TAKE CARE OF THE WORLD

Contributing to the care of the environment is easy. Sometimes small gestures can be enough.
We at BK are working for a more sustainable world, choosing ecological, Made in Italy and certified yarns. We are committed to offsetting the carbon footprint of our business by planting the necessary trees.

Many other projects are on the way, with the aim of making our planet a better place to live.

OUR YARNS

We rely on certified producers for our ecological yarns

RECYCLED AND RECYCLABE YARNS

Three of our yarns are Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) and Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certified

These standards are assigned to products containing at least 5% pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled material. They recognize the importance of recycling for the growth of a sustainable production and consumption model. The goal is to reduce resource consumption (virgin raw materials, water, and energy).

CERTIFIED DYES

All our yarns are OEKOTEX certified

It is a control system that verifies the presence of toxic substances for humans and the environment in textile products.

ORGANIC COTTONS

Our cottons are GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified

GOTS certifies the use of organic natural fibers (for at least 70%), their traceability along the entire production chain (from harvesting to labeling) and an ecologically and socially responsible production.

CONTROLLED MOHAIR

The mohair contained in our yarns is RMS (Responsible Mohair Standard) certified

RMS (Responsible Mohair Standard) certifies that mohair comes from responsibly managed farms, respecting animal welfare and reducing environmental impact.

100% MULESING FREE WOOL

All our wools are MULESING FREE

Mulesing is an invasive and painful surgical procedure for animals used on some sheep farms to prevent certain infections. Mulesing is prohibited in Europe and our wools come from farms where mulesing is not practiced.

BETTAKNIT’S FOREST

We decided to create our forest of trees, planting the right tree, in the right place, for the right reason, with the right partner.
