BEYOND THE BINARY X CYCLO
CYCLO® recycled fibers are used to produce our Tshirts
The textile industry places a heavy burden on our planet’s resources. We believe that there is a different way of doing things, one that reduces our industry’s environmental footprint and makes the most of the limited resources available. We want to avoid valuable, dyed cotton from going to waste. That is why we mechanically recycle the textile waste from the garment manufacturers in Bangladesh into new fibers and yarns, without using water, chemicals or dyes.
BEYOND THE BINARY X PUBOS
100% France manufacturing for our prints.
All your products are carefully printed, marked and embroidered in PUBOS workshops in France.
Their screen printing worskhop has choosed to work with OEKO TEX CERTIFIED rutlands inks.
Ink is one of the most widely used products in our textile screen printing workshop and it can be harmful, both to our employees and to the environment.
BEYOND THE BINARY X AVL
At Beyond The Binary it’s essential to choose our partners, which is why we have AVL (Apparels Village Limited ) to make our T-shirts.
AVL is certified OEKO-TEX and has obtained the ZEproject 1 star certification (see the explanation of ZEproject below)
