Recycled and recyclable materials
Rifò garments are recycled and recyclable.
We select our materials based on these requirements, choosing natural, biodegradable materials composed of at least 50% recycled fibers. Then there is a third, fundamental requirement: transparency.
We try as far as possible to rely only on producers capable of guaranteeing the traceability and ethics of the supply chain, as well as reliable studies and data on the impacts of sustainable production.
Where do they come from
Our yarn and fabric suppliers are all located in Italy, especially in the textile district of Prato.
The only exception is a supplier based in Spain, which, however, has representatives in Italy.
We visit them at least three times a year to check the production processes of the yarns and fabrics we use.

Fluffypack
From mixed textile waste to reusable packaging
We have studied a special solution to give new life to mixed composition waste.
This reusable packaging is created through a mechanical recycling process that does not require water.
The composition of Fluffypack felt comes from mixed fibers, primarily cotton and polyester.
A revolutionary packaging
Fluffypack is a new sustainable, reusable packaging made from recycled felt that gives new value to textile waste that cannot be recycled for clothing.
These materials account for 30% of the 11 kg of textile waste per person thrown away yearly in Europe alone. By choosing Fluffypack, you make a conscious and responsible choice for the planet.
Fluffypack is tested to travel and protect your Rifò purchases from water and weather. You can select it as a shipping option at checkout.
From disposable packaging to multi-use object
The great thing about Fluffypack is that its life cycle doesn't end with shipping.
Depending on the size, it can become a convenient container for your suitcase, a bag for kids' toys or dirty laundry, a large toiletry bag or, why not, even an original gift wrap.
Capsule Zero Waste
We are committed to giving new life to what is normally considered waste, including surplus yarns from our own stock, which we reuse to create our limited edition Zero Waste collections, or fabrics that are leftovers from other companies, which we save from the landfill.
