Demand for sustainable fabric is rising, and the yarn you choose is where it starts. Here are the main sustainable options and where each fits.
Bamboo yarn
Soft, breathable bamboo viscose with a naturally anti-bacterial appeal — ideal for premium, eco-positioned tees and innerwear.
Modal yarn
A silky, strong cellulosic made from beech cellulose, with excellent colour-fastness and a low-pilling, premium hand-feel.
Organic cotton
Cotton grown without synthetic pesticides, often certified to GOTS or OCS — a recognised choice for sustainable apparel.
Recycled blends
Yarns blended with recycled cotton or polyester reduce waste and support circular programmes.
How to choose
Match the fibre to the end use and to any certification your buyer requires, then confirm count and blend. Many sustainable options blend well with cotton to balance cost and performance.
