UNPARALLELED QUALITY
We use Grade 6A Premium Mulberry Silk as our key source of material，skillfully woven using a harmonious blend of time-honoured tradition and modern technology that infuses our fabric with its trademark qualities: a velvety-smooth hand-feel, thickness, durability, and an elegant matte finish with rich lustre. "silk" is a natural fiber also known as the "Queen of Fibers" that are naturally produced and environmentally sustainable which comes from nature and goes back to nature.
SUSTAINABLE LUXURY
Silk is an ancient, natural fibre, famous for its distinctive attributes such as elegance, class, comfort and beauty benefits. Silk is the only natural filament fibre comprised of natural proteins (18 amino acids). A single filament from the same cocoon often measures up to 1 kilometre.When considering a choice of fabric for bedding or clothing, the entire lifecycle should be considered, from soil to soil.We would very much want to inspire people to live a better life and more sustainable lifestyle. Our care for one another and the planet is what drives us. SISILKY, Live Comfortably!
HIGH UTILISATION RATE
Silk production is fully sustainable. It's very efficient with inputs (land, water, resources). Compared to cotton, there is far less impact on land, water and air. it is free from pesticides, toxic chemicals, bleaches, and dyes. Mulberry silk is relatively fewer chemicals and pure silk which is ivory in colour is even free from dyes. Sericulture (silk production) has been used as a model example of AgroEcology by the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organisation) as it's a complete circle with no wastage.
ECO-FRIENDLY PRACTICES
Mulberry trees are grown without pesticides and chemical fertilisers, relying mainly on rainwater. Efficient production processes capture and treat wastewater. Mulberry trees, while producing leaves and fruits, sequester carbon from the air. Their leaves feed silkworms, which later become a delicacy in Asian countries. Leftover mulberry tree stems and foliage are fed to cattle, waste is used as fertiliser, lower quality silk is used as duvet filling, and Sericin is recovered from wastewater for use in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals. This sustainable cycle makes silk far superior to alternatives such as cotton, rayon, and polyester.
REDUCED CARBON IMPACT
Silk = 34kg CO2 per tonne of fabric.
When measuring textile production and its carbon impact, silk production has 814x less carbon emissions than cotton, 1360x less than wool and 620x less than polyester.
MINIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Silk has a lower environmental and ethical impact than other fibres. Two examples are below, and you can read a more thorough review of textile alternatives here:
Mayfairsilk is natural and biodegradable at end of life.
- Wool production generates methane from sheep and deforestation for grazing, leading to soil salinity, erosion, decreased biodiversity, and a large carbon footprint.
- Cotton requires pesticides, fertilisers, processing chemicals, dyes, and bleaches, which often pollute water, soil, and land, while also having a high carbon footprint.
