STINGING NETTLE – THE ECO-PROMISING FIBER®

Nettle is more than just a plant – it is a true natural wonder and a symbol of sustainability in the fashion world. Here are the outstanding properties of this extraordinary fiber:

• Grows everywhere and improves the soil: Nettles thrive without additional irrigation and prepare the soil for future crops – an invaluable benefit for agriculture and a step towards supporting people in need.

• No additional water consumption: The stinging nettle does not require any artificial irrigation and lives only from the water it receives from nature. This makes it particularly environmentally friendly.

• Protection by nature: Their leaves are a natural shield against insects and pests, so no fungicides or pesticides are needed – a clear plus point for biological sustainability.

• Natural growth: When the leaves of the stinging nettle fall, they release nitrogen, which provides the soil with everything it needs for healthy growth – without the use of fertilizers.

• Respect for tradition and knowledge: The processing of nettle fibers follows traditional methods based on ancient knowledge. Fibers, threads and fabrics are created from this respectful approach to agricultural culture.

• Criticism of globalized production methods: Nettle proves the shortcomings of a purely globalized economy and shows that regional, sustainable alternatives are the way forward.

• Hypoallergenic and skin-friendly: The fabric made from nettle fibers is hypoallergenic and particularly skin-friendly – ideal for sensitive skin.

• Durable and easy to care for: nettle fibers are not only robust and durable, they do not crease and are machine washable. The fabric is also pleasantly cool to wear.

Nettle – a natural, sustainable and future-proof fiber for fashion that treats the environment and people with respect.
