Saredo is a company based in NARA in Japan where you will find old temples and shrines. It’s a beautiful historical area. The company has been producing textile fibers for a long time. 10 years ago, Mr. & Mrs Kayazawa launched new yarn lines to complement their well-designed socks and other garments. Saredo is very aware of sustainable products. All of their cotton fibers/yarns are made with ‘Ochiwata’ which is unused fallen virgin cotton occurring in the process of producing cotton fibers.
Ochiwata - When the factory makes cotton fibers, the cotton is combed to make it smoother and even. Fallen cotton occurs from this process. Saredo uses these fallen cotton pieces - ‘Ochiwata’ to make their sustainable yarn.
