Key Features
- Perfect Stretch: 100% stretch, making it ideal for all kinds of sewing projects, from comfy waistbands to flexible cuffs.
- Sustainable Materials:
- 65% GOTS-certified organic cotton from Turkey, dyed with care in Germany.
- 35% FSC-certified natural rubber ethically harvested from Malaysian plantations.
Why We Love FSC-Certified Natural Rubber
- Planet-Friendly Practices: FSC certification ensures no harmful pesticides or deforestation, protecting forests for future generations.
- Regenerative Farming: Latex farming improves yields, captures carbon, and supports farmers with better incomes.
- Biodiversity Boost: 10% of plantation areas are preserved as natural forest, creating safe habitats for wildlife.
Caring for Your Elastic:
- Wash: Machine wash at up to 40°C (expect a max 5% shrinkage).
- Iron: Use a medium heat setting if needed.
- Detergent: Opt for liquid detergents – they’re gentler on the environment and the fabric.
- Drying: Skip the tumble dryer to help maintain elasticity and durability.
This elastic is the perfect match for eco-conscious crafters who want their projects to be as thoughtful as they are stylish. Whether you’re making clothes, accessories, or crafts, our elastic helps you stretch your creativity sustainably
