What is a recycled blanket and why should you have one?
A recycled blanket is a textile piece made from previously used and recovered textile products, scraps, materials or fibres, such as wool fibres, cotton or even recycled plastic bottles.
Through a process of recycling and recovery, new textile fibres are obtained that take on a new life in the form of soft, cosy and high quality blankets, ready to dress your home with warmth and style, but, above all, with a great load of environmental awareness.
By opting for products made from recycled materials, you help reduce waste and contribute to a circular economy model, where products are not discarded after a single use, thus reducing the amount of textile waste in landfills and avoiding CO2 emissions caused by the burning of such waste.
In a world increasingly aware of the importance of caring for the environment, eco-blankets made from recycled materials represent a simple but impactful choice for a more eco-responsible home.
Recycled materials for eco-blankets: from waste to maximum comfort and design
Our blankets are made from 100% high quality recycled materials that come from controlled and sustainable recycling processes.
These materials come mainly from post-consumer textile waste and garments that after reaching the end of their useful life (such as T-shirts, trousers, towels, rags, etc.) are recovered. It is then when, through a series of mechanical processes, new fibres are obtained to make new garments.
From the recycling of plastic bottles and by means of a different mechanical process, an acrylic yarn with excellent properties is obtained to weave the warp of the blanket.
To guarantee the origin of the recycled materials of our blankets and cushions, they are made in workshops that have GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certification. This certificate is a guarantee of the quantity and origin of the recycled materials used in production.
Compositions of our blankets
After the recycling process to which waste and textile garments are subjected to obtain new yarn, we obtain new fibres from natural materials such as cotton or wool that are shorter than the original fibres.
In order to improve the quality of the final recycled yarn, it is necessary to mix these fibres with other fibres of greater length that substantially improve their technical characteristics and mechanical properties such as resistance, tenacity or elasticity.
For the production of our blankets we use the following compositions:
- Recycled Wool Blankets (80% Acrylic 20% Wool / 100% Recycled Fibres): by mixing top quality recycled wool with acrylic fibres we obtain a fine, very warm blanket with superior softness.
- RecycledCotton Blankets (70% Cotton 30% Acrylic / 100% Recycled Fibres): by blending recycled cotton with acrylic fibres we obtain thick, warm blankets with extra softness.
Benefits of recycled blankets
One of Blankets Of The World's major environmental commitments is to use recycled materials in the manufacture of our premium blankets.
This reduces the amount of textile waste going to landfill and avoids the burning of this waste , saving the emission of large amounts of CO2.
Furthermore, by not having to grow new crops to obtain textile fibres, we avoid the use of pesticides and chemical products that seriously pollute the environment, we substantially reduce the consumption of water and energy derived from conventional crops and we reserve fertile soil for other more necessary crops.
On the other hand, by not having to use dyes to dye the recycled yarns (the final colour is obtained only by combining the colours of the mechanically recovered products) , we avoid the use of chemicals and save large amounts of water.
In this way, each of our recycled blankets has the lowest possible environmental impact compared to conventional textile products, making them the most environmentally friendly and sustainable blankets on the market.
Versatility of our recycled blanket collection
Our blanket collection is designed to help you find the blanket that best suits your needs. You will find in our catalogue a wide range of sofa blankets, bed blankets, yoga blankets or picnic blankets among others.
Their design and functionality make them the ideal choice for any space in your home and they are also the perfect gift for those who value sustainability and style.
Designs and textures: recycled blankets to suit all tastes
Our collection of blankets offers a variety of designs and textures to suit any style of home. From soft, neutral tones ideal for minimalist décor, to bright colours and ethnic patterns for an exotic touch.
American Indian blankets, for example, are an excellent choice for those looking for a rustic or bohemian aesthetic, with striped details and tribal motifs that evoke tradition and culture. If you prefer a more neutral look, you will find among our range, blankets in earth tones and natural textures with simpler, more traditional designs that combine perfectly with other sustainable decorative elements, such as rugs, plaids and matching cushions or a decorative cushion cover.
In terms of thickness and textures you will also find a great variety, from a thick wool blanket to thin blankets ideal for creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
The versatility in the design of sustainable blankets means that everyone can find a blanket to suit their personal taste and home décor.
Caring for your recycled blanket: practical tips
Caring for your blanket is simple and will allow you to maintain its softness and quality over time. Our blankets can be washed at home with a gentle cold water cycle, and are best left to air dry to preserve their fibres. Occasional airing is recommended to keep them fresh.
If you use your recycled blanket as a picnic blanket or place it in a space exposed to dust, it is ideal to give it a gentle shake every so often. This keeps the fibres in good condition and prevents premature wear and tear.
With this simple care, your eco-blanket will remain a durable and cosy piece of furniture in your home.
