STSC are fabric wholesalers who aim to inspire global fashion and product designers to use true sustainable eco-textiles that have minimal negative impact on the environment and maximum impact on the welfare of all people along the supply chain.
Our particular focus is on beautiful, truly sustainable, circular, natural, biodegradable and ethical fabrics. In particular we specialise in eco-fabrics by Lenzing and plant fibres from so-called ”farm waste" typically destroyed after a harvest, thus creating fabrics that start from zero water waste, and support a ”wealth from waste" philosophy.

Circular Centre and initiatives such as our Circular Textile Waste Service, Circular Denim and #iamcarbonpositive

STSC is privileged to have been chosen in the inaugural Emerging Material Innovators Report, as compiled by Cradle 2 Cradle's, Fashion Positive and the H&M Foundation for Banana Silk in April 2018.
MINIMUM ORDER QUANTITIES. In some instances our fabrics are made-to-order by the roll or by the metre and typical standards are often 1,000 metre MOQs. STSC cater to very large commercial orders plus have established the Sustainable Textiles Club to support emerging designers worldwide who require only small MOQs.
We work to develop close-knit supply chains to minimise our production's environmental footprint plus strive to create circular economies.
Businesses are added to our Supply Chains who we know use sustainable resources, plus show environmentally and socially responsible practices that actively contribute to India’s social, economic and environmental improvement.
Our goal is to create a booming sustainable fabric industry and focus on "wealth from waste" fibres that will support families, particularly farmers and women Artisans in India.
Businesses we support range from women working from home, through to professionally accredited large production houses.
We offer a range of options for fabric dying using using OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, GOTS accredited dyes, hand dyed using pure plant based dyes, or Ayurvastra Organic Cotton that is hand dyed with up to 108 medicinal plants.
The Circular Centre is a solutions based inter-industry Centre geared to facilitate circular economy initiatives. We aim to showcase and foster collaboration through the lens of circular economy products and services including design, fashion, textiles and textile waste.
The Centre's first initiatives are a Circular Textile Waste Service and #iamcarbonpositive.
STSC work with the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University's Eco Green Unit to support their "Wealth From Waste" Project.
The Unit have worked to develop an improved Fibre Extraction Machine, and along with additional support from Prime Minister Modi's Make In India initiative, the Eco Green Unit offer subsidies to banana farmers and communities to help them purchase machines and receive training.
By working with STSC you will help make a difference as we pledge to donate a % from each sale to a dedicated fund so we can purchase and gift Fibre Extraction Machines to farming communities.
Currently only 10% of banana pseudo stems are used for making fabric or products after each harvest. The majority is removed at great cost to the farmer, and often burnt, adding to local air pollution. We aim to change this.
