Eco-sustainability and certifications
A sustainable company since its founding
For our business, environmental sustainability is ingrained in our culture. We are acutely conscious of the problems with the environment and society that the world faces, as well as the significant environmental impact—second only to the food industry—that the textile business has on our planet.
As producers, we are aware of the important function we play in the textile supply chain and, together with our partners, we are dedicated to creating a more ethical and polite business from the ground up.
In its products, the company has always favored natural and environmentally friendly materials including linen, wool, hemp, recycled polyester, Tencel, and Modal.
Since Silvia, Antonio Danzo’s designer and daughter, has been following the new collections, the use of recycled, organic, and biodegradable products has been implemented. This has always been the common thread of her studies and collections in the hope of a more aware and respectful future for future generations and our irreplaceable planet.
Our dedication, however, does not end with the use of traceable raw materials with little environmental impact.
Let's use oursKNOW HOW
We appreciate the fibers for their intrinsic qualities, attempting to find optimal matching to maximize productivity… without resorting to invasive finishing treatments, favoring mechanical activities over chemical ones that damage the fiber. We respect what we use.
One of the reasons why the fashion industry pollutes so much (it is the world’s second most polluting industry after oil) is what happens to clothing items at the end of their lives. The vast majority of textile products cannot be recycled due to the fibers they are made of, and with which they are mixed.
However, there are several forward-thinking companies striving to discover a solution in this regard.
What happens to textile fibers in biodegradable fabrics?
!!! Organic fibers, such as cotton or wool, are naturally biodegradable when spun alone, without the addition of synthetic fibers.
