Felt with a story
VILIKKALA
We use interesting ecological materials in our products, such as felt made from recycled plastic bottles and waste textile fibers.
Material matters
Recycled fibers from clothing
End-of-life textiles are mainly clothes that have reached the end of their lifecycle. They can be utilized in many ways. The felts made from Vilikkala recycled fibres are mainly made from Finnish work clothes that have been removed from circulation at the end of their lifecycle during industrial washing. This way, they have become new raw material again. The vibrant colours are the original colours of the clothes and are part of their amazing story.
Stylish everyday wear
Pipsa Hurmerinta
Pipsa is a TV chef who has an interesting career as an influencer in the fashion world. She has created two products for Vilikkala, inspired by everyday life. "Sometimes I feel like my life is just a matter of transporting things from one place to another. Once, when I was loading ugly, worn-out bags into the trunk of my car, I thought, why couldn't this be done more beautifully and better? What if the things were in a sustainable, ecological and stylish bag that I could carry anywhere? The solution was closer than I could have hoped. Vilikkala's sustainable, ecological and affordable bags adapt perfectly to my needs. I believe that this bag will find its irreplaceable place in your life, just like it did in mine.
