Merino Wool from Patagonia

Patagonia is twice the size of France. It has a population of 2 million people mostly located around the coast. It is incredibly unmechanised or polluted. The region is a wilderness of mountains and vast grasslands and an ideal habitat for the merino flocks that we use in our socks. All of our merino wool is certified mulesing-free. It is transported by sea to Europe where the merino wool is treated without the use of any nasty chlorine or bleach to be shrink-resistant. This eco-friendly Bluesign® certified process transforms our wool into a high performance yarn. We use merino wool in our ecoRUN, ecoHIKE and ecoSKI collections.

Our Recycled eco-MELTON™

At TEKO, circularity isn't just a label, it's our entire reason for being. We choose recycled and regenerated materials, and build what we make so it can be recycled or regenerated again at the end of its life. A loop, not a line.

Our eco-Melton™ wool is where you can see it most clearly. Manufactured in Scotland from reclaimed wool and left entirely undyed. Its colour originates from the recycled fibres themselves. It becomes shackets and waistcoats built to be worn hard, repaired rather than thrown away, and recycled at the end of their useable life.

What does this standard mean?

If a textile article carries the STANDARD 100 label, you can be certain that every component of this article has been tested for harmful substances and that the article therefore is harmless for human health. The test is conducted by our independent OEKO-TEX® partner. In many cases the limit values for the STANDARD 100 go beyond national and international requirements. The criteria catalogue is updated at least once a year and expanded with new scientific knowledge or statutory requirements.
