Circular economy
TESMA CASHMERE buys bales of used cashmere meshes from all over the world with the aim of placing them back into the production process, without the need to resort to a new dye, thus avoiding unnecessary consumption of water, use of chemicals and intensive exploitation of pastures.
After a careful selection, division by color and cleanliness, the meshes are brought back to being fiber through the use of special carding that preserve the softness and quality. The purpose of the process is to "go back" that is to generate textile fiber again, ready to be transformed into yarn, fabric and finally into clothing.
