Materials

When choosing a suitable material, both the sustainable aspect and the manufacturing process were important to us.

Eco Felt

All our products are made from eco-felt, which is certified to be composed of 96% recycled PET bottles. The production process starts with sorting household plastics. PET is then separated from metals and other bottles, and colored PET is sorted from transparent PET. This is followed by washing, grinding, drying, pressing, dyeing, carding preparation for needling, and finally, thermo-fixing.

30 PET bottles produce 1 kg of eco-felt.

Global Recycling Standard

The material originates from Italy, and the production complies with the Global Recycle Standard (GRS). This is an international, voluntary, and comprehensive product standard that establishes requirements for the independent certification of recycled materials, the supply chain, as well as social and environmental practices, and chemical restrictions.

PUR Foam

For upholstery material, we exclusively use PUR (polyurethane foam) with a density of RG 50/75. This "memory foam" maintains its elasticity even after years of use, making it ideal for upholstery projects. Despite a relatively thin profile of "only" 15mm, the cushions are comfortable and retain their shape. Unfortunately, there is currently no PUR foam made from recycled materials available.

Sewing Thread

For our products, we use exclusively tear-resistant sewing thread made from 100% polyester to withstand the highest demands. Soon, we will transition to using recycled thread.
