New consumption habits in textile manufacturing
The second industrial revolution marked a turning point in history, from that moment onwards we began to consume the resources of our beloved planet at a dizzying rate.
In recent times, we have become increasingly aware of the irreparable damage we were and are causing, with a lifestyle sustained by the uncontrolled consumption of our resources and the uncontrolled dumping of the waste we generate.
Today, a large part of society and industry is fully convinced that we must change our habits and consumption. We must consume and produce in a sustainable way, ensuring that future generations can live in better harmony with the environment.
Extensive expertise in the manufacture of recycled yarns
Vilarrasa is pioneer in the manufacture of regenerated yarns, we have been passionate about quality and the environment for more than 50 years. During our origins, sustainability was not a trend in the fashion industry. The relationship with the fashion industry was massively influenced by trends, bloggers, price and speed. Recycled yarns were attributed to low quality, though Vilarrasa has always believed in delivering to the market sustainable solutions, reaching high-quality products.
Throughout our history we have collaborated with many customers, mainly with pre-consumer recycled yarns but almost with post-consumer recycled yarn, giving them solutions to reduce their environmental impact.
