My own eco lifestyle

As Ziboh is based at home, I treat my company and my household as one. We are not perfect, and we have a long way to go, but we are changing our ingrained habits little by little.

Why I don’t offer silk to clients

Silk is natural and biodegradable. It takes dye extremely well, including eco-friendly vegetable dyes, and often comes in stunning jewel-like colours. It also has many health benefits, due to its natural antibacterials and hypoallergenic properties. Despite being thought of as delicate, silk is the strongest natural fibre in the world.

It therefore ought to be one the best fabrics that I can offer my clients. So why do I not do this?
