annotationText | The mill works with purchases their raw cashmere wool from herders in Mongolia and Northern China, which is the natural habitat of cashmere goats. The yarn they produce meets the Detox Greenpeace standard, which means its free from harsh chemicals typically used in dyeing and finishing. “There is tremendous amount of greenwashing and false claims in the industry at the moment,” adds Monica. “We want to make sure our partners address both environmental and ethical aspects, from the provenance of the yarn and the way the animals are treated, to the dyeing and finishing practices, to energy and water consumption, industrial waste disposal and worker conditions.” |
