Capsule Collection
made to last
Circular design
A uniquely beautiful and consistently recyclable denim collection of decorative cushions and cooking aprons, awarded the Cradle To Cradle Certified® Gold certificate.
We only settle for the best: This particular Capsule Collection has been awarded Cradle To Cradle Certified® Gold, one of the most stringent certifications for circular products. The label requires us to meet comprehensive social and ecological criteria throughout the entire production process, from the cultivation of the raw material to the use of the sewing thread and the finishing of the textile. At the end of its service life, the product must be able to be returned to the biological cycle without being contaminated.
Circular decorative cushions
A common cause
It was only with the help of Circular Clothing‘s fellow partners that we were able to take a decisive step towards sustainable home textiles with made to last.
Circularity is created through close collaboration between all parties involved in the creation process of a product. This is time-consuming, sometimes uncomfortable – but it is also our responsibility to provide to our consumers circular products. This is why we are part of the Circular Clothing cooperative. Together with other partners in the Swiss textile and fashion industry, we want to simplify circular textile production for small businesses and make it more accessible.

A golden praise
The Cradle To Cradle® Certified Gold product seal confirms that a product meets social and ecological criteria.
With Gold status, made to last has earned the second highest of a total of four possible grades at the first attempt. The following points are checked:
- Material health
- Circulatory capability
- Clean air and climate protection
- Responsible use of soil water
- Social justice
Because the criteria are constantly becoming stricter, the seal must be reapplied every two years. Until then, we’ll stick to circularity like a hula hoop: never stop moving!
Denim, Design Dreams
When we thought of circular denim, we didn’t think of pants, shirts or cowboys. We’re exporting the iconic fabric to your living rooms and kitchens.
The really good things come from Italy: pizza, pasta – and the textiles for the made to last collection. The denim is woven, dyed and finished locally. This keeps transportation routes short. The only problem is that the industry – until now – has only wanted to produce large quantities of such a complex textile. But thanks to a collective order together with the Circular Clothing Cooperative, we were finally able to get our hands on this valuable and useful denim.
Beautifully reduced
Reduction is an important tool when it comes to developing and designing circular products. The more accessories, buttons, zippers or ribbons, the more difficult it is to design a sustainable object. That’s why our cushions have a hotel-style closure that’s as simple as it is elegant. But even simplicity conceals challenges: Less obvious elements such as the sewing thread or the label must comply with Cradle To Cradle® standards.
Stylish service
We advocate denim behind and in front of the oven. The aprons from the made to last collection are a real feast for the eyes.
Aprons go through a lot. Even more than your favourite pair of jeans in the dresser, the fabric has to put up with a lot; traces of dough, tomatoes or truffle oil are at some point immortalised on it. In addition to two plain colours (JODIE in ecru and black), our designers have also created the BOB version, which pays homage to these marks in an aesthetic way.

Lemon on denim
Design is born out of the tension between the desire to create, technical feasibility and the demand for functionality. Our designers used high-precision laser technology to create the special surfaces. The motifs – all kinds of fleeting everyday objects – were not printed, but laser-engraved onto the fabric in the case of the MARILYN cushion and the BOB apron. For the fringed dot pattern on the cushion GEENA, the laser cut through the fabric with pinpoint accuracy. The creative realisation of the ephemeral gives the theme of circularity a captivating form.
