Schachenmayr Cotton4future wool.

Lanas Schachenmayr Cotton4future is an environmentally friendly woven cotton, composed of equal parts of recycled cotton and polyester. These materials come from recycled fibres and plastic bottles... Recycled cotton is often combined with recycled plastic bottles to make garments and textiles, creating sustainable, earth-conscious products. Schachenmayr Cotton4future is a yarn composed of cotton and polyester from recycled materials. The result is a yarn with a very soft touch, with which you will get very light and fresh garments, ideal for the spring-summer season. The best thing about making garments and accessories with it is that you can contribute to the recycling of unused materials to care for and keep the planet clean.

The composition of Schachenmayr Cotton4future is

50% cotton. 50% polyester. Cotton recycling avoids unnecessary waste and can be a more sustainable alternative to disposal. Recycled cotton can come from older garments, previously used or from textile waste that is then spun into new yarns and fabrics. There are some notable limitations of recycled cotton, including the separation of materials that are cotton/polyester blend. There may also be limits to the durability in the use of recycled cotton. Cotton is obtained from textile waste from garment production, while polyester comes from plastic bottles. This plastic is broken down into small granules and converted into a new yarn. This is a perfect quality for the summer season, as your work will be fresh, light and very soft.
