The New Denim Project, a third-generation Guatemalan textile mill, champions circular manufacturing by repurposing discarded denim and clothing scraps from local garment factories. They meticulously sort, clean, and transform these remnants into fundamental fibers and then into new yarns. This entire process is free from harmful chemicals and synthetic dyes, conserving precious resources and avoiding synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon, and acrylic. The cottonseed and cotton lint byproducts are used as compost by local coffee growers in Guatemala.
At UPAVIM, we use these eco-responsible fabrics to create Fair Trade certified products. Your purchase from this collection directly supports UPAVIMAs, our school and scholarship programs in Guatemala's outskirts, making it an eco-friendly choice that uplifts local communities and promotes ethical production practices. It's a win-win for the environment and society, all embodied in these extraordinary products.
