Zero Waste Recycled Cashmere Gloves Ago
By purchasing this garment you can...
Use even the last resources
Rifò Zero waste creations want to send a message: no produced material has to be wasted. The textile sector generates high quantities of scraps and we aim at reducing it as much as possible. Ethical production and recycling too mean having an environmental impact, so we must try to exploit all the textile fibers we created.
Support our values and a fair economy
TRANSPARENT PRICES
Our prices reflect our values, which encompass the entire supply chain:
Quality, as we choose to produce in Italy, valuing the work of artisans and utilizing natural and biodegradable materials. Sustainability, as we use low-impact, recycled and recyclable yarns, and produce our garments within a 30 km radius of our office.** Responsibility**, because we believe in fair wages and respect for the rights of those who make our clothes.
Take part in the circular economy
RECYCLED AND RECYCLABLE MATERIALS
This garment is made with pre-loved yarn, obtained through the recycling of old knitted garments, carefully selected by color and composition. Thanks to this process, there is no need to re-dye the recycled yarn, which significantly reduces the consumption of water, dyes, and polluting chemicals.
Support local artisans
MADE IN ITALY
This garment is meticulously handcrafted in Beppe's workshop, Nicole srl, located just 5 km from our office. We have been collaborating with Beppe for years now on the creation of accessories, especially our recycled gloves.
In 2022, we initiated a supply chain sustainability monitoring project focusing on social sustainability aspects with the help of the auditing company Bureau Veritas. Beppe's company will be subject to this verification by 2025.
Contribute to our social project
NEI NOSTRI PANNI PROJECT
For every purchase made on our online shop, we donate €2 to the social impact project Nei Nostri Panni. This project aims to safeguard the artisanal skills of textile recycling in Prato, which are at risk of being lost without a new generation taking up these crafts. The donation will contribute to funding paid training for migrants coming from local reception centers. This initiative combines social integration with the preservation of traditional craftsmanship.
