Rice waste fibre is made from the by-products of rice harvesting: the straw and husks left once the grain is gathered. Rice is one of the world's biggest crops, so its leftovers are a large and largely untapped fibre source.

Rethinking the rice field
Every rice harvest leaves behind straw and husks, and in many regions the straw is burned in the fields, polluting the air. Turning those by-products into textile fibre gives them value and keeps them from going up in smoke.
How it's made
Straw and husks are collected and processed to extract usable fibre, which is usually blended with other sustainable fibres before being spun into yarn.
What it's made of
Made from the by-products of rice harvesting, usually blended with other sustainable fibers.
How it feels
Textured and breathable, with moisture-wicking abilities. Naturally biodegradable.
Where it works
Suitable for Apparel, Home Textiles, and eco-conscious Accessories.
Caring for it
Machine wash cold. Air dry. Avoid bleach.
Certification
OEKO-TEX® certified.
