The Nettle-Ramie fiber is elastic, resists twisting, and unlike other fibers its strength increases over time. Releases the same delicacy and lightness of silk. The fiber is long, shiny and uniform; it also possesses antistatic properties.
Nettle-ramie is today a sought-after fiber because it is sustainable, the plant (Boehmeria nivea) is virtuous, it grows spontaneously under different latitudes; unlike cotton (a tropical plant only) it does not need water, fertilizers or pesticides. It is 100% biodegradable.
The fabric is produced in Italy using yarns through mechanical processing without undergoing chemical processes that modify its structure.
