"Eco-Friendly Sustainable Fashion" Japan's Best Sustainable Fabrics

Share this blog post

As consumer awareness continues to deepen, the market for eco-friendly and sustainable apparel fabrics and materials is gradually expanding. Ethical fashion and environmental friendliness are now hot topics in the apparel industry, so sustainable fabrics and materials can be seen at every trade show in the industry. The emergence of sustainable textiles reflects modern people’s increasing concern for reducing environmental pollution. Many fabric and trim companies are also actively joining the path of sustainable development, using recyclable and renewable resources as raw materials to actively develop eco-friendly, environmentally friendly, sustainable fabrics.  

This time, we are providing information on high-quality sustainable fabrics that are popular in the Japanese and international markets.

Organic Cotton 

Compared with regular cotton, organic cotton has lower production efficiency, but has less impact on environmental pollution.

Recycled Materials 

Typical examples are recycled plastic bottles and recycled wool, which are made from wool products that have been crushed and reused. Functional materials such as Solotex®, which uses bio-derived materials as raw materials, are also very popular.

Regenerated Fibers

Although regenerated fibers are not a new technology, they play an important role in the sustainable textile industry. Tencel (TENCEL™) is a renewable fiber made from softwood pulp as raw material. It has a round cross section and combines advantages such as softness, drape, luster, and high strength, just like the perfect child next door. Based on 100% natural raw materials, combined with an eco-friendly manufacturing process, it not only meets the needs of modern consumers but is also green and environmentally friendly, and can be called a green fiber of the 21st century.
