TWOTHIRDS, the Barcelona-based fashion brand dedicated to making “goods for a better future” has partnered with leading materials science company, Recover™, to produce responsibly-designed pieces including ocean-inspired tees, beach towels and high-quality basics.

Both RecoverTM and TWOTHIRDS are dedicated to bringing low-impact fashion to consumers and understand the importance of choosing responsible raw materials to do so. Aligned with TWOTHIRDS’ “Ocean at heart, Eco in mind” motto, pieces from this collaboration are made with up to 70% RecoverTM recycled cotton fiber, made from post-industrial textile waste. The TWOTHIRDS design team maximises the amount of recycled materials featured in its products, to create durable pieces that never sacrifice on quality.

As well as opting for lower-impact recycled materials, sustainability was also prioritised in the value chain. Thanks to Recover’s strategic partnership with FERRE Yarns, based locally in Alicante, the transportation impact connected to the TWOTHIRDS range was minimised.

Lutz Schwenke, the Founder and CEO of TWOTHIRDS, commented, “TWOTHIRDS was founded to make goods for a better future, to craft clothes that take care of what my family and I love most: the ocean. Recover™ helps us reduce our use of high-impact virgin fabrics, without ever compromising on quality or style.”

Alfredo Ferre, CEO at Recover™, stated, “We are proud to partner with TWOTHIRDS, an eco-conscious brand that shares our vision of a more sustainable future, one in which high-quality fashion is still a priority.”
