Datini sustainably transforms post-consumer wool into high-quality recycled fibers, producing durable, versatile wool products while minimizing environmental impact.
A Circular Approach to Fashion Through Our Recycling Process
Our wool recycling journey begins with the careful collection of post-consumer wool waste. Each stage in our process transforms discarded textiles into high-quality recycled fibers, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable practices. By repurposing these materials, we minimize waste and contribute to a more circular economy. This journey ensures that recycled wool retains its quality while reducing the impact on natural resources and the environment.
Pillars Of The Recycle Structure
Our wool recycling process is grounded in three essential pillars, each supporting the quality and eco-friendly impact of our final products.
Quality Raw Materials
We start with premium post-consumer wool waste, ensuring only the best materials are selected for transformation.
Repurposed Wool Fibers
Using innovative technology, we convert discarded wool into sustainable fibers, helping reduce resource demand and pollution.
Eco-Friendly Production
Our zero-kilometer production approach minimizes our carbon footprint, utilizing local resources to support environmental responsibility.

Process
We believe wool is a gift to us from nature; thus, we make sure that we save it from becoming waste and convert it into its original natural form to be used again.
Step One
Collection
Gathering post-consumer waste like used wool sweaters, wool coats, pants, and fabric scraps for recycling.
Step Two
Sorting
Separating textiles by material (wool, cotton, synthetics) and color to streamline later stages in processing.
Step Three
Cleaning
Removing contaminants, including labels, buttons, and zippers, to ensure a clean, pure fiber base.
Step Four
Shredding
Cutting and tearing textiles into small pieces, releasing fibers for further processing and transformation.
Step Five
Carding
Aligning fibers in the same direction produces a continuous, rope-like strand called a sliver.
Step Six
Spinning
Twisting fibers together to create yarn, adjusting thickness and texture by varying fiber blends.
Step Seven
Weaving or Knitting
Using recycled yarn to form fabrics, enabling a range of textures and patterns based on design needs.
Materials for Recycling
Our journey begins by sourcing high-quality wool waste, like used sweaters, coats, and fabric scraps, to repurpose.
Aligning the Fibers
Fibers are aligned for consistency, enhancing the strength and quality of the recycled wool fabric produced.
Crafting Durable Yarn
Fibers are spun into yarn, with texture and thickness adjusted to fit a range of applications and needs.
Final Touches for Quality
Washing, softening, and finishing touches ensure that recycled wool retains its durability, comfort, and quality for versatile use.
