REPRODUCTION PROGRAM
NC PRODUCTS recycles fiber materials from old denim pants and sewing scraps from our factories to manufacture our products. We use the cutting scrap recycling technology "L∞PLUS (Looplus)," developed by Kurabo, a major textile manufacturer based in Kurashiki City, Okayama. This technology involves carding unwanted denim pants and scraps back into cotton, spinning them into yarn, and weaving them into fabric, thereby supporting sustainable denim production.
