OUR COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS.
At OMNES, we are dedicated to using the lowest impact fabrics for our designs. We prioritize organic, recycled, and deadstock materials, while continuously researching new sustainability solutions and innovations.
We acknowledge the environmental impact of textile production. By making responsible material choices, we consider the quality, feel, functionality, and the environmental and social impacts of a fabric.
This includes examining where raw materials are grown, if pre-existing resources can be utilized, and the certifications granted to the supply chain, to create designs that benefit people and our planet.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
Our goal is to only use biodegradable, recycled, or existing materials that can fit into a circular economy. We are dedicated to minimizing our environmental impact through conscious material sourcing and innovative design.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
Eco-friendly materials driving innovation
LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose
Sustainable wood-based fibers
LENZING™ ECOVERO™ fibers are sourced from responsibly managed forests, ensuring a continuous supply of this valuable resource.
TENCEL™ Lyocell
Biodegradable and compostable fibers
TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers are produced using a closed-loop process that recovers 99.8% of the solvent, minimizing waste and environmental impact.
Organic Cotton
Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, insecticides and fertilisers, and from seeds that have not been genetically modified.
TENCEL™ Lyocell fibres produced with REFIBRA™ technology use textile waste as a raw material, in addition to wood. The fibres contain a minimum of 30% recycled material.
Sustainable Cotton Sourcing
Our Commitment to Ethical Practices
Recycled Polyester
Satin-like and silky smooth, our Recycled Polyester fabric is made from post-consumer plastic bottles. Recycled polyester can be a less impactful alternative to conventional polyester as it does not use virgin resources, but makes use of consumer waste that would otherwise have gone to landfill.
Recycled Cotton
Recycled cotton gives new life to waste from the production process, reducing the need for new resources to be used.
Denim
Soft and supple, our denim is produced by Bossa – a fabric mill in Turkey that has embedded sustainability into its operations - and is made from a blend of LENZING™ TENCEL™ Lyocell and organic cotton, andcotton sourced from BCI members. Our black and grey colourways also utilise LENZING™ REFIBRA™ technology, which takes production cotton scraps and upcycles them into new TENCEL™ Lyocell fibres, contributing to a circular economy.
Wool
Biodegradable, recyclable, natural, long-lasting, easily repairable…the list of wool’s amazing credentials goes on and on. We use super soft Italian Merino wool and Mongolian wool that is responsibly sourced, always prioritising animal welfare standards. You can read more in our animal welfare policy here.
Linen
Linen is a versatile, breathable, and biodegradable fibre that can be grown with minimal water and without the need for toxic chemicals.
Deadstock fabrics
Deadstock fabrics provide the opportunity to make use of existing resources over creating new materials. These could be fabrics that didn’t go to the intended buyer or weren’t made into finished garments.
Materials we choose not to use
Sustainable Style
Our commitment to the planet means avoiding microplastics and harmful chemicals. We prioritize biodegradable and eco-friendly materials, ensuring our designs are as kind to the Earth as they are beautiful. Join us in embracing fashion that doesn't cost the Earth.
Ethical Materials
Our commitment extends beyond aesthetics. We prioritize materials that respect animal welfare and minimize environmental impact. We strictly avoid animal skins, fur, silk, feathers, down, angora, mohair, and horn buttons. While we support the use of wool when sourced responsibly and meeting strict welfare standards, our primary focus remains on natural fibers with a low lifecycle environmental footprint.
