Cotton consumes too much water, synthetic fibers are traditionally made from crude oil and later turn into microplastics or mattresses are glued together in such a way that recycling is practically impossible. All of this can be done differently today - if the customer wants it. In Europe, between 9.5 and 10 billion euros are spent on household and home textiles every year.
