We don't use any harmful chemicals in the fibre spinning process. As the pulp for SPINNOVA® fibre is refined mechanically, it does not need to be dissolved using harmful chemicals. The refined cellulose is then transformed into a spinning-ready fibre suspension without harmful chemistry.
SPINNOVA® fibres can be recycled in the same process without losing quality. We have tested the recyclability of SPINNOVA® fibre with its own technology, and the tests show that when the fibre is recycled in this way, it does not lose quality.
Less impact
When produced from eucalyptus pulp, the greenhouse gas emissions of SPINNOVA® fibre are 74% lower than the global average emissions of conventional cotton. These emissions include raw material supply, transportation of raw materials, and manufacturing the fibre product (cradle-to-gate).
From farming to fibre processing, eucalyptus-based SPINNOVA® fibre consumes as much as 98% less water compared to the average water consumption in conventional cotton production. This is mainly due to the heavy watering required by cotton plants, while eucalyptus trees rely on rainfall for irrigation.
