Embrace Sustainability
In today's world, sustainability is more than a trend—it's a necessity. At West Eden, we are dedicated to promoting Eco-friendly practices. We're thrilled to announce the launch of our newest hemp apparel line, marking a significant step towards a more sustainable future.
Why Hemp?
Hemp stands out as the most sustainable fabric available today. Derived from the fibers of the Cannabis sativa plant, hemp boasts a range of Eco-friendly attributes that make it superior to conventional fabrics like polyester and even cotton.
Here’s why:
- Eco-Friendly Growth: Hemp cultivation requires no pesticides or herbicides, thanks to its natural resistance to pests and diseases. It also grows rapidly and needs no irrigation, conserving precious water resources.
- Biodegradable and Recyclable: Hemp is 100% biodegradable and recyclable, leaving no harmful residue behind.
-
Durability: Known for its strength, hemp fabric is resistant to mold, mildew, and other microbes. It outlasts cotton by three times, making it a long-lasting option for various textiles.
The Problem with Polyester
Most apparel and other materials are typically made from polyester, a synthetic fabric notorious for its environmental impact. Polyester releases micro-plastics into the air and water, posing a threat to nature and human health. This "exhaust" of plastic is why West Eden is committed to finding sustainable alternatives.
A Step Back in Time
Historically, hemp was a staple in textile production, valued for its durability and versatility. It was widely used until changes in legislation, driven by confusion between hemp and its psychoactive cousin marijuana, led to a decline in its popularity. Unlike marijuana, hemp contains almost no THC, making it a safe and legal option for fabric production.
A Resurgence in Popularity
Today, hemp is experiencing a resurgence in popularity, particularly in markets like China and the United States. It’s gaining recognition not only for its sustainability but also for its modern applications in interior design and the fashion industry, one of the world’s biggest polluters.
