Jute, known as the ‘golden fibre’ is the national emblem of Bangladesh.
It grows abundantly, reaching maturity up to three times a year, making it a highly efficient source of renewable fibre.
It
has natural UV protection and so grows without needing fertilizers and
pesticides, in fact jute enhances the quality of the soil for future
crops.
It is 100% biodegradable.
Jute is the softest natural fibre and so is very comfortable underfoot.
It is also surprisingly the hardest wearing, so products will last and last.
An added bonus is that jute is naturally fire retardant.
