Cupro is a “regenerated cellulose” fibre made from cotton waste. It’s made using the teeny tiny silky cotton fibres, known as linter, that stick out of the cottonseed and are too small to spin.

RESOURCES
Cupro is a regenerated cellulose fiber made from cotton linter, a by-product of cotton seeds, producing a silky, plant-based fabric similar to TENCEL Lyocell or modal.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Cupro repurposes cotton waste, utilizes a controlled chemical process, and is evaluated through a life cycle sustainability index that encompasses resources, manufacturing, transportation, usage, and end-of-life considerations, with a focus on biodegradability and recyclability.

HUMAN HEALTH

Manufactured with socially and environmentally conscious partners, Cupro fabrics are safe to handle, free of harmful residues, durable, and non-microplastic-releasing during use.

SOCIAL EQUITY

Cupro supports ethical manufacturing practices, prioritizes domestic supply chains to reduce carbon footprints, and contributes to carbon offset and forest conservation initiatives.
