Why Jute is awesome

Jute is one of the world’s most eco-friendly fibres to produce. That’s because it’s completely biodegradable, it absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen (even faster than trees do), it grows without the use of pesticide or fertiliser, can enhance the fertility of the soil it grows in and it doesn’t release microfibres, reducing the pollution of waterways. It’s not only eco-friendly but sustainable.

What Makes Jute Sustainable?

Many factors, like its ability to reach maturity in less than 6 months, meaning that it requires less land to grow. There’s no need to encroach upon wilderness and natural habitats thanks to its efficiency of growth, it needs little intervention to grow and replenish. Also, it relies on natural rainfall, needing less water to survive than cotton.

Can Jute be recycled?

100% it can be recycled. Besides using the same fibres of a product to build another one, you can grab your jute goods like mats, bags and rugs that are too old to use anymore and turn them into compost for the garden, your plants will be really grateful. As you can see, jute is highly environmentally friendly.
