HOW WE WORK FOR SUSTAINABILITY
NATURAL TEXTILE FIBERS
We produce by limiting blends of natural and synthetic fibers to a minimum, which would hinder the future possibility of recycling the material.
We are experimenting with new environmentally sustainable fibers such as TENCEL™ (or Lyocell). The use of completely non-toxic solvents distinguishes it from viscose fiber, and makes Lyocell completely recyclable. It is 100% biodegradable.
The possible presence of small percentages of synthetic materials is limited to very few products and is to be considered a necessary part of making the product stronger and more durable and consequently more sustainable.
KM 0
We collaborate with artisans located in the Lake Como District. This allows us to limit the environmental impact of transportation.
We follow the entire production chain step by step, establishing a human relationship with those working on each product.
Our production philosophy follows the idea of making the right quantities of products while avoiding waste of energy and materials.
SUPPLIERS
We work only with Italian certified companies that renew all international certificates every year.
GOTS guarantees that the textile fibers have been organically grown.
GRS ensures the use of recycled materials, restrictions on the use of chemicals, and compliance with environmental and social criteria at all stages of the production chain.
FSC ensures that companies respect the forests and plantations they source from.
OEKO-TEX ensures that the company is environmentally friendly in both its production processes and plants, as well as guaranteeing the absence of substances harmful to health.
REDUCE REUSE RECYCLE
The RE-MATCH project gives new life to half scarves abandoned in the warehouses of affectionate suppliers.
Each half was assembled by our tailors according to the patchwork rule, creating unique, one-of-a-kind pieces.
