With our popular set of 2 upcycled cushion covers, you can decorate your home with textile in a more sustainable way than buying alternatives made with new materials. We produce all our home textiles by upcycling waste from laundry houses in Denmark. This means we use 70% CO2 and 97% less water to make our products compared to the same product made with brand new materials.
As this product is made with discarded white uniforms, the textiles has been dyed with 100% GOTS certified organic dyes in the EU. The timeless design means it will look great all year round, so you can accessorise your sofa or bed with a good conscience.

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.
