Reducing waste
Using discarded material and making it into new long lasting high quality products elevates the value of the raw material and reduces waste.
Hekne never buy big amounts of fabric for production, to make sure they don’t end up with excess materials. They don’t mind using the same materials for different collections if it means using what they already have in stock, and they want to give their garments a life that lasts longer than one season.
Recycled
The yarn that this product is made of is made out of 100 % recycled material, broken down and spun into new thread.
Low Toxic
The yarn is made of 70% wool, 25% polyamide, 5% other fibres, all recycled. This process makes the yarn almost non toxic and soft but long lasting. Taking the wool through the process makes it almost pilling-free.
