WHAT IS IT?
Petit Pli designed a fabric that grows with a child from birth until their first birthday or from 9 months to 4 years. The textile is made from recycled content and can easily be recycled since it is produced with a mono-fiber construction. In addition, their manufacturer uses solar energy to power their facility. Their aim is also to educate youngsters about circularity from an early age.
HOW IS IT MADE?
The fabric is made from recycled content and follows a foldable structure that can be extended to fit a child still when it grows. Since it’s a mono-fiber construction, recycling at the end of life is eased.
USE CASES
Garments for newborns and toddlers up to 4 years old.
