Corozo is a 100% natural material, derived from the nut of the Tagua Palm which grows in the equatorial rainforests of central America. Otherwise known as “vegetable ivory”, Corozo is no ordinary material. In fact, it is really something special.

Corozo is made up of very tightly wound organic fibers which give it excellent durability and resistance. Its porous nature allows colors to penetrate deep into the surface which makes it an excellent material for dyeing. Corozo is also well known for its elegant natural grain; a unique pattern that, much like a fingerprint, ensures no two buttons are exactly alike.

Cotton is the most commonly used fiber for clothing textiles. Organic cotton is skin-friendly, suitable for the sensitive skin, easy to maintain and differentiates in two ways from conventional cotton:

1. It is not sprayed with herbicides and insecticides.
2. It does need large amounts of water to be environmental unfriendly, as being presumed.

In the cultivation of organic cotton, no pesticides are used, natural enemies (insects) are combated in an environmentally friendly manner. Weeds are not sprayed but removed mechanically or manually. Picking the cotton balls is done manually, without defoliating the plant first. GMO is forbidden.

Hemp is a so called bast fiber and is made from the stems of the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa) and was once considered to be one of the most useful fibers known to people, because so much could be made of it. In fact, this special versatility hasn’t changed: new applications include the use of hemp in biodegradable composites, interior and cosmetics. Hemp is generally seen as one of the most sustainable materials for fashion.

Hemp is considered to be one of the most sustainable textiles known. The plant doesn’t require irrigation during growth, has almost no natural enemies (insects) and therefore needs no treatment with pesticides. Because it grows very fast (up to 4 meters in just a couple of months) weeds don’t stand a chance, don’t hamper the growth of the hemp, and herbicides are not necessary.

Silk is a natural fiber with exceptional product qualities, such as strength, versatility and a smooth, soft texture without being slippery (as is the case with many synthetic fibers).

Our natural dyes are completely based on vegetable or (in the case of cochineal red) natural raw materials.

Tencel® is a revolutionary Eco-friendly and economical fiber. It is spun from a renewable resource, pulp from eucalyptus wood.

Tencel® fabrics are very versatile, light, smooth, soft, silky, breathable and form-retaining with good anti-bacterial properties which is why they are widely used in casual wear or sportswear. An additional advantage is that Tencel® is very absorbent, which means that less coloring substances are needed in the dyeing process.
