Recycled Round Neck Sweatshirt - Mountaineer

The recycled round-neck “Montagnard” sweatshirt: the sweater you won’t be able to live without!

As you know, the media constantly tell us about the harmful impact of the textile industry on the planet. We only remember a few words: pollution, high energy balance, significant carbon footprint... At Canigó, the product collections want to go against the grain of this sad notoriety. The products are there to highlight nature while doing good for the planet we celebrate. So how do we make our products less polluting?

This "Montagnard" round-neck sweatshirt is, for example, a model that clearly illustrates Canigó's commitment: quality products designed to last while respecting the planet. Through it, we favor materials that are more respectful of the planet. How Can this sweatshirt be eco-responsible? It is through its composition that change is made.

Woven from recycled cotton and polyester , the "Montagnard" round-neck sweatshirt benefits from the GRS - Global Recycled Standard - certificate issued by Ecocert. Thanks to this recycled composition, its environmental impact is much less harmful than that of conventional models. In fact, the manufacture of clothing from recycled materials requires less water and energy since existing materials only need to be transformed.

Beyond reduced energy costs, this sweatshirt also allows us to fight against textile waste on our own scale. Many clothes pile up in illegal landfills, making consumers aware of recycled fibers has become a necessity. However, it is important to note that products made from recycled materials may have slight variations in color and composition. This makes each model unique to some extent. Obviously, the quality is not alternating. Quite the contrary: our recycled “Montagnard” sweatshirt is as good quality as conventional sweatshirts. Their interior is made of fleece fabric, very soft and comfortable.

All our recycled crewneck sweatshirts are made from 55% recycled cotton and 45% recycled polyester . Cotton comes from industrial scraps, thus limiting waste production. For polyester, it comes from used clothing and plastic bottles. We estimate that there is on average the equivalent of 11 50cl plastic bottles in a sweatshirt. This composition fully fits our sweatshirt into a circular economy approach, offering consumers the opportunity to make a purchase with less impact on the planet.
