Supporting Greenland through design.
This upcycled cushion cover is inspired by the flag of Greenland, interpreted with waste textiles. The bold graphic shape makes it a simple, recognisable addition to the sofa, armchair, or bed.
The cushion cover is made from carefully selected textile waste sourced from Danish laundry houses. All materials are reused in their original colours, giving new life to high-quality textiles that would otherwise be discarded. By upcycling rather than recycling, we keep the fibres intact and reduce textile waste.
Each cushion cover is assembled from existing textile panels, meaning small variations can occur from piece to piece. A durable, functional product made with respect for both the materials and what the design represents.

What is upcycling?
What is upcycling?
Upcycling means that we reuse the parts of the discarded garments that are still in good condition, instead of mechanically or chemically recycling them into new yarn. We manually sort through each item by hand to find the reusable pieces we can upcycle into items such as washcloths, dishcloths, tea towels, cushion covers, foot stools and toiletry bags, amongst other things.
We cut out what is reusable and sew it back together into new home textiles. This is the most environmentally friendly way to handle the waste because very little energy and water is required, in comparison with a recycled product, where the material has to be broken down and often mixed with polyester in order to bind the shorter fibres.
The desire to save as much waste textiles as possible from being burnt up into smoke was how the idea for Amolia came about, so sustainability has been at the heart of what we do from day one. Read more about all the ways we try to be as sustainable as we possibly can.
