THE ERTAH DAY
Earth Day is the name used to refer to the day when we celebrate the environment and the preservation of planet Earth. The United Nations celebrates this day every year, one month and one day after the spring equinox, on 22 April.
It was established on 22 April 1970 to highlight the need for conservation of the Earth's natural resources. As a university movement, over time Earth Day has become an educational and informative event. Ecological groups use it as an opportunity to evaluate the planet's challenges: the pollution of air, water and soil, the destruction of ecosystems, the thousands of plants and animal species that are disappearing, and the depletion of non-renewable resources. They insist on solutions to eliminate the negative effects of human activities; these solutions include recycling materials, conserving natural resources such as oil and fossil gases, banning the use of harmful chemicals, halting the destruction of key habitats such as wetlands, and protecting endangered species.
MYAR under the umbrella of Upcycling is sensible to the global overproductions. That’s why no raw material is produced, just repurpose of existing deadstock and used garments.
PACKAGING
Our packaging bag is made of 97% vegetable fibre (beetroot or sugar cane). The only reason this does not reach 100% is because it is manufactured using machines that usually process plastic which may leave small traces behind. The raw material is completely petrol-free and fossil substance-free. We ask you to always be careful not to dispose of it in the environment, but for safety we have added an additive that makes it completely biodegradable within 48 months.
MYAR is committed every day to selecting products that do not pollute the planet.
HANGTAG
MYAR commitment is to bring back to life past used military garments that have been stocked for long time in darkened warehouse, bringing back the light in the present time, for a second life in a civil environment.
The up-cycling process involving MYAR is not only an aesthetic intervention but also a process of historical knowledge
This process of customization is also witnessed by a small white cloth sachet containing scraps of fabrics: a part of the past of this garment, which has been modified from the original to be worn today for the future coming.
FABRIC
Applied on a selected range of fabrics, ReLiveTex certifies that they have been removed from devaluation processes (landfill or incinerator) and promoted to new uses as required by the objectives expressed by the Circular Economy Package of the European Union (directive 2018/851).
ReLiveTex is a type II environmental assertion congruent with the provisions of ISO 14021 – point 7.8.1.1 C. and obtained after an inspection audit carried out by Centrocot spa.
Choosing fabrics marked with the ReLiveTex logo allows you to characterize your collection in terms of sustainability.
