The importance of the ECOVERO Certificate

The Viscose is one of the most widely used prime materials in recent times, thanks to its softness and the ease with which it can be blended with other fibres. Its lightness, soft touch and versatility have made it a highly attractive fabric, although with implications for the environment.

Traditional viscose has sometimes been seen as an environmentally friendly option, as it is a vegetable fibre and biodegradable. However, most of the time it also involves the use of toxic chemicals such as carbon disulphide, sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid. Moreover, because it is made from cellulose, it usually also leads to deforestation and forest degradation..

Thanks to this ECOVERO certificate, we can ensure more eco-friendly and sustainable viscose eco-friendly y sostenibles for our planet.
