Introduction to Altramoda's Recycled Cashmere Collection
Welcome to the world of recycled cashmere by Altramoda, a collection that combines the luxury and softness of this precious material with a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach. This line consists of sweaters, cardigans, lounge pants for women and sweaters and hats for men, created with a regenerated, cruelty-free and mulesing-free cashmere.
We believe that fashion can be both elegant and ethical. The recycled cashmere used by Altramoda is entirely processed in Tuscany and requires minimal resources compared to traditional processes, reducing the consumption of water and chemicals. Our goal is to offer high-quality garments that have a minimal impact on the environment, because choosing a sustainable style does not mean giving up beauty and comfort.
Why Choose Recycled Cashmere?
Recycled cashmere is an ideal solution for those who want high-quality garments with a low environmental impact. But what are the reasons why it is worth choosing it?
- Saving natural resources : Recycled cashmere avoids the intensive production of new raw materials, using processing waste or old garments to create new yarn, thus reducing the consumption of water and chemicals.
- Quality and durability : Made in Italy, recycled cashmere is soft and durable, perfect for garments that last over time.
- Sustainable fashion : By choosing recycled cashmere garments, you reduce the impact of fashion on the planet and support a virtuous production cycle, in which even waste can become resources.
This choice allows you to enjoy the quality of cashmere and, at the same time, contribute to a more responsible and conscious fashion.
How Cashmere Recycling Works
The cashmere recycling process starts with the collection of old garments or processing waste, which are carefully selected, frayed and reworked to obtain new yarns.
In Prato, a city known for its historic textile supply chain, recycled cashmere takes on a new life. Here, each fiber is processed without additional dyeing treatments, maintaining the original colors of the material. This approach not only maintains the authenticity and naturalness of the garments, but drastically reduces the use of chemicals and water resources.
A 100% Made in Italy Supply Chain: The Heart of Prato
The recycled cashmere used by Altramoda comes entirely from Prato, Tuscany, an area famous for its experience in processing regenerated fabrics. The recycling chain is a virtuous example of craftsmanship and innovation:
- Craftsmanship and certified : Each garment is made by suppliers certified according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), which guarantees the responsible use of recycled materials and compliance with environmental and social standards.
- Reduced consumption : Dye-free processing reduces water consumption to just 90 litres per garment, compared to 1680 litres with traditional processes.
- Minimal environmental impact : Thanks to the absence of dye, over 300 grams of chemical products are saved and CO₂ emissions are reduced to approximately 95 g/cm.

By using recycled cashmere, Altramoda is committed to significantly reducing the environmental impact of its products:
