Sustainability Credentials

The Övik Re-Wool Shirt is made from recycled wool and G-1000® Eco on the elbows and yoke.  Wool is a natural and entirely biodegradable fibre and therefore a great choice for the environment. Re-wool products take this another step further as they are made of recycled wool. This decreases virgin wool use and finds a new purpose for the wool cut-offs from the production of other garments. This results in lower energy consumption since fibres that have already been spun and dyed and are only mixed to create the desired colours. Those colours are even deeper and more nuanced than those of their garments. The longevity of the product is increased by using the very robust G-1000® Eco in exposed areas. This design aims to decrease the frequency with which products need to be replaced which is a major part of sustainable production and consumption. G-1000® Eco is made from 65% recycled polyester and 35% organic cotton. The recycled polyester comes from PET-bottles as well as second quality fabrics and fabric offcuts that are otherwise unusable. Recycling existing materials means a reduction in the use of raw materials, particularly those from non-renewable sources.
