Nettle and hemp are pleasant-feeling fibres, they are ancient textile fibres and ecological to cultivate. They do not need harmful chemicals to grow, on the contrary, they enrich the soil microbiota and make the soil more fluffy with their long roots.
Knokkon’s goal is to keep the carbon footprint of its products as small as possible. The materials are ecological and sourced as close as possible. The nettle (urtica dioica) and hemp used in the fabric are ecologically and ethically cultivated in Germany. The fibres are being removed mechanically, without water, by an innovative method. The cotton used as a fabric binder is produced in Turkey ethically and ecologically. The yarns used in the fabric are spun in Germany and woven into fabric in Finland.
Nettle-hemp-cotton fabric is also an ecological choice because no herbicides or pesticides are used in the cultivation of the materials. Nettle and hemp only need natural rain to grow, which also saves groundwater.
Thank you for choosing an ethically produced organic product!
