From old pants to new seats

The design studio Envisions collaborated to create a recycled textile from used clothing, which is typically considered unsuitable for recycling. The challenge was to produce high-quality yarn from substantial textile waste streams, which often end up as poorly performing insulation, being burned, or disposed of in landfills. Envisions took on the task of transforming this yarn into captivating high-performance textiles.

The obtained yarn had a greyish-aubergine hue and was composed of a blend of recycled post-consumer fibers. Nonetheless, the designers used it to create a range of textiles with different textures, patterns, and color palettes. To achieve this, they introduced colored yarns made from recycled polyester. These were, however, restricted to no more than 20% of the textile, with Imat-uve's yarn consistently used for the weft.

From these textiles, Envisions created an installation that was presented at the Dutch Design Week 2021.

Rē-Collection

During SaloneSatellite, Envisions presented their latest collection of indoor textiles called Rē. This collection used yarns of WYRON truecycled®  from unsorted textile waste combined with recycled polyester and wool. This represents a remarkable advance in sustainable textiles and uses state-of-the-art digital design methods in weaving. The collection included distinctive patterns and sleek designs that merge the digital and physical worlds as they increasingly intertwine. The concepts showed different uses and left room for individual interpretation. The versatile textiles are suitable for both furniture and interior design.

All in all, Rē marked a fresh direction in the design and development of home textiles, reflecting both a commitment to sustainability and the growing influence of digital tools in the design field.
