OUR MILL

EST. 1871

Our mill isn't your run-of-the-mill operation (see what we did there) – it's a living legacy, pulsating with the dedication of generations. Nestled in Burnley, Lancashire, a place where there were once more looms than there were people, our family-owned establishment has woven fabrics for over 150 years. As tides shifted in the industry, our mill didn't miss a beat. While others faded, we persisted, steadfastly weaving through challenges.Through our resilience, we've not only sustained our craft but also upheld the livelihoods of our local community, keeping the spirit of textile manufacturing alive and thriving. 

Unravelling Recycled Cotton

01

TEXTILE COLLECTION

Our journey begins by collecting post-production cotton waste, such as surplus fabric from garment manufacturing or offcuts from the pattern-making process. Instead of wasting this valuable material, we give it new purpose and meaning.

02

SORTING & PREPARATION

Our recycling experts carefully sort through the collected garments, removing non-cotton elements like zippers or buttons, and arranging them by colour. These fabric pieces are then prepared for the transformation process.

03

BREAKING DOWN THE FIBRES

Enter the magic! The prepared garments undergo a state-of-the-art process to break down the cotton fibres into their raw form. This step is crucial to create pristine, high-quality recycled cotton.

04

SPINNING A NEW YARN

 Once the fibres are transformed, they're spun into new yarns, ready to weave the story of your next snug blanket. Each yarn carries the tales of the recycled garments it originated from – a tale of sustainability and style.

05

THE START OF A NEW BLANKET

Our skilled artisans weave the new yarns into our sumptuous blankets, ensuring the perfect blend of comfort and conscience. The outcome?

 

A stunning, eco-friendly masterpiece tailored just for you!

Join the battle against textile waste!

Did you know?

Approximately 300,000 tonnes of clothing and textiles are discarded annually in the UK. Shockingly, nearly 80% of this ends up in landfills or incinerators. Play your part by ensuring that your home textiles, as well as clothing, find new life through recycling or repurposing rather than contributing to waste!
