Recycled Fabrics
Here at Dotmagnus, we believe the most environmentally friendly brick is the one left in the wall. But what’s the most sustainable isn’t necessarily the best. So we went out to find the best product that’s produced in the most sustainable way. And we are proud to bring you our recycled fabrics
Our commitment to reducing waste in Interior Design has led us to work with mills committed to the same cause we are, causing the least possible environmental impact in production while maintaining quality of design and durability.
Utilising the unique Recover + Closed-Loop program, Dotmagnus and our mills are able to do just that for Fashion and Interior environments.
