Materials

Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides or genetic engineering, helping to protect soil, water resources, and workers' health. According to Textile Exchange, it uses up to 91% less water and reduces CO₂ emissions by 46% compared to conventional cotton.

It’s gentle on the skin, breathable, and ideal for sensitive skin. Certifications like GOTS and OCS ensure high environmental and social standards.

By choosing organic cotton, you’re supporting quality, sustainability, and fair working conditions – for a better future.

Recycled Elastane

Recycled elastane is a stretchable synthetic fiber made from recovered materials, such as production offcuts or old textiles.

Compared to conventional elastane, it offers the same flexible and elastic properties, but reduces the need for newly produced synthetic fibers and lowers resource consumption.

This fiber is commonly used in activewear, sportswear, and underwear thanks to its comfort and ability to provide freedom of movement.

Using recycled elastane helps reduce plastic waste pollution and supports a more sustainable circular economy within the textile industry.

Recycled Polyester

Recycled polyester is made from plastic waste and fiber remnants from previous productions.

Through a specialized conversion process, a high-performance polyester fiber is created that offers the same functional properties as virgin polyester — including durability, lightness, and easy care.

By reusing existing materials, recycled polyester reduces the consumption of fossil resources, minimizes plastic waste, and lowers environmental impact.

This sustainable alternative is commonly used in sportswear, outdoor clothing, and performance apparel, as it is both durable and resource-efficient.

Recyceltes Polyester – Nachhaltige Alternative mit REPREVE®

REPREVE® is an innovative type of recycled polyester made from plastic bottles and production waste.

Through a specialized recycling process, a high-performance polyester fiber is created that offers the same properties as conventional polyester – lightweight, durable, and easy to care for – but with significantly lower environmental impact.

Using recycled polyester helps reduce plastic waste, conserve fossil resources, and lower CO₂ emissions.

It is widely used in sportswear, outdoor gear, and performance clothing as a sustainable alternative to virgin polyester.

TENCEL™, Lyocell & Modal – Nachhaltige Zellulosefasern

TENCEL™ is a brand name for environmentally friendly cellulose fibers produced by the company Lenzing AG.

The most well-known types include Lyocell and Modal, both made from sustainably sourced wood. These fibers offer a soft, breathable, and eco-friendly alternative to both synthetic and conventional natural fibers.

Lyocell – The Versatile Cellulose Fiber 🌱

Lyocell is derived from wood cellulose, often from eucalyptus, and is known for its particularly eco-friendly production process.

Unlike other viscose fibers, it is manufactured in a closed-loop system, where over 99% of the solvent used is recovered and reused.

Key Properties of Lyocell:

✔️ Soft and gentle on the skin

✔️ Highly breathable and moisture-regulating

✔️ Durable and long-lasting

✔️ Biodegradable

Modal – The Especially Soft Fiber

Modal is another cellulose fiber, typically made from beechwood.

Its production is resource-efficient, as beech forests regenerate naturally and require no additional irrigation.

Key Properties of Modal:

✔️ Extremely soft with a silky touch

✔️ Shape-retaining and wrinkle-resistant

✔️ Highly absorbent – ideal for performance wear

✔️ Durable and long-lasting

Econyl – Regenerated Nylon

Econyl is a sustainable alternative to conventional nylon, made from recycled nylon waste such as old fishing nets and carpet remnants.

The recycling process allows for complete regeneration without any loss in quality, creating a closed-loop production system.

Econyl has the same functional properties as traditional nylon – it is elastic, durable, and breathable – but with a significantly lower environmental impact.

It is widely used in sportswear, swimwear, and performance clothing as a resource-saving solution.
