CELLSIUS
Simply Suzette brought all of the partners involved in this project together. She knew that Triarchy had been grappling with the end-of-life dilemma and our desire to find a way to recycle jeans with ease. The prospect of dissolvable thread and a jean with truly no plastic components whatsoever garnered an instant yes from us. In addition, the Simply Suzette team also produced and directed the supplier launch video.
Triarchy is a family-owned and operated denim brand that is leading the way in responsible denim manufacturing. By embracing responsible manufacturing techniques over broad sustainability claims, the brand is able to share radical transparency through 3rd party auditors who expose the brand's practices as a low-water, toxic chemical and plastic-free fabrics pioneer in the denim industry.
Each garment that Triarchy makes comes with a unique QR code that acts as a digital passport to share all of the garment's individual responsibility metrics and blockchain-verified supply chain source map. Triarchy offsets the carbon and plants a tree for every pair of jeans sold. Changing the denim industry one pair of jeans at a time.

Coats is a world leader in thread manufacturing and structural components for apparel and footwear, as well as an innovative pioneer in performance materials.
The exclusive EcoCycle threads were provided by Coats. These threads offer the same performance as conventional threads used in jeans manufacturing, but at the end of the garments life cycle, having been sewn using Coats EcoCycle threads, can be dissolved at the end of the lifecycle by immersing the garment at 100°C for 20 minutes.
This allows the garment to be easily disassembled.

ABOUT CELLSIUS
CELLSIUS is the denim collection made in partnership with industry-leading supply chain partners to manufacture 100% recyclable jeans.
THE NEED OF THE HOUR
The speed at which consumers are wearing and discarding clothes is alarming. As manufacturers, we are responsible for taking corrective action to rectify this.
The need of the hour is longer-lasting clothes that stay premium through multiple home laundries but are also created with a circular mindset.
We wanted to create garments that addressed various issues simultaneously; they needed to be water-conscious, recyclable, and circular.
A LEAP TOWARDS CHANGE
In the world of fashion, companies are increasingly focusing on responsibility and making a positive impact within their domain. Individual efforts, however, can only go so far. Our collaboration exemplifies how working together can bring about significant change.

The collaboration embodies unified action, social responsibility, and an impassioned quest for supply solutions that resonate with our values. Each partner delivers their finest to unveil the potential of CELLSIUS, and we are thrilled to champion this venture.
As we navigate these challenging times, it is crucial for us as fashion entrepreneurs and global leaders to reassess our approach to business. We are deeply thankful that our partners embrace our vision of denim's future and are equally dedicated to making a positive difference in the world.
