Old Textiles are Resources, Not Waste.

Updated: May 21, 2019


Today’s linear “take, make, dispose” economic model is reaching its limits, and natural resources are becoming increasingly scarce, threatening the growth of the #fashionindustry. Only less than 1% of material used to produce clothing is recycled into new clothing.


The public is becoming increasingly aware of the #environmental impacts of the #fashion. Consumers expect the industry to address issues related to production, such as extensive water usage, toxic chemicals and garments accumulating in #landfills.


Hand-loom and Knitted Recycle fabric collection is inspired by Steve Labonte’s words; “Recycling is a concern both human and divine” in collaboration with #GRS certified #recycledyarn manufacturer in India, toward our commitments for #TextileRecycling2020 #CircularFashionSystem.


  1. Soft, mellifluous, pleasant 100% Cotton Fabric is composed of 30% recycled #GRS certified cotton yarn and 70% #organic cotton made by our traditional #hand-loom weaving artisans in #Uttarakhand for #Apparel and #Upholstery collections


#Lifecycleassessment commissioned by H&M shows that using #recycled, instead of #virgincotton, fiber #reduces climate and water impacts by 80-90% in the stages that make fiber ready for #spinning.


2. Keeping up the promise of being ###ethical and #sustainable this 100 % Recycle Polyester Cotton Fabric is hand-woven using GRS certified 60%polyester and 40%cotton yarn. Recycle polyester yarn is made from used PET bottle and cotton yarn form garment waste.




3. Lustrous super soft Cotton Silk fabric collection is distinctive by a steady balance of 30% silk and 70% cotton fusion resulting 21 % recycle yarn. This soothing fabric is threaded methodically and deliberately by the expert hands of our weavers and artisans.




“It is essential that we take action on circularity today, even

though we don’t yet have all the solutions for creating a circular

fashion system. It’s only through testing and trying that we will

find them.” - MORTEN LEHMANN
