Textiles are all around us, and with them, thousands of chemicals. The latest data shows that 20% of the world’s freshwater, including harsh chemicals, is polluted by dyeing and printing processes. What’s more, when consumers wear textiles colored with these dyes, 10% of these chemicals are then transmitted into our bodies according to the CDC. But what if it could be different?

What if textiles could actually be packed with botanical benefits instead of harmful chemicals? That’s why we set out to develop a clean solution that not only removes toxic chemicals all across the supply chain,  but a solution that is planet-positive, human-kind, and with the ability to scale.

We believe that detoxifying textiles is not just about the manufacturing value chain, it’s about each and every one of us that comes in constant contact with textiles every single day. Detoxifying textiles means detoxifying our lives.  Let's detoxify the textile industry together!

Warum gestalten sich die Prozesse eigentlich so schwierig?
