Li Ning applies coffee carbon fiber technology to create the most environmentally friendly sportswear to turn waste into treasure.

Science and technology lead the future and decorate life with green. Things that seem impossible can become possible in the eyes of those who are willing to do so. When people are constantly pursuing the function of exercise, is there a technology that does not bring pressure to the environment, but also makes you want to achieve moisture absorption and perspiration, anti-UV, deodorization and other functions? the answer is nothing is impossible!

As a leading sports brand in China, Li Ning not only caters to the needs of consumers for sports functions and creates the most functional and sporty innovative products, but also takes the lead in the use of environmental protection technology. the use of the latest fabric technology-coffee carbon fiber to produce high-quality sportswear products, set an example in the use of green raw materials.

Coffee carbon that you don't know.

There are too many things in life that we ignore and throw away easily. when you enjoy the mellow enjoyment of coffee, do you think that those coffee residues will bring burden to the environment because they are discarded at will? It is understood that the annual coffee consumption in China is about 30-35000 tons, and in 2012, China's coffee consumption increased by 10% compared with the same period last year. Based on the annual consumption of more than 30,000 tons of coffee, the coffee grounds produced are considerable. Bamboo charcoal fiber and coconut carbon fiber have come into our lives, so can these coffee grounds also turn waste into treasure, reduce the burden on our environment, and produce a large number of high-quality raw materials at the same time? If so, the coffee in our hands must feel more mellow and delicious. The answer is yes. Coffee carbon fiber has been developed and applied.

"born beautiful" coffee carbon fiber

First of all, coffee carbon fiber has its own unique advantages. the porous structure of coffee carbon fiber has high adsorption, which can destroy the moist environment of bacteria. Tannin in coffee carbon can coagulate the protoplasm of microorganisms and act on a variety of enzymes, which has obvious inhibitory effect on a variety of bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and so on. After carbonization, coffee grounds become a special porous structure, which has the natural effect of far-infrared, heat storage and warmth without adding any chemical additives. Therefore, the "natural beauty" coffee carbon fiber already has a certain bacteriostatic function without post-treatment and auxiliaries, and the fabric made of coffee carbon fiber also has natural functions such as quick drying, deodorization, bacteriostasis, anti-ultraviolet and far-infrared. It is precisely because of these characteristics that coffee carbon itself does not require post-treatment, reduces the use of auxiliaries, and has a long-lasting effect. It is obvious that its products will bring higher security to users.

Secondly, the processing process of recycled coffee grounds is also more energy-saving. Coffee carbon is carbonized at low temperature and processed at 680 ℃, while bamboo charcoal and coconut charcoal are processed at 950 ℃ and 1200 ℃ respectively, so the production of coffee carbon can greatly reduce water and electricity consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. Coffee carbon yarn manufacturing process, adhering to the principle of complete environmental protection, without high-temperature carbonization, will not produce a large amount of carbon dioxide.

Green environmental protection Li Ning comes first

It is adhering to the commitment to society and the commitment to green that Li Ning cooperates with suppliers to develop coffee carbon fiber, which is also the first brand in China to jointly develop and use coffee carbon with material suppliers. On the road of green environmental protection, Li Ning set an example.

At present, Li Ning's coffee carbon fiber products have been developed to the third generation, and its upgraded functions include moisture absorption and perspiration, anti-ultraviolet and deodorization, which can meet the diversified needs on the advantages of the original materials.

In China, among many brands, Li Ning takes the lead in introducing coffee carbon fiber with many advantages in environmental protection and performance into the company's products, which is one of the powerful measures that Li Ning attaches great importance to the coordination and balance between company growth and environmental protection. Li Ning Company is committed to reducing the load on the ecological environment in the production process as much as possible through the development and use of new environmentally friendly materials, and assumes the responsibility of being a brand company in the process of building a sustainable supply chain.

Go out in coffee carbon.

While exercise has become necessary for people's quality of life, environmental protection and green has been gradually recognized as a healthy way of life. When choosing clothing products, more people will consider whether the products are environmentally friendly or not. The recycling of coffee carbon is becoming a great blessing for the clothing industry. The development and utilization of coffee carbon in Li Ning's clothing products has come into people's daily life. It is reported that more than 40% of Li Ning's clothing products in basketball and comprehensive training categories in 2013 have adopted coffee carbon technology. In the future, this star technology will be used in more clothing products. Let's go out with coffee carbon on.
