"JUNKAN"woolbag (JUNKAN=Circulation)

We say "SDGs" and "sustainable", but what is really super-ecology?

That is the reason for creating a "circulating Wool bag".

Our answer is a wool bag.

1. Made of recycled fabric.
2. Can be recycled again after use. Become a dough.
3. Circulates domestically.
4. It is a natural fiber.

Wool is very good!

• long lasting.
• It has good hygroscopicity, so it is warm in winter and cool in summer.
• Since it has good dyeability, it can be dyed colorfully without using chemicals. It is hard to discolor.
• Since it has elasticity, even if it becomes wrinkled, it will return when it is exposed to steam.
• Hard to burn, low thermal conductivity.
• It suppresses the generation of dirt and odors.

Round and round circulation, the power of wool!

Mechanism that does not become garbage!

• Since it can be recycled, it is free from the garbage problem.
• Since it is a natural fiber, it has nothing to do with the problem of microplastics.
• It has an antibacterial effect and reduces the number of washings.

How friendly is it to the earth by recycling?

<When raising>

• The number of sheep raised in the world is less than 1.1 billion.
• Requires a huge amount of food and water.
• Sheep burp emits methane gas.
• Methane gas has a warming effect more than 20 times that of carbon dioxide.
• It is said that 1.5 trillion liters of methane gas is emitted from livestock (cattle, sheep, etc.) per day.

→ Virgin wool has an environmental burden when raising sheep. By using recycled wool, you can reduce the environmental burden of growing.

<When making threads and fabrics>

• There is plenty of fat and dirt on the wool after cutting.
• The amount of carbon dioxide emitted in the manufacturing process is the highest. (* Carbon dioxide emissions per piece: 1st place wool 23.4kg, 2nd place acrylic 19.8kg, 3rd place viscose 16kg, 4th place cotton 14.9kg)
• staining

→ Recycled wool reduces the amount of carbon dioxide emitted in the manufacturing process by about 80%.

Recycled wool manufacturing process

Each process is packed with more than 50 years of history, craftsmanship, commitment and thoughts in Bishu.

1. Collect used clothing and wool fiber waste
2. Sort by human hands
3. Anti-hair (processed by machine to return to the state of raw hair)
4. Spin (make thread)
5. Weave (make fabric)

The power of Japan!

All processes are done domestically.

The material is 100% cupra (Bemberg), made from the discarded part of the downy part (cotton linter) that grows around the cotton.
