A4 Goes Green with Recycled Polyester
A4, manufacturer of premium sportswear and team uniforms, is now making all its most popular apparel, and the vast majority of its line, with recycled polyester.
FULL STORYKeith Zasowski from Insane Apparel, Centereach, N.Y., recently lost his shop to a flood and his employees have started a Kickstarter campaign to help raise money. The damages, which were not covered under Zasowski’s insurance, total more than $200,000. His computer-to-screen (CTS) system and folder/bagger are beyond repair, and many items in the shop had to be thrown away due to sewer contamination.
Zasowski is back up and running with some basic equipment, but needs cash flow to help him survive. Anything will help and if the goal is reached, the industry will donate, too.
Donations can be made directly to Zasowski via PayPal at insaneapparel@yahloo.com. — L.M.
