HONG KONG – January 28, 2026 – Sungil Tex, Asia’s leading sustainable lining company and a designated official supplier for many of the world’s top fashion houses, today announced the launch of the world’s first fully biodegradable lining. Developed in collaboration with Lenzing, the new sustainable lining collection utilizes 100% biodegradable ECOVERO™ fiber, marking a major milestone in eco-friendly textile innovation.
World’s First Biodegradable Lining Collection
This breakthrough collection includes products GL-5019, GL-5018, GL-5045, and GL-5230, all crafted from 100% ECOVERO™ fiber. These biodegradable linings deliver the same luxurious hand feel and high performance as conventional materials while being fully biodegradable at end of life – addressing the fashion industry’s urgent need for sustainable, circular solutions.
Sungil Tex also carries a comprehensive range of color-stocked fabric and lining products made from 100% TENCEL™, another premium biodegradable fiber known for its exceptional softness and environmental credentials.
No MOQ: Sustainable Linings for Brands of All Sizes
To support designers and brands without limiting their creative freedom, Sungil Tex maintains extensive color stock of its sustainable and biodegradable linings and offers a landmark No Minimum Order Quantity (No MOQ) service. This innovative approach enables both large global brands and small emerging designers to access premium sustainable materials on-demand, reducing waste and eliminating the financial barriers of large inventory commitments.
“Sustainability should not be a privilege reserved for large corporations,” said Danny Lee, CEO of Sungil Tex. “Our No MOQ policy ensures that every brand – whether a global fashion house or an independent designer – can make responsible choices without compromise.”
Certified Sustainable Excellence
Sungil Tex’s commitment to sustainability is backed by comprehensive certifications from leading global standards organizations. The company holds Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certification (License CU 1022128), OEKOTEX certification across all products, and is a registered member of the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) (ID: 1009257) and the U.S. Cotton Trust Protocol (ID: A7QT7JGD). The biodegradability of its Lenzing-based products has been verified by TÜV Austria and tested by Organic Waste Systems (OWS).
Co-Developing the Future with HUGO BOSS
Further cementing its leadership in sustainable material innovation, Sungil Tex announced that beginning this year, it is partnering with global fashion powerhouse HUGO BOSS to develop advanced lining solutions using NOVA POLY™, HUGO BOSS’s proprietary biodegradable polyester technology. Leveraging HUGO BOSS’s innovative material platform and Sungil Tex’s expertise in lining development, this strategic collaboration represents a significant step toward making biodegradable materials the industry standard.
