Organic & Natural
HEMP, BANANA, LYOCELL & BAMBOO
Sustainable fibers such as hemp, lyocell, banana, and bamboo are a better alternative to conventional fibers. They are made from renewable resources and often require fewer inputs, such as water, pesticides, and fertilizers, to grow and process. This makes them a more environmentally friendly and socially responsible option for consumers.
Hemp
Hemp fabric is a type of textile made from the fibers of the hemp plant. It is known for its durability, breathability, and ability to resist mold and UV rays. Hemp fabric is also environmentally friendly, as it requires less water and pesticides than other crops used for fabric production. It is commonly used for clothing, bags, and home furnishings.
Lyocell/Tencel
It is made by dissolving cellulose (obtained from wood pulp) in a non-toxic, organic solvent, and then extruding the solution through a spinneret to create fibers. The solvent is then recovered and reused, making the process environmentally friendly.
Lyocell fibre fabrics have a silky feel, are highly absorbent, and have excellent moisture-wicking properties. They are also strong, durable, and resistant to wrinkling. These properties make lyocell a popular choice for clothing, bedding, and other textile applications.
It is also biodegradable and can be composted after use.
Banana Fibre
Banana fiber fabric is a type of textile made from the fibers extracted from the stems of banana plants. It is a natural and sustainable alternative to synthetic fabrics and is becoming increasingly popular in eco-friendly and sustainable clothing and textile products.
Bamboo
Bamboo fabric is a textile made from the fibers of the bamboo plant. It is soft and durable, with properties similar to cotton. Bamboo fabric is known for its eco-friendliness and sustainability, as bamboo is a fast-growing and renewable resource. Additionally, bamboo fabric is often hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and naturally anti-bacterial, making it a popular choice for clothing and home goods.
ADVANTAGES OF SUSTAINABLE FIBRE & SUSTAINABLE FABRICS:
The advantages of sustainable textile fibers include:
1. Reduced water usage: Many sustainable fibers, such as hemp and linen, require less water to grow and process compared to traditional fibers, such as cotton. This can help to conserve water resources and reduce water pollution.
2. Reduced pesticide and fertilizer use: Sustainable fibers, such as organic cotton, are grown without the use of harmful pesticides and fertilizers, reducing the impact of these chemicals on the environment and human health.
3. Decreased carbon footprint: Some sustainable fibers, such as bamboo and Tencel, have a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional fibers, as they require less energy and resources to produce and process.
4. Closed-loop production: Some sustainable fibers, such as Tencel, use closed-loop production processes, meaning that solvents and chemicals are recycled and reused, reducing waste and environmental impact.
5. Support for sustainable agriculture: By choosing sustainable fibers, consumers can support sustainable agriculture practices, such as organic farming, which promote soil health and biodiversity.
6. Social responsibility: Sustainable textile fibers are often produced using fair labor practices and promoting social responsibility and ethical standards in the textile industry.
7. Durability: Many sustainable textile fibers, such as hemp, are known for their durability and long-lasting properties.
8. Comfort: Some sustainable textile fibers, such as bamboo, are known for their softness and breathable properties, making them a comfortable choice for clothing and textiles that need to meet comfort and performance standards.
9. Versatility: Sustainable textile fibers can be made into a variety of fabric types and used for a range of applications, including clothing, home textiles, and industrial products.
By choosing sustainable textile fibers, consumers can support environmentally and socially responsible practices in the textile industry and make a positive impact on the environment. Additionally, sustainable textile fibers often offer high-quality and performance standards, making them a good choice for clothing and textiles that need to meet demanding requirements.
