Method and technique
Thela's signature materials are handwoven fabrics created from repurposed plastic waste, such as plastic bags and wrappers. Skilled artisans in India transform this waste into yarn, which is then woven into sheets. This process significantly extends the life of the plastic, contributing to the reduction of landfill waste. In addition to repurposed plastic, Théla uses organic and fairtrade cotton sourced locally for linings, pockets, and straps. They work with certified partners such as Rajlakshmi, an organic cotton mill, to ensure both ethical sourcing and minimal environmental impact. Théla’s products are crafted by hand , supporting local artisan communities. This production method, coupled with low-waste cutting techniques, ensures minimal environmental impact and provides fair wages to workers. The brand’s designs focus on zero waste, with products made from materials that are precisely the size needed, reducing waste. They also guarantee that no animal products or harmful synthetic alternatives are used, maintaining a strictly vegan range. Théla emphasizes the importance of circularity in its products, encouraging customers to return their products for responsible recycling or disposal at the end of their life. This initiative ensures the continued sustainability of the materials used.
