Responsibility

is a core value for us.

While sustainability is inherently positive, mere discussions about it are insufficient. In the textile industry, ecological and ethical actions are often not prioritized. Fast fashion drives prices down, but at the expense of deteriorating working conditions. For us, being responsible means committing to honest production practices, even if this makes our products more expensive and challenges profitability.

Andreas Schmidt states: “A FRAAS scarf embodies the red thread. This isn't just the thread we knit, intertwine, or weave; it also represents our commitment to ecological and ethical considerations. We care deeply about our environment, our employees, and, of course, our customers. Our aim is to provide our customers with a piece of textile confidence that complements their outfits.”

We cherish the precious gifts of nature, such as clean water and rich inspiration.

In return, we contribute to its well-being, exemplified by our Sustainability Edition.

Sustainably beautiful

THE FRAAS SUSTAINABILITY EDITION

Our sustainable collection features recycled materials (post-consumer) and sources from renewable and sustainable origins, transforming them into new accessories. Each sustainability scarf and shawl contributes to a more beautiful world. Every piece crafted from recycled fibers not only conserves resources and reduces waste but also offers a unique feel-good factor when worn. We utilize materials like recycled polyester, recycled cotton, recycled wool, recycled viscose, FSC-certified viscose, Lyocell (Tencel), and more.

Beauty is reborn here again and again

From meticulously planned sustainable production to innovative recycling solutions, responsible action has been integral to our ethos for many years. Sustainability not only resonates with us; it also enhances our aesthetic appeal.

Remarkable transformation: Just as caterpillars evolve into stunning butterflies, we convert empty PET bottles into vibrant fabric. Recycled polyester production saves up to 53% energy compared to traditional methods and can be reused.

Revitalizing the old: Have you considered what happens to your favorite sweater after its prime? It may become a scarf. We give wool and cashmere a second life by separating them by color, breaking them down into fibers, and spinning them into new yarn.

Maximizing leftovers: Every T-shirt is crafted from leftover fabric. What happens to these remnants? We repurpose them as the foundation for new fashion. For instance, cotton is sorted by color, shredded, and processed into yarn for fresh fabric.

Moreover, our commitment extends beyond our products to our employees. Worldwide independent audits and certifications (industrial and commercial) validate our practices. While we value high performance and expertise, we also recognize that job satisfaction and appreciation are essential for creating the perfect scarf, just as much as selecting quality raw materials.
