Zero impact: sustainability is our choice
Preserving the natural habitat through actions that also guarantee the well-being of people and animals is part of our approach to work and life
Here at Tollegno 1900, we work to maintain a constant balance between production efficiency and respect for the environment, creating the basis for a circular economy that makes sustainability, intelligent recycling and sensible reuse its strong points.
We constantly invest in systems and machinery to keep our impact on the habitat under control and, at the same time, preserve the well-being and health of our human resources.
We choose partners who share our same philosophy of care for the ecosystem, making rigorous and scrupulous choices.
We certify our commitment with certificates that show for real how much the production and processing of our yarns comply with precise eco-friendly regulations.
Because respect for the environment means being responsible for our actions and far-sighted in implementing initiatives capable of generating value.

supply chain
Certified by Control Union
CUC-1259229
NATIVA: The NATIVA™ protocol certifies every step of the supply chain, from farm to brand, and ensures: animal welfare, land/environment management and corporate social responsibility
CB-GOTS-CUC-03-1259229
GOTS (GLOBAL ORGANIC TEXTILE STANDARD): GOTS is the worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibres, including ecological and social criteria, backed up by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain.
GOTS products are labelled separately
Mulesing free: Mulesing is a surgical practice used on sheep farms that involves the removal of a portion of skin from the perianal area of animals in order to protect them from infectious diseases transmitted by certain fly larvae. This practice, still quite common among Australian producers, is invasive and very painful. Some environmental associations have carried out awareness-raising campaigns in order to protect the animals, also offering various alternatives to this problem. For this reason, many manufacturers declare that they only use wool from farms that guarantee certain animal welfare standards.
Quality management and innovation

Traceable to be recognisable
Since 2015 we have been collaborating with the Beaufront estate which, located in Tasmania, is well known not only for its endless pastures, whose biodiversity is promoted by verifying the quality of the land and plants so that their properties meet the highest standards, but also for the commitment to pursue animal welfare. This is confirmed by its RWS and mulesing-free wool certifications: in fact, a team of professional shearers ensures that all phases of wool harvesting are conducted in an ethical manner, guaranteeing a habitat for the sheep characterized by total absence of stress. The innovative Sheep to shop project was born from the partnership with the estate, a personalized service that makes the entire production process traceable and certified, starting from the breeding of the animals, and now also gives the opportunity to visit selected farms for the development of a highly exclusive production.
