Brand
It has been some time since 1993, when two brothers and designers Daniel and Markus Freitag decided to breathe new life into old truck tarpaulins and turn them into stylish backpacks and accessories. During that time, the Zurich-based company's offer has grown to more than 80 unique products. In 2014 the company’s long effort to find the right material came to an end. The result of this was the F-ABRIC. All materials used for the creation of the material are produced on European soil within a radius of 2500 km from Zurich and are 100% naturally decomposable.

For the production of clothing, it uses its own F-ABRIC fabric made of 100% sustainable materials. These are mainly organic hemp, organic linen, Tencel Lyocell and modal. This new F-ABRIC hemp fiber fabric does not contain any harmful substances and is completely compostable.
