Loewe teams up to turn orange peels into garments

Spanish luxury brand Loewe is bringing garments made from orange peels. With support from Pyratex and Orange Fiber, the brand is transforming juice industry byproducts into refined, high-end clothing.

Developed in Madrid by Pyratex, this eco-conscious textile uses Orange Fiber, a patented material made from citrus waste. The result is a fabric that’s not just sustainable but also delivers strong performance and a luxurious feel.

This collaboration goes beyond surface-level sustainability. Orange Fiber is fully certified and traceable, with credentials including GRS, GOTS, OEKO-TEX, and B Corp, making it a genuine green innovation.

Produced in Italy through a closed-loop system, the fibre is brought to life in collaboration with the Lenzing Group, known for creating TENCEL, ensuring low-impact manufacturing and responsible sourcing.
