Ever wondered what’s in your elastic? The answer is usually some form of plastic, but not me - I’m different. I am the world's first ecologically sound elastic. I am biodegradable, recyclable, plastic-free, vegan and made of Tencel™ lyocell and natural rubber free from child labour.
All these exceptional characteristics make me super soft and pliable but also very functional. I am of the highest quality and generally have a longer lifespan than conventional elastic. I’m just better.
