Sustainability at Maqu
We always use the most sustainable and resource-saving of all available options in all work steps.
Maqu evaluates each material individually according to its origin, extraction and application. Ecological, ethical, social and regional aspects are included in the evaluation.
For our collections, we mainly use organically grown and GOTS certified organic cotton and Lyocell/Tencel, whose fibres are based on cellulose obtained from wood, and hemp.
In winter, we offer models made of sheep's and alpaca's wool from traditional sustainable farming. Here, the herds have free run, which avoids the destruction of grasslands and erosion. The animals are naturally part of the shepherd family there and are treated with respect.
