The Unwinding Story
At the moment 99% of the world wide garment industry uses fresh polyester threads to stitch their clothing.
Even most GOTS certified organic clothing still uses polyester stitching thread.
Eco-Threads Project
Earth:Rise is introducing clothing stitched with
SENSA GREEN threads.
We have our
PIONEER PIECE through the sales of which we aim to raise funds that all of the
stitching in all Earth:Rise clothes can become Eco-Cert
and Bio-Degradeable. From there we want to inspire other brands to do the same.
Mission
Sometimes it is the little things that go overlooked. But these little things that are literally holding together the trousers... For the whole world.
"The washing and disposal of polyester contributes to a significant amount of water pollution in terms of heavy metals, toxic chemicals, and plastic pollution (in the form of microplastics)."
CFDA, Materials-Index.
We see an evolution where the garment industry moves over to using stitching threads made from ecologically unharmful fibers. In both production and degrading stages of the journey.
Vision
More ecologically friendly threads ARE available. Where there is a demand, Step by step more will become available. Currently they seem out of the price reach of most producers, however if we put together our demand, by making a sustainable collective choice for ecological made, biodegradable threads, then the supply will rise and the price will fall into balance.
​
By Producing clothing that is targeted on this mission, we use profits from its sales to be able to invest in further ecological threads and not only explore, but eventually be able to be a demand within the thread production market.
Active Pioneer Piece
Unisex Twin Stags Hoody
We launched our Eco Threads Project in 2024 with our Pioneer Piece. Two white stags, representing the connective power of natue (and supportive kingliness as opposed to dominant authority) are stitched onto the back using Eco-Cert embroidery thread.
