Our Process

Handcrafting for the future.

Théla works with plastic waste – discarded plastic carry bags, garbage bags, food packaging wrappers and large sheets used in agriculture – to handcraft our circular fabrics.

From Waste to Yarn...

From discarded plastic to beautiful, functional products - collecting

Retrieving

Discarded plastic is collected locally from garbage bins, streets and waste collection points.

From discarded plastic to beautiful, functional products - washing

Washing & Drying

They are then washed, removing all the stains and hung on a line or laid flat to dry.

Théla Process - cutting the plastic bags into yarn

Cutting & Balling

The clean plastic is cut by hand into yarn and wound into balls.
