GEN H; FARM TO FACTORY TO FABRIC

It’s hard to believe that it has been one year since we spent a fantastic week filming with Hemp Farmers from La Chanvriére collective in Aube, as part of Orta’s Gen H initiative.
Orta Anadolu were early adopters of working with Hemp fibres in the Denim Industry, blending hemp with other natural and recycled fibres to create beautiful fabrics. This was, without a doubt, one of the favourite projects that we have worked on for Orta and some of our favourite fabrics.
Many thanks to the lovely people at La Chanvriére for all their help, to Dr. Sedef Uncu Aki and Zennure Danisman for inviting us, and to Olivia Singleton for the photography and videography.
