Luxury Meets Sustainability: Introducing Our Planet-First Approach

In today’s world, luxury and sustainability no longer need to be at odds. At MUSEVELA, we believe in crafting products that not only offer elegance and comfort but also align with the values of eco-conscious consumers. 

How MUSEVELA Prioritizes Environmental Responsibility

At MUSEVELA, we take our environmental responsibility seriously. Every step of our production process is designed with sustainability in mind, ensuring our products offer both luxury and eco-conscious appeal.

  • Ethically Sourced Mulberry Silk
    We exclusively use high-quality 22 momme mulberry silk, which is sourced from responsible farms that prioritize sustainable mulberry cultivation. Our commitment to organic practices means that no harmful chemicals or pesticides are involved, ensuring both environmental health and product quality.

  • Eco-Friendly Production
    Our manufacturing processes are optimized to minimize water usage and energy consumption. We work closely with our artisans to ensure that each product is crafted with care, reducing waste and promoting longevity. Our packaging is also designed with sustainability in mind, using recyclable and biodegradable materials whenever possible.

  • Eco-packaging
    To minimize waste, we reduce the amount of packaging used when shipping our products and replace plastic fillers with organic raffia grass, offering a natural and eco-friendly alternative. Our Gift Collections are also thoughtfully packaged using Kazan Paper, an innovative, eco-conscious paper from Italy. Made from a blend of up to 40% grass fibers and virgin wood pulp, Kazan Paper embodies the perfect balance of sustainability and luxury, reflecting our commitment to both the environment and exceptional craftsmanship.

  • Minimizing Waste 
    We strive to create minimal fabric waste in our production. Any leftover silk scraps are repurposed or recycled into smaller accessories, reducing the environmental impact and ensuring that nothing goes to waste.

What does it means by meeting the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100

All of MUSEVELA products are certified with the OEKO-TEX® Standard and what does it means? 

  • The OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is a globally recognized certification that ensures textiles are free from harmful substances and safe for human use. 
  • Certified Free from Harmful Substances: Products that meet the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 are tested and certified to be free from harmful chemicals, ensuring they are safe for human use. This includes testing for substances like pesticides, heavy metals, and formaldehyde.
  • Strict Testing Criteria: The certification involves rigorous testing against a comprehensive list of over 100 regulated and non-regulated substances, ensuring that the textile meets strict international safety standards.
  • Sustainable and Safe Manufacturing: OEKO-TEX certified products are manufactured in environmentally responsible ways, ensuring that both the production process and the final product are safe for consumers and minimize environmental impact.


Be an Eco-Conscious Consumer

As consumers, we have the power to make choices that reflect our values. By choosing high-quality, sustainable materials like mulberry silk, you’re not only investing in your well-being but also contributing to the health of the planet. Here are a few tips for being an eco-conscious consumer:

  • Prioritize Natural Fabrics
    When shopping for clothing, bedding, or accessories, opt for natural, biodegradable fabrics like silk, organic cotton, and linen. These materials break down naturally, leaving a smaller environmental footprint than synthetic alternatives.

  • Buy Less, Choose Quality
    Rather than buying disposable, low-quality items that wear out quickly, invest in durable, high-quality products that are built to last. Silk is a fantastic example of a material that, with proper care, can last for years without losing its luxurious feel.

  • Support Ethical Brands
    Seek out brands that prioritize sustainability and transparency in their production processes. By choosing companies like MUSEVELA, you’re supporting responsible practices that benefit both the environment and the people involved in the production.

  • Mindful Care
    Extend the life of your silk products by caring for them properly. Handwashing your silk pillowcases and accessories with cold water and a gentle detergent not only protects the delicate fibers but also reduces water and energy usage compared to machine washing.

  • Reduce Waste
    Avoid the fast-fashion mentality of buying frequently and disposing quickly. Instead, opt for timeless, versatile pieces that can be worn or used across multiple settings—whether for sleep, travel, or day-to-day life.

By choosing MUSEVELA’s mulberry silk products, you’re making an eco-luxury choice that values both indulgence and sustainability. Our commitment to environmental responsibility ensures that every piece is crafted with care for you and the planet. Join us in embracing a lifestyle that’s as luxurious as it is eco-conscious!
