MATERIALS
ALEGER sources all knitwear materials exclusively from responsible suppliers who prioritise transparency and environmental care.
Working with four trusted yarn partners, each recognised for excellence and strict quality control from raw fibre to finished yarn, ALEGER can ensure full traceability and consistent standards.
All cashmere is certified by The Good Cashmere Standard, reflecting sustainable sourcing and responsible farming. All cotton used in the collection is organically farmed.
100% Cashmere
ALEGER’s signature cashmere yarn is made from premium fibres sourced from Inner Mongolia. With an average micron of 15.2–15.8μm, the yarn is buttery soft and luxurious, yet durable and long-lasting. Thanks to its finer, loftier fibres, it is also 2–3 times warmer than merino wool.
70% Wool / 30% Cashmere
The wool used in the cashmere blend is sourced from suppliers certified by the Responsible Wool Standard. The blend contains 40% recycled wool, offering a sustainable option without compromising softness or performance.
85% Pima Cotton / 15% Cashmere
This yarn is crafted from American-grown Pima cotton blended with cashmere. Pima’s extra-long staple fibres provide enhanced strength and softness with excellent dye absorption. The result is a pill-resistant, high-performance yarn that delivers longer-lasting, high-quality garments.
95% Organic Cotton / 5% Cashmere
A premium yarn made from 95% Organic Cotton and 5% Cashmere. It is fully traceable and certified by the Organic Content Standard (OCS), offering superior softness with a lower environmental footprint.
PACKAGING
We know that every little bit counts so we carefully select packaging that ensures a lighter load on the environment.
The clear garment polybags protecting our knits are made with 100% recycled LDPE (low density polyethylene) and can be recycled after use.
All on-line orders are packed in poly-bags which are made from plant-based plastics and are compostable.
To protect our knitwear from moisture during its journey, we use a plastic-free desiccant made from natural bentonite clay that is packaged in biodegradable FSC-certified Kraft paper.
Where we can, we use recycled paper including our hang-tags, packing slips and tissue paper.
