Materials
Out of LOVE for OUR PLANET, YOU and OURSELVES, we strongly believe in the need to act in a sustainable environmentally friendly way.
We want to contribute to making fashion circular. We therefore conserve resources by relying on recyclable and reusable materials. We want to continuously develop so that we can always offer you the best possible product.
All our fabrics and components are certified to Oekotex® 100 standard, which means they are free of harmful and toxic chemicals.
SWIMWEAR
TIPI BEACH swimwear is sewn exclusively from Carvico’s high-quality Italian fabric VITA, which is made of 78% ECONYL® regenerated nylon and 22% spandex.
ECONYL® regenerated nylon is obtained from 100% nylon waste. More precisely, ECONYL® consists of post-consumer nylon waste such as fishing nets and carpet lint mixed with pre-consumer nylon waste such as industrial plastics.
Our fabric VITA is also produced in a particularly environmentally friendly way. Emission levels are ten times lower than required by EU legislation, significantly reducing the impact on our environment.
Our Italian fabric manufacturer Carvico uses the latest technologies and recycles the water it uses for porduction several times. More than half of the total water consumption is even recycled and purified in such a way that a return to nature can take place without any problems.
You’ll love our fabric for its versatility and comfort as much as we do. Thanks to its innovative design, it is twice as resistant to chlorine and salt water, as well as sunscreens and oils, than other fabrics. It also offers you a high shape retention and a very high sun protection (UPF 50+).
In order to keep material residues as low as possible, we try to reuse them sensibly, e.g. as ribbons for our H’Tags.
Our swimwear styles are MIX & Match, double layered and reversible.
