Hemp is our favorite fabric to work with at tangachi, and represents true sustainability. The thing that puts hemp at the top of our favorites list is the fact that it is native to India. Even today, long after the war on hemp plants and massive attempts to wipe it out,  as you drive through the mountains and valleys of the Himlayan mountain range you are bound to catch whiffs of this master plant that grows as a naturally occurring weed all over the area. Contact us today to get an updated catalogue of our available hemp fabrics. We are happy to assist you in finding the right match of hemp fabric for your specific designs.

Silk

Ahimsa silk, also known as “peace silk” is a cruelty-free alternative to traditional silk. Unlike conventional silk production, where silkworms are killed during the harvesting process, Ahimsa silk is made by allowing the silkworms to complete their life cycle and naturally emerge from their cocoons. This ethical approach preserves the integrity of the insects while producing luxurious, soft and lustrous fabric. Known for its smooth texture, breathability, and natural sheen, Ahimsa silk is not only a symbol of compassion but also a sustainable and high-quality material. Ideal for clothing, accessories, and home textiles, it offers a guilt free option for those seeking both elegance and eco-consciousness.

Wool

A natural renewable fiber derived from the fleece of sheep, known for its warmth, softness, and durability. It is an excellent insulator, regulating body temperature by trapping air within its fibers, making it ideal for both cold and warm climates. Wool is naturally moisture wicking, breathable, and resistant to odors, making it a comfortable and practical material for a variety of clothing and textiles. We take pride in sourcing only sustainably harvested local wool from Himalayan sheep, where the communities adopt humane and sustainable methos in tune with the rythm of the seasons.
