The 1083 hat and scarf in recycled firefighter sweaters!
Thanks to several months of research with the Filature du Parc, the Manufacture Regain and the Firemen, the eco-responsible brand 1083 presents its hat and scarf made in Tarn and made up of 65% recycled firefighters' sweaters.
Eco-designed, they are recyclable: once worn, it is possible to drop them off in a Le Relais terminal for recycling.
From recycling the sweaters to the final design of the “Volunteer” scarf and hat, 1083 has worked with various workshops located in the Tarn.
The brand has chosen to keep the navy hue, the original color of firefighters' sweaters for its two models.
Due to recycling, 1083 reduced the need for dyeing by 70%, the firefighters' sweaters were already blue, only the 30% of polyamide added to the clothing was dyed.
Out of a desire to enter the circular economy, this hat and scarf have been designed to be recyclable.
