Eco-Tip: Mini Directory of Green Fabrics. We are often asked by readers where to find suppliers of particular eco-materials, so they might join the fray and green their own product. The answer is most likely lurking in our archive of 10,000+ articles, and we would encourage use of the search function to explore these. But on this occasion we will take pity on reader Owen T. and compile a little list of green textiles in one location. Recycled polyester fleece and bodywear fabrics can be sourced from Malden Mills, famous for their Polartec range (though last month the company did file for bankruptcy - they have done this before and survived - we wish them another phoenix-like rise).

Some of the recycled post and pre-consumer fibre they use is Repreve and comes from Unifi of Japan. Unifi also supply Consoltex, who make a organic cotton/nylon blended fabric, called Earth While (cute, huh?). And that is just is a smattering of the green inspired textiles that grace our pixels.
