Schoeller – Innovation with Respect for Nature

The Austrian company Schoeller is renowned for its technological firsts and consistent commitment to environmental protection. Some of its most notable milestones include:

• EXP (EX-Pollution) – the world’s first chlorine-free washable wool yarns, meeting the strictest international environmental standards, including bluesign® APPROVED.

• Aramid fibre dyeing – Schoeller was the first spinning mill in the world to successfully dye para-aramid and meta-aramid fibres after extrusion, highly technical materials typically used in protective clothing.

• Bright and white wool dyeing – Schoeller was also the first to achieve vivid colours and pure white dyeing on wool without the use of aggressive chemicals, previously considered nearly impossible.

bluesign® APPROVED – Certification for a Sustainable Future

bluesign® is one of the world’s most stringent standards for ecological and safe textile production. The bluesign® APPROVED certification guarantees:

• Minimal environmental impact throughout the entire production chain – from raw material to finished product,

• Safe and non-toxic material composition,

• Protection of workers, consumers, and the environment.

KAMA’s partnership with Schoeller reflects a deep commitment to responsible business practices, without compromising on quality, performance, or environmental values.

Since 1996, KAMA has exclusively processed yarns from Schoeller the Spinning Group. Schoeller is an innovative manufacturer with a number of firsts in its field – it was the first spinning mill in the world to offer under the EXP label wool yarns with chlorine-free wool treatment for washing, meeting the world's strictest ecological standard bluesign® and was also the first in the world to master the dyeing of para-aramids and meta-aramids after spinning or dyeing bright colors and pure (laundry) white on wool!
