ReviWool®: the new low-impact virgin wool

Manteco® celebrates 80 years at Première Vision Paris!

The leading Italian company in premium textiles and the wool circular economy since 1943 brought the "Manteco® Circular Economy Experience" to the Première Vision Paris show, from July 4 to 6, 2023.

Visitors discovered a circular, low-impact process for creating textiles.

The family-owned company, particularly committed to circular fashion, has developed a number of eco-responsible projects, including its own sustainable wool brands: MWool®, a recycled wool, and most recently ReviWool®, a new high-end virgin wool with low environmental impact, a project they presented at the Première Vision Paris trade show in early July.

ReviWool® is an extra-fine, recyclable wool that perfectly represents their zero-waste philosophy. It is produced responsibly, from fibers lost during the virgin wool purification process. This new wool is also recyclable at the end of its life.

Manteco® assures us that ReviWool® has all the natural characteristics of virgin wool: "it is soft, breathable, elastic, crease-resistant, odor- and stain-resistant, thermo-regulating, fire- and UV-resistant".

ReviWool® complies with ISO 14025:2006.

By definition: ISO 14025:2006 establishes the principles and procedures for the development of Type III environmental declarations and corresponding programs. It specifically establishes the use of the ISO 14040 series of standards for the development of Type III environmental declarations and corresponding programs.

ReviWool® wool has a 65.6% reduced impact on climate change, a 65.5% reduced impact on water use and a 65.6% reduced impact on total energy consumption.

ReviWool® also complies with the Manteco® animal welfare standard, in line with ITWO (International Wool Textile Organization) guidelines. ReviWool® can also be RWS (Responsible Wool Standard) certified: a voluntary standard covering the welfare of sheep and the management of the land on which they graze.
