What You Should Know About Polyneon Green


Polyneon thread has been a trusted choice in the embroidery industry for years, and now it’s evolving into Polyneon Green. This is simply an upgrade to reflect a commitment to sustainability—with no change to the quality on which you've come to rely.

 Polyneon’s Shift to Recycled Materials


Polyneon Green is made from 100% recycled materials, but it’s still the same Polyneon thread. You’ll find it wound on a light green cone core, clearly labeled “Polyneon Green (recycled).”

Color & Shine: The colors, shine, and texture match Polyneon exactly. You can even mix Polyneon Green with Polyneon in the same design without any difference.


Rest assured, Polyneon Green is still the Polyneon you trust - now with the benefit of it being much more eco-friendly.

You won’t notice a difference,
but the earth will.
