We’re excited to announce that Kingly’s Twin Knit T-shirt has been shortlisted yet again by the British Promotional Merchandise Association (BPMA) for a Product Award 2024—this time in the “Sustainable Product of the Year” category, following our recent shortlisting in “Apparel Product of the Year“. This dual recognition highlights the Twin Knit T-shirt’s unique fusion of sustainability, quality, and performance, setting a new standard in eco-conscious apparel.
What Sets the Twin Knit T-Shirt Apart?
The Twin Knit T-shirt is the embodiment of Kingly’s commitment to eco-friendly innovation, crafted to meet the highest standards in sustainability, comfort, and durability. Composed of 55% GOTS-certified organic cotton on the inside and 40% GRS-certified recycled polyester on the outside, with 5% elastane for stretch, every aspect of this T-shirt is designed with the planet in mind.
This T-shirt is all about mindful materials. The GOTS-certified organic cotton used in the Twin Knit T-shirt is cultivated without harmful pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, or GMOs, promoting healthier soils and a safer environment. Meanwhile, the GRS-certified recycled polyester dramatically reduces resource usage, lowering energy and water consumption and helping keep plastic waste out of our ecosystems.
Lasting Quality and Versatility
Not only is the Twin Knit T-shirt sustainable—it’s built to last. Ideal for vibrant sublimation printing, it keeps custom designs sharp and enduring, wash after wash. This blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester offers a soft, resilient feel, making it the ideal choice for sports teams, businesses, and individuals who prioritize eco-conscious durability. With its soft, breathable, and lightweight structure, the Twin Knit T-shirt is crafted for all-day comfort. The organic cotton layer feels gentle against the skin, while the recycled polyester outer layer enhances durability and keeps it wrinkle-free. 5% elastane provides just the right amount of stretch, ensuring a comfortable, adaptable fit for every occasion.
Ethical Production and Full Transparency
The Twin Knit T-shirt is ethically produced in Europe, adhering to the strictest social and environmental standards to ensure fair working conditions and a minimal footprint. Our Cradle-to-Gate sustainability platform allows customers to track every step of the T-shirt’s journey, from sourcing to delivery, providing full transparency on its eco-friendly impact.
Why This Recognition Matters
Being shortlisted for “Sustainable Product of the Year“ and “Apparel Product of the Year” at BPMA’s Product Awards 2024 emphasizes Kingly’s dedication to transforming the apparel industry. We’re not just meeting the highest standards in sustainable apparel—we’re setting them, demonstrating that products can prioritize both the planet and the people who wear them. This acknowledgment from the BPMA validates our vision of a future where every aspect of fashion—quality, style, and environmental stewardship—works harmoniously for a better planet.
Kingly has been consistently recognized for its innovation and commitment to sustainability. Recently, we were awarded the BizX 2024 Award as “Green Company of the Year”, underscoring our dedication to sustainable practices.
