These irregularities are the result of human involvement in the process and add to the finished product's charm while ensuring you have a one-of-a-kind piece.

Details:

reCharkha upcycles waste such as polybags, plastic bags, biscuit or wafer wrappers, and other multi-layered packaging, using a traditional charkha (spindle) and handloom to weave into fabric. The upcycled, handwoven fabric is then designed and hand-tailored into fashion accessories, daily utility products and home decor products for conscious consumers located all over the world. 

reCharkha employs rural men and women and each item creates job opportunities for marginalised communities, tribal women, artisans and waste pickers while routing plastic waste away from landfills.

Care:

  • Do not wash them in the washing machine
  • Do not wring the product
  • Do not use bleach
  • Do not iron
  • Do not keep/dry in harsh sunlight
  • Keep away from extreme heat like dryers, blowers, heaters, etc.
