ORGANIC COTTON
50% of the world's clothing is made of cotton. The cotton plant is a shrub that belongs to the mallow family. The main cultivation of cotton is in India, China and the USA. Conventional cotton is mainly grown from genetically modified or chemically treated seeds. This is more resistant to pests and produces higher yields. In organic cotton, the use of genetically modified seeds is prohibited. The use of pesticides and artificial fertilisers must also be avoided. Instead, compost and manure or beneficial insects are used, which fight the pests in a natural way. These measures and requirements mean that the cultivated area (monoculture) is less contaminated and less depleted.
RECYCLED LACE
Our lace is an environmentally friendly and sustainable fibre as it is based on waste nylon materials. The mechanical and innovative regeneration process, which melts down the waste material, regenerates it and returns it to polymer form, requires less water and emissions. In addition, our lace carries the GRS (Global Recycling Standard) seal.
MODAL
Modal is a synthetically obtained natural fibre made from 100 % natural cellulose from beech wood from Central Europe. For the production, the wood is debarked, split into small chips, processed and finally spun together into a fibre material in a machine spinning process via nozzles. Modal is particularly hard-wearing, very easy to wash due to its alkali resistance and therefore easy to care for.
CUPRO
Cupro is a regenerated cellulose fabric. However, cupro is not made from new raw materials, but from leftovers from the cotton industry. From the "waste" there, a pleasant fabric is created that is biodegradable. The fabric has a silky soft feel and is smooth and shiny. Cupro is also called the vegan silk. The fabric is breathable, easy to care for and does not build up static electricity.
ECONYL®
The ECONYL® regeneration system starts by salvaging waste such as fishing nets, fabric scraps, carpeting and industrial plastics from around the world. This waste is then sorted and cleaned to recover all the nylon. Through an extensive regeneration and purification process, the nylon waste is returned to its original purity. The regenerated nylon ECONYL® is processed into carpet yarn and textile yarn for the fashion industry and interior manufacturers.
