Eco-sustainability
Eco-sustainability is a modern term.
It's there to remind us that we need to protect the next generation's environment from the negative impact on nature of the today's industrial and economic development.
We need to leave to our children the same resources left by our fathers.
2009.01.01 » An important date for the Fortex Group.
As of this date Fortex will embark on a project directed to give more respect to nature and environment.
It will be a hard task for the staff involved, but everybody is happy to embrace the cause very seriously, and not only to follow a momentary trend.
Our staff will work on the farms in Italy, trying to select the few available wool resources.
And they will also be tracing and checking the origin of the wool fibres imported, against the cruel "mulesing" practised by some australian farm.
Fortex will bring many articles made with regenerated wool and CottonLab will start to produce some fabric made with organic cotton.
The whole Fortex group will try hard to be able in a few seasons to produce really "Eco-sustainable" fabrics.
