Buying fabrics really made in Europe, is the best and easiest step to start reducing your ecological footprint. Moreover, buying fabrics from Green Street Fabrics means buying from a truly sustainable production unit :
- All yarns and finishes used by Green Street Fabrics are made in Europe and therefore meet with the REACH-obligations. REACH is worldwide the best official and legal protection for mankind and nature, ensuring that a minimum of harmful substances is used in the final product sold to the end-consumer.
- The dying as well as the IMO-certified finishing is done by a local, specialized company with a fantastic waste-water system, ensuring that the water they extract from the river for dying and finishing, is purer and safer after use than before.
- Weaving is done in our factory here in Belgium, using electricity from 750 solar panels to run the looms and hybrid company-cars.
- Yarn- and textile-waste is being collected by a certified company to be re-used for the production of insulation-panels.
- Use of hybrid-cars for board-members, also powered by our solar panels.
