Women's Circular Cardigan NILPLA® Basic purple-grey

Sustainability

We are Nilmore®, first circular clothing brand. Our circular clothing has the lowest environmental impact thanks to our new textile material NILPLA®. NILPLA® is bio-based material made of corn or sugar cane. Thanks to recycling, we consume these raw materials only at the beginning, and then we only keep the material in a loop.

Together with circular nylon, NILPLA® is one of the most sustainable textiles according to the HIGG index. Circularity takes sustainability to a whole new level, where in comparison with conventional clothing, we achieve:

• 98 % lower water consumption compared to cotton
• 86 % lower CO2 emissions compared to polyester
• Elimination of textile waste
• Production in the Czech Republic
• Dyed according to Oeko Tex Standard 100

By buying clothes and returning them for recycling at the end of its life, you help us change the world for the better.

We recommend washing clothes at 30-40 degrees Celsius and using a washing bag for loose microfibers, which you can return to us for recycling with used clothing. Do not tumble dry and do not iron – by this, you can save the clothes, your money and also our planet. The material is quick-drying and non-shrinking. If it still requires small ironing, carefully iron it over a piece of other fabric to the lowest level (up to 110 degrees) and without steam, otherwise there is a risk of damaging the material!

What to do with the clothing at the end of its life?

You can return our circular clothing to us at the end of its life at one of our NIL Circular Points or for free by Packeta. For each piece returned, we will reward you with CZK 100 for your next purchase. How to do it?
