and taught us a lot-” Spinnova’s Chief Commercial Officer, Lotta Kopra.
