Natural origin eco-fibre

Natural fibres are subdivided into two classifications animal (protein) fibres and plant (cellulose) fibres. 

As with all organic fibres, certification may apply only to the way the fibre is grown, or to the full production process. 

Conventional silk is derived from silkworms that feed largely on mulberry leaves, usually indoors in large trays. This type of silk is called cultivated and is produced on large, industrial mn farms. Cultivation includes the boiling of the cocoon with the worm inside in order to kill the worm before it becomes a moth and emerges from the cocoon.
