Steps for
what revolves around reeco™?
Linen thrives in cool, humid climates, requiring about 700 mm of annual rainfall well-distributed over the 100-day growth and retting period. Hemp, on the other hand, is adaptable to various climates, preferring temperatures between 15°C and 27°C, with rapid growth making it ideal for crop rotations.
A Reeco® branded garment contains at least 20% certified recycled material, whether derived from linen or hemp, promoting sustainability in the textile industry.
Reeco® products offer a fully traceable production chain, validated through ISO 14021 certification, ensuring transparency and environmental responsibility.
In both linen and hemp production, all by-products are utilized, minimizing waste. Seeds not used for reseeding are employed in oils, paints, and cosmetics. Woody parts, such as linen “shive” and hemp “hurds,” are used in gardening, animal bedding, and construction materials. Shorter fibers are used in lower-grade textiles or composites for the automotive and sports industries.
Choosing linen or hemp products represents an ethical decision, supporting sustainable agricultural practices and reducing environmental impact.
Greenhouse gas emissions associated with linen and hemp production are low, as both plants require minimal chemical inputs and absorb significant amounts of CO₂ during growth.
The cultivation of linen and hemp requires minimal pesticides and fertilizers. While chemical treatments may be necessary, the quantities used are lower than those for conventional cotton. Both plants effectively compete with weeds, reducing the need for herbicides.
Recycled linen and hemp come from pre-consumer waste, avoiding the use of virgin material and promoting a circular economy in the textile sector.

100% LINEN AND HEMp
Linen and hemp are natural, durable fibers, with linen representing only 1% of materials used globally in fashion.
Both fibers require minimal water due to natural rainfall and reduced chemical inputs, leaving the soil free from toxins.
Most linen and a significant portion of hemp production occur in Europe, contributing to CO2 sequestration due to their rapid growth and carbon absorption capabilities.
They are antibacterial and long-lasting, making them ideal for promoting sustainable fashion.

100% LINEN AND HEMP WITH RECYCLED CONTENT
Choosing recycled linen and hemp is an eco-friendly choice that helps reduce waste.
Recycled materials come from both pre-consumer sources, such as production scraps, and post-consumer sources, like discarded garments.
This process gives new life to the fibers and reduces the use of virgin resources, supporting a circular economy in the textile sector.
