Sustainability
Wool
Naturally Circular. Endlessly Sustainable.
Naturally Circular
Wool is a renewable, biodegradable fibre that returns nutrients to the soil at the end of its lifecycle. This makes it a truly circular material, unlike synthetic fibres that contribute to long-term waste.
No Microplastic Pollution
Unlike synthetic fabrics, wool doesn’t shed microplastics. This makes it a safer and more sustainable alternative in a world where textile-based microplastic pollution is a growing concern.
Recyclable & Regenerative
Wool garments can be recycled into new, luxurious woolen fabrics, reducing the demand for virgin wool and extending the fibre’s life. This supports both waste reduction and material efficiency.
Low-Impact Processing
Because recycled wool is already dyed, it skips harsh bleaching and re-dyeing steps, saving water, energy, and chemicals, while delivering beautiful, eco-conscious fabrics.
Sustainable Wool Innovation
Natural Fiber Selection
We start with premium wool, blended only with natural fibers like cotton, bamboo, and Altag for enhanced sustainability.
Eco-Conscious Blending
Each blend is designed to reduce environmental impact while maintaining comfort, durability, and breathability.
Smart Fabric Treatment
Fabrics undergo special pretreatment to ensure zero shrinkage and easy machine washability—no special care needed.
Recycled wool yarn as our core raw material
Sustainability refers to meeting present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs. It involves maintaining the balance between environmental health, economic development, and social well-being.
At Kochartex, recycled wool yarn isn’t just a material, it’s the foundation of our sustainability commitment as a fabric manufacturer in India. Building on wool’s inherently circular nature, we’ve reimagined waste as a resource by sourcing post-consumer and pre-consumer wool to spin new life into textiles. This transformation process diverts wool from landfills and repositions it into high-value applications such as outerwear fabrics like melton fabric, wool tweed fabric, and jacquard weave fabric applied to everything from blazers to trench coats, etc. Every thread in our fabrics reflects a story of resourcefulness and responsibility.
The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is an internationally recognized certification developed by Textile Exchange that verifies the recycled content of products while upholding stringent social, environmental, and chemical processing criteria. It ensures full traceability across the supply chain, from raw material sourcing to the final product, with third-party audits at every stage. GRS also includes restricted substance guidelines for chemical safety and mandates ethical labour practices. At Kochartex, our GRS certification guarantees that our recycled wool is not only environmentally responsible but also produced under fair and safe working conditions—delivering sustainable quality you can trust.
The Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), also developed by Textile Exchange, certifies that the wool we use comes from farms where animal welfare and sustainable land management are prioritized. RWS prohibits harmful practices and ensures that sheep are treated ethically, with access to proper nutrition and living conditions. The standard also emphasizes soil health, biodiversity, and responsible grazing, while ensuring complete chain-of-custody traceability from farm to fabric. By sourcing RWS-certified wool, Kochartex upholds its commitment to humane, transparent, and environmentally sound production practices—without compromising on performance or quality.
