In mid-September, Okaïdi, a children’s clothing brand, put a cotton t-shirt on the shelves, consisting of 60% recycled fibre, derived from used clothing. The rest is virgin cotton, from organic farming, to give strength, because recycled fibre breaks easily. This level of recycled fibre is a technical achievement. It is the result of three years of R&D work in the mechanical recycling demonstrator of CETI (European Centre for Innovative Textiles).
