Robust Safety Wear

Logo Robust

Robust Safety Wear is a brand label of Wijngaarden VeiligGoed. Robust Safety Wear articles are of absolute top quality and are distinguished by a combination of extremely high protection and high comfort.

Much of Robust Safety Wear's clothing uses "lyocell. Lyocell is an extremely durable material and is made from cellulose from wood chips.

Differences between lyocell and viscose

The raw materials of lyocell are exactly the same as viscose. With viscose, harmful and environmentally damaging chemicals are used, whereas lyocell production involves a so-called "closed loop. Only water and non-toxic solvents are used, which are, of course, reusable.

A great advantage of lyocell is its softness. The fabric is supple and pleasant to the skin. Lyocell also absorbs water better than cotton does.

Lifetime

Sustainability at Robust Safety Wear is also reflected in the life cycle of the products. This is because these work clothes last a very long time, at least 100 washes guaranteed! This reduces the need to purchase new workwear, which has a positive impact on the strain on resources.

Rewear package: a fully sustainable and circular clothing package

REWEAR is Tricorp's first circular (D1) clothing line. This line is based on some of the top items in the standard collection. The fabric is made of recycled polyester or a blend of recycled polyester and organic cotton.

The objective of REWEAR was to Reduce, Reuse & Rewear:

  • Reduce: reducing water use, energy and C02 emissions. AND reducing the use of new raw materials.
  • Reuse: making the item suitable for reuse after wearing.
  • Rewear: reusing materials in our workwear. For example, recycling a PET bottle into PET polyester.

RE2050 collection

With the RE2050 collection, Tricorp takes the next step towards 100% circular workwear: a complete, modern and sporty clothing package for the fashion-conscious wearer with strong materials for longer life. Think stretch for flexibility and comfort and lightweight materials for increased comfort. In addition to the fabric, many of the accessories are also made from recycled raw material. The design takes into account the possibility of recycling the clothing. The name RE2050 is a nod to the year 2050 when the Netherlands must be circular as an economy.

The design is characterized by its sporty lines and look and feel. Thus you will find in each article a reflective piping which provides a sporty and visible element. The famous Tricorp hooks are also subtly incorporated into the items to create an exclusive look. Tricorp's designers have reflected the sporty "feel" by using airy Mesh elements.

Recycled raw materials
The RE2050 collection is made with recycled polyester and recycled polyamide. The lining of the Winter Tech Shell is of Primaloft recycled polyester. Polygiene® finish has been applied to the fabric of the t-shirt and polo shirt so that the item can be worn more often before going in the wash. Characteristic of the RE2050 items is the addition of a stretch quality that makes the items very comfortable and sporty. The work pants even have a full 4-way stretch quality.
