Wakefield – MCL News & Media has launched its new updated smartphone news app for both Apple and Android devices, to bring the latest industry news on sustainability and innovation to you 24/7 and wherever you are in the world.

After months of development, the new, free to download, intuitive, and easy-to-use news app not only includes the latest news from Sustainable Nonwovens, but also its sister publications Ecotextile News, Textile Evolution and Knitting Trade Journal. With a clean look and design, users can choose from tens of thousands of breaking and archived news stories from our four websites, search for specific news via keywords and share content via messaging services or social media.

There’s lots of free content, although our premium content – including the digital back issue archive – is reserved for subscribers. An added bonus is that if you subscribe to just one of our publications, you get access to all four on the new app to give you a broad, holistic view of what's happening in the global textile industry today.

If you’re already signed up to this website, simply go to the relevant iOS or Android app store on your mobile device, search in the store for ‘MCL News & Media’ (not Sustainable Nonwovens), download the new app, and then log in with your unique username and password for this website. You will be able to read and search for news and features based on your subscription or membership package.

Other interactive features of the new app to look out for include an option to see what stories are trending online, bookmarks to save news for offline reading, long-format features, and a separate channel for all our podcasts.

With the importance of breaking news placed sharply in focus this year in particular, the new MCL News app will keep you bang up to date with our industry wherever you are in the world.
