Alkena Naturtextilien

Silk is wonderful for the skin, particularly for sensitive skin. Silk is soft, gentle, and truly luxurious. It is ideal for year-round wear, helping to regulate the body’s temperature and keeping cool during summer and warm during winter. Silk is both insulating and breathable and also resists dirt and odors quite well. All of Alkena’s processes, including knitting, weaving, dyeing, printing and s

ewing are annually inspected and monitored by IMO as against Global Organic Textile Standard. Sichuan Alkena focuses on dyestuff quality and is environment-friendly. The Alkena dyeing mill utilizes Clariant reactive dyestuff free from heavy metals, toxin and AOX. Label origin and quality, hangtag, wrapping tissue and all kinds of accessories are under strict control of Sichuan Alkena and clients complying with Oeko-Tex 100, GOTS or buyer's national standards. Alkena is committed to 'No heavy metal and no toxin'. Organic silk cocoons originate from Alkena’s self-invested farms. Cocoons are reeled for filament by a long-term partner. IMO supervises and certifies all silk farms, reeling mill and garment workshops annually as organic producers.
