This post-consumer woolen upholstery fabric is suitable for all types of upholstery.
The recycled yarns are carded from regenerated woolen products. Carding is a specific way of processing yarns.
Due to an environmental friendly production process, used woolen clothing, fabrics & knits get a second life.
The result is a yarn and eventually a fabric like Facet, with a particular characteristic that distinguishes it from other virgin woolen yarns.
The entire production and finishing process is done by an Italian textile specialist, known for this type of production for more than a century.
During use, a certain hairiness may appear, this has no further influence on the durability of this type of woolen fabrics. Due to the production process, each batch is unique and colour variations may occur.
Due to its composition FACET passes the BS5852 cigarette (part 0) & match (part 1) test and also the EN1021 cigarette (part 1) & match (part 2) test.
Currently we are unable to obtain transaction certificates for this product. Therefore, this product is not GRS certified. We are working on alternative methods to verify the recycled content independently.
