Local & Made in Spain

In amt. we design and make all the prototypes and big part of the production of all our pieces in Manresa our hometown and the rest are ethically made in small and family factories from Spain. We believe in creating a local and circular economy. For that reason we buy, produce and sell locally always we can. This means a better control in our supply chains, less shippings and less stock movements while we save a significant amount of CO2, water and energy.

Outlet

We collaborate with “Moltacte” a social outlet in our hometown Manresa which sells the left stock of our collections locally and also helps people with mental health problems.

Recycled packaging

We have a curated packaging thought specially for you and made only with recycled and sustainable materials. “Save the lost %” is our project to give a second chance to the percentage of fabric wasted when a piece is cut transforming those little pieces of fabric into bags or little pieces to gift you or use in our packaging.

Certifications.

All our recycled fabrics and materials have certifications provided by our suppliers to guarantee the materials used are recycled & organic.

These are some of the certifications used in our collections.

Fabrics & Trimmings.

Recycled Cotton

Using recycled cotton and waste cotton fibers we reduce the use of virgin cotton and therefore we also save a significant amount of water, CO2 and other impacts of cotton cultivation. Recycled cotton needs much less resources than traditional cotton to be produced and helps us to don’t generated more textile.

Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is grown on land free of pesticides, herbicides and synthetic chemical fertilizers and does not contain genetically modified organisms. It also respects the cycles of the land through crop rotation and only uses natural products reporting benefits to producers, the environment and the consumer.

Recycled Polyester

Recycled polyester is manufactured from old polyester clothing pieces and plastic bottles. In this way, we prevent the plastic from ending up in landfills. The production of recycled polyester requires much less resources than other newer fibers, and also generates less CO2 and reduces our ecological impact.

Seaqual

Seaqual fabrics are made of high quality polyester yarn made from recycled materials that include post-consumer plastic bottles and plastic captured from the sea, so they help preserve natural resources and keep the oceans cleaner.

Tencel

Lyocell more known as TENCEL ™ is a synthetic and vegetal fiber made from the pulp of wood from sustainable agriculture trees, usually eucalyptus. It is totally biodegradable and its production is a closed cycle in which almost all of the solvents (of organic origin) used are reused or recycled. Textiles with this fiber are more absorbent than cotton, softer than silk and better than linen. Also Lyocell and Tencel are a perfect fiber for hypoallergenic people.

Cupro

Cupro yarns are made with the purest cellulose present in nature: cotton waste that, by a special process, can be dissolved and extruded to obtain a very delicate thread. The multifilament and capillary structure allows to make a material with unique characteristics of comfort, ventilation and resistance but also of extraordinary atoxic delicacy. The tissues made with this material are totally analgesic and, therefore, especially suitable for contact with the most delicate areas of the human body.

Recycled Wool

Recycled wool prevents woolen garments from ending up in landfills, it saves a large amount of water, reduces the use of land for sheep grazing and avoids the use of chemical substances in the dyeing process. Recycled wool helps reduce air, water and soil pollution. Be warm and sustainable at the same time.

Recycled Leather

Our leather accessories are made with 100% recycled leather made from old jackets, bags and waste leather crushed and glued with vegetable resin. With this

Recycled Trimmings

In our collections we also use natural or recycled trimmings like buttons made of organic cotton, recycled polyester, recycled paper, coconut, wood and recycled wood.

Maybe Sustainability is a utopia but we are truly dreamers.
