IKEA Unveils ÄNGSLILJA Duvet Cover Made from Production Waste Cotton
IKEA has introduced the new ÄNGSLILJA bed textile, produced with at least 50% recycled cotton obtained from textile production waste.
IKEA introduced the new ÄNGSLILJA bed textile in a post shared on its Instagram account. According to the company, the product is made with at least 50% recycled cotton obtained from textile production waste.
From Production Waste to Soft Fabric
The Swedish company says it started by looking at the resources already available. Production leftovers such as small pieces, yarn ends and cuttings are being reused, which both saves resources and prevents waste from being generated. Reminding that cotton has been part of everyday life for centuries, IKEA stresses that the key challenge was using recycled cotton while preserving a soft and high-quality feel.
The company notes that it carried out careful balancing and testing work at the IKEA Test and Development Laboratory in Älmhult. In this process, recycled cotton is blended with virgin cotton and tested using the same methods applied to virgin cotton. The goal is to achieve the same softness and quality in the new ÄNGSLILJA duvet cover.
