Head for the headwear The Beechfield Brands stand (E40) – displaying the Beechfield, BagBase, Quadra and Westford Mill brands – is always a crowd-pleaser. This year, it promises to inspire you with its most eco-conscious collection yet as the company explores new sustainable fabric innovations. Not only is it pledging to commit to introducing more recycled and organic products going forward, Beechfield Brands says it has also got its eye "firmly on the future of responsibly derived yarns". It adds: "The new Revive collection by Westford Mill exemplifies this ethos; created using a blend of preconsumer recycled cotton and postconsumer recycled polyester." While it reports that sustainable practices will always be at the forefront of the design process, the company says it also wants to give consumers "the very best of the latest trends, always pushing to stay ahead of the curve and drawing on what's happening in fashion and tech around the globe". Get the look with the Recycled Polyester Bucket Hat (B84R) from Beechfield or the lightweight Project Recycled Security Backpack (QD924) from Quadra in brand new colours for 2022, pebble and slate blue. From organic caps and recycled backpacks to colour-pop Boutique keyrings ready for on-trend monogramming from BagBase, Beechfield Brands promises to “have your fun, fresh and planet-friendly accessories covered”. A couple of stands across from Beechfield, you'll find Fruit of the Loom and Russell (C40). Fruit of the Loom celebrated its 170th anniversary last year and says it "uses the experience gained from this long tradition of high-quality textile production to continuously develop and improve". Fruit of the Loom classics, including the Iconic range, along with Premium ringspun T-shirts and 65/35 polos will be on display, along with the brand’s Classic sweats and jog pants.
