The gamble on regenerated merino wool: combining the best of innovation with respect for tradition.
Currently, the majority of extra-fine wool comes from sheep raised in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and South America, often under intensive farming conditions, with 70% of the wool then sent to China for processing.
To overcome this manufacturing process, which has a very heavy carbon impact, we are offering an innovative solution for our first sweater.
An extra-fine recycled wool yarn, 50% post-consumer and 50% pre-consumer, GRS certified and made in Italy. Post-consumer = old 100% wool sweaters, mechanically recycled then reprocessed into yarn, combined with production scraps from wool sweaters (this is pre-consumer).
The recycling of sweaters and the manufacturing of new yarn are carried out in Italy. Our sweaters are then knitted in Italy.
How to maintain it?
You can wash it by hand or in the machine on wool program (cold or 30 degrees), low spin (400 revolutions max), use a special wool detergent, no softener needed. Do not put in the dryer, do not iron and lay it flat so that it dries without losing its shape.
