The Bêta, Alta, Velcro and Kids collections are made from maize-based material, one of the most innovative and durable plant-based alternatives.

Manufacturing process
The maize used comes from non-food crops, which therefore does not divert food resources from human or animal supply chains. Once harvested, the maize undergoes fermentation to extract dextrose, a process that requires no petrochemical products. The extracted dextrose is used to create a polymer that is blended with a small quantity of PU to produce a thick, durable fibre.
