THE NEW DENIM PROJECT

TNDP

The New Denim Project is a product line at Iris Textiles, who are an industrial family owned textile group, proudly operating since 1956 in Guatemala. They manufacture 100% sustainable eco-cotton yarns, fabrics, garments and accessories.
 The New Denim textile line within Iris Textile has been developed by collecting pre-consumer denim off-cuts from jean manufacturers cutting tables, grinding these scraps back into fibre to be spun once again into new yarns and woven up-cycled fabrics. All products are 100% natural and compostable. No synthetic fibres are added during the technical up-cycling process. Waste from Iris textiles' own up-cycling process is passed onto the coffee farmers as compost which helps then then grow speciality coffee in the highland regions of Guatemala resulting in a circular process.

 

UPCYCLED DENIM

Textiles do not refer to pieces

of cloth — textiles are the framework of our second skin. They involve an artistic process, a transformation of fibres, evidence of the creative mind. Fabrics tell us stories, breathing history, telling us what is happening and where we’re going.

 

Textiles make culture.
