Orta Anadolu

Vibrant Red

Volcanic ash is not uncommon in beauty products– it is known as Mother Nature’s skin purifier after all,and used as an exfoliator for example – but it is far less common in the textile industry. Orta Anadolu are set to change that with their BIOWARE denim which is enriched with mineralised volcanic ash to create an odour absorbing effect. This technology captures and absorbs odour compounds that would normally pass through the fabric, neutralising bad bacteria while retaining the helpful bacteria that common deodorisers, which contain harsh substances, normally eliminate. This leads to a more environmentally friendly product that is better for the user’s skin.

Infused with minerals, Orta state that BIOCHARGE is medically proven to refresh muscles, relieve muscle tension and optimise body balance.

Holland & Sherry

- Argento series of Super 200 -

As early as 3,000 years ago, human tempered precious metals like gold and silver repeatedly and cut slices into banding shapes used in clothes manufacturing.
