Our Fibres
Organic Rosepetal Fibre
Rose Petal Fiber is another one of the new vegan handwoven fibers made from roses. The rose petal fiber is extracted from the natural waste of rose petals and rose bushes. Then is the fiber stripped and processed to create a luxurious soft spinning fiber, similar to silk.
Rose petal fiber is very fine and quite slippery so it needs to be spun with a tight twist.
This fiber is an environmentally friendly, green eco fiber and it is bio-degradable.
Peace / Ahimsa / Raw Silk
Raw silk is the most natural form of delicate fiber which can get easily and smoothly woven into different fabrics and garments.
Only the cocoons of the silk producing worms are used so therefore is the worm not harmed. Once the silkworm completes cocoon, the cocoon is placed in boiling water to get individual longer fibers which used in the spinning reel. Then the silk is boiled in soap and water, leaving it soft and lustrous.
The yarns are used to weave in together and form the finest and the most delicate form of texture, which has never faded in its popularity through the decades.
It is considered to be the oldest and the finest fabrics across the world. According to Indian History, this shimmering fabric traces its roots of origin and existence way back to the Indus Valley Civilization.
Ahimsa (non-violence) is one of 10 Yogic Vows, this is the meaning:
We hurt ourselves (and of course others) whenever we allow emotional outbursts—or even entertain thoughts—expressing hatred, anger, or ill will. Violence toward oneself is equally disallowed by an ethical consciousness. Ahimsa is an inherent part of our natural state. We are beings of divine love and compassionate fellowship. When we recognize our Being as pure Presence and enter into the silence of the Heart, we become Love. There is no violence in our authentic essence.
Ahimsa is the establishment of one’s character in complete nonviolence in thought, word, and deed, in relation to all beings, including the self. When ahimsa becomes the way of life for humanity at large, through the power of our morphogenetic field, there will be world peace.
Bamboo
Bamboo fabric, is a sustainable textile that combines luxurious comfort with environmental responsibility. Bamboo fabric is celebrated for its softness, breathability, and eco-friendly properties, making it a preferred choice for conscious consumers.
Bamboo’s eco-friendly credentials are impressive. As one of the fastest-growing plants in the world, bamboo requires minimal water, pesticides, and fertilizers to thrive. Its rapid growth rate means it can be harvested sustainably without depleting natural resources or harming the environment. Additionally, bamboo plantations help to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions and promote biodiversity, making bamboo fabric a truly sustainable choice.
But bamboo fabric offers more than just environmental benefits. Its natural antibacterial and moisture-wicking properties make it ideal for clothing, bedding, and other textiles. Bamboo fabric is also incredibly soft and gentle on the skin, making it suitable for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
Ramie Nettle Fibre
Our Ramie Nettle Fiber, is an eco-friendly textile that intertwines sustainability with style. Derived from the resilient Ramie plant, this natural fiber holds the key to a more sustainable future in fashion.
Ramie Nettle Fiber’s eco-friendly credentials stem from its cultivation process. Unlike conventional textiles, Ramie requires minimal water and pesticides to grow, making it a low-impact option for environmentally-conscious consumers. Its cultivation promotes biodiversity and reduces the carbon footprint associated with clothing production.
Furthermore, Ramie’s durability ensures longevity, minimizing the need for frequent replacements and reducing textile waste. Its natural resistance to bacteria and mold also means fewer chemicals are required for maintenance, further lessening its environmental impact.
But beyond its environmental benefits, Ramie Nettle Fiber embodies a rich cultural heritage. Revered for centuries in various cultures, Ramie symbolizes resilience and purity, reflecting humanity’s deep connection to nature.
Organic Cotton
Cotton is a soft, fluffy staple fibre that grows in a boll, or protective capsule, around the seeds of cotton plants. The plant is a shrub native to tropical and subtropical regions around the world, including the Americas, Africa, and India. The fibre most often is spun into yarn or thread and used to make a soft, breathable textile, which is the most widely used natural-fibre cloth in clothing today.
Organic cotton is a more positive and sustainable alternative than conventional cotton. It is made from non-genetically modified plants that are grown without the use of any synthetic agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers or pesticides. This makes it better for the environment, the climate and the health of the people involved.
Instead of using fertilizers, farmers will either: use organic sprays such as garlic, chillies and soap that get rid of the wrong insects without affecting the good ones; or they will companion plant, using other species in between the cotton to deter and confuse pests. Many cotton pests prefer maize, sunflower, sweet sorghum, pigeon pea and ocra to cotton, so these are used as trap crops, keeping pests away from the cotton plants.
Organic cotton is not only softer on your skin, but it has huge positive environmental impacts too.
Without the use of pesticides, beneficial insects remain in the ecosystem, biodiversity is conserved, soil has higher organic matter content which prevents soil erosion, and any water run-off is safe from chemicals which protects surrounding plants, waterways and therefore anyone who uses that water. It is also safer for the farmers, who are not breathing in or digesting harmful pesticides and herbicides.
Organic cotton provides high quality products that are soft and breathable – much kinder to the skin.
Unfortunately, less than 0.1% of global cotton production is organic – But we are here to bring the change!
Cotton Gauze
Our Cotton Gauze, is a fabric that not only embodies comfort and style but also champions sustainability and eco-friendliness. Renowned for its softness and breathability, cotton gauze stands as a beacon of natural beauty and environmental responsibility.
Cotton gauze’s eco-friendly stature stems from its cultivation process. Unlike conventional cotton, which often relies heavily on pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, cotton gauze is typically produced using organic farming methods. This means that fewer harmful chemicals are used, resulting in healthier soil, water, and ecosystems.
Furthermore, cotton gauze is often sourced from sustainable cotton farming practices, such as rain-fed agriculture or integrated pest management. These methods reduce water usage, minimize soil erosion, and promote biodiversity, making cotton gauze a more environmentally conscious choice compared to conventional cotton.
But the benefits of cotton gauze extend beyond its eco-friendly cultivation. Its lightweight and breathable nature make it a preferred choice for warm-weather garments, reducing the need for energy-intensive cooling solutions. Additionally, its durability ensures longevity, reducing the frequency of replacements and contributing to a more circular fashion economy.
