Jackfruit's fabric (and other materials)

main fabric

90% Lenzing TENCEL™ Modal, 10% elastane. Lenzing's TENCEL™ Modal fibres are produced in a closed loop system, made from naturally irrigated plantations on non-arable land - making them as sustainable as you can get! Sourced from Melbourne Textile Knitting Co (who are also accredited by Ethical Clothing Australia!).

elastic

90% nylon and 10% elastane. Sourced from M Recht.

dye

I use only low impact fibre reactive dye, soda ash and glauber salt when dyeing. Due to the way the dye bonds to the fabric (covalent bonding) the majority of the dye absorbs into the fabric. So there’s far less excess dye than traditional direct dyes and therefore very little waste water created, and far less water usage in general. Sourced from Kraftkolour.
