Our materials
viscose
With the viscose used, we have found a material for our harem pants that is not only super comfortable, soft and light, but also has other - ecological - advantages. Viscose is a semi-synthetic fiber made from cellulose, which is obtained from wood and therefore consists of renewable resources. In addition, no petroleum is used in the production of viscose and no pesticides are used. In addition, the water and energy requirements as well as the use of space are lower than with other materials such as conventional cotton.
In addition, and despite the trust we have in our producer, we regularly have samples of our materials tested for harmful and unwanted substances in an independent laboratory in Germany in order to be able to guarantee that they are free of harmful substances.
Viscose is a material made from renewable raw materials, with low use of resources and pesticides. It is also very comfortable and practical as the fabric takes up little space and dries extremely quickly. Our enchanting, colorful patterns add the icing on the cake.
Organic cotton
Cotton has been a popular material for clothing for a long time due to its convincing properties. Cotton is soft, skin-friendly and durable. It is easy to care for, breathable, highly absorbent and light in weight. Cotton is also a natural fiber and therefore a renewable raw material.
But unfortunately, a full 25% of the world's use of artificial pesticides can be traced back to the cultivation and use of conventional cotton. We think that's clearly too much. Because we still don't want to miss out on the numerous advantages of natural fibers, we have decided to use organic cotton.
Organic cotton is grown organically and without the use of pesticides and fertilizers. This is advantageous because these chemicals not only pollute the earth, air and water, but also affect the health of workers.
In addition, the cultivation of organic cotton requires less than half the energy that the conventional variant requires.
The high water consumption of conventional cotton is also problematic. The good thing about organic cotton is that it requires 88% less water than conventional cotton because it relies primarily on rainwater.
Elastane
Elastane is an elastic synthetic fiber that consists largely of polyurethane. It is a popular mixed fiber, so it is usually not used in its pure form, but rather added to other fibers in a small proportion. This makes the textiles elastic and dimensionally stable. We use elastane in a few of our tops to allow for stretch and fit.
Unfortunately, the production of elastane requires non-renewable resources and a lot of energy. We are aware that this does not make the fiber particularly sustainable. Unfortunately, there is currently a lack of sustainable alternatives to elastane, which is why we cannot currently completely abandon the use of synthetic fibers. Until then, we will try to keep the use of elastane in our clothing as low as possible and only use certified elastane. Our long-term goal is definitely to use only natural and renewable raw materials.
Ecovero
Ecovero fibers are obtained from certified, renewable wood sources and manufactured in an environmentally friendly production process that significantly reduces CO₂ emissions and water consumption compared to conventional processes. The manufacturing process has been awarded the EU Ecolabel, which confirms its low environmental impact.
Manufactured in a particularly resource-saving manner, Ecovero relies on the efficient use of energy and water. The wood sources used come from sustainable forestry and contribute to the preservation of forests and the promotion of biodiversity. This minimizes environmental impact and makes a valuable contribution to protecting our planet.
In addition to the ecological advantages, Ecovero also impresses with its maximum wearing comfort. The fibers are exceptionally soft, breathable and skin-friendly - ideal for clothing that is comfortable to wear all day long.
Our trousers made from Ecovero are not only durable, but also easy to care for. They retain their shape and color even after frequent washing - perfect for everyday wear!
