ROICA™ by Asahi Kasei is the premium stretch fiber that makes beachwear stylish and performing more than ever.
In this specific sector ROICA Eco-Smart™ family is also playing a role in enhancing designs made for pleasure, performance and responsibility at the same time, valuable elements for swimwear, pool and beach wardrobe.
ROICA™ EF, the recycled yarn made from pre-consumer materials OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, and ROICA™ V550, the sustainable yarn that partially degrades under ISO 14855-1 tested by OWS, decomposing into CO2 and water and the world-first Cradle to Cradle-Certified™ stretch yarn with a Material Health Gold Level Certificate, are a good answer to the need of comfort and style with a conscious stretch performance.
ROICA™ confirms its presence in this segment thanks to its established network of key partners that include premium and renown companies such as Brugnoli, Iluna Group, Innova Fabrics, Maglificio Ripa, Penn Textile Solutions – Penn Italia and Tessitura Colombo.
Some of them will also be exhibiting at Mare di Moda in Cannes next 5-7 November and here’s the list with booths as guide to visit them at the fair: Brugnoli (24), Iluna Group (34), Penn Textile Solutions – Penn Italia (32), Maglificio Ripa (35) and Innova Fabrics (91).
So, let’s pretend it is already summer and immerse ourselves in the beachwear proposals born from the creativity and experience of ROICA™ exceptional partners.
Brugnoli

Cifra
WKS seamless beachwear developed by Cifra fits over the body like a second skin providing not just an outstanding look, but comfort as well. CIFRA’s beachwear is made of a highly elastic fabrication where ROICA™ EF and Qnova® smoothly stretch over the body without digging in.
WKS beachwear items are that very versatile as they can be worn not only on the beach, but also in other summertime occasions such as pool parties, maybe matched with stylish long skirts, for a relaxed but posh outfit.
Thanks to the knitting technique and to the high resistance yarns used, Cifra WKS beachwear rarely ever frays and lasts for years. WKS seamless beachwear can stretch according to the body and shrink back to its original shape as well.
