Baukjen’s clothing is made from a range of eco-friendly materials. These include Ecojilin Viscose, a man-made cellulose fibre made from wasted cotton fibre instead of virgin wood, saving trees! The collection also features Ecotec®, a recycled cotton made in Italy, reducing its carbon footprint by using textile waste from a local source, and Organic Cotton, which uses less water use and avoids the harmful chemicals which can be found in non-organic cotton. They also use Hemp, a durable and pesticide-free fibre, and Linen, a natural material with a low environmental impact, both grown from plants. LENZING™, ECOVERO™ and TENCEL™, man-made breathable fibres derived from sustainably managed forests, are also used. And the brand uses Newlife, a recycled polyester made from 100% post-consumer plastics.
