Contribute To Our Planet & Buy Sustainable, Recyclable Fashion!
Moving towards a greener lifestyle is now considered to be everyone's responsibility. It is our duty as consumers to reduce the negative effects of the fast fashion industry, such as the exploitation of human resources, toxic and chemically manufactured fabrics, and the excessive use of artificial and harmful materials.
On a happy note, Les Sultanas uses Natural, Biodegradable materials, Comprising of Innovative Fibers and Smart Textiles; whilst fusing traditional and sustainable techniques to ethically produce hijabs for women.
We Give Our Queens Confidence That Their Hijab Choices Are Environmentally Responsible.
Les Sultanas' new Organic Hijab Collection is made with LENZING™ EVERCO™ Certified 100% Natural Modal Fabric; this fabric technology offers a natural softness, and supple feel we know can be effortlessly styled - and we're here for it!
LENZING™ is certified as a Biodegradable & Compostable fabric.
LENZING™ Modal is one of the most sustainable fabrics in the textile industry, made from sustainably harvested beech trees, a replenishable raw material derived from innovative environmental processes not commercially used.
Luxurious Is The Best Way We Would Describe LENZING™ Modal.
WHY MODAL?
Modal is a Luxurious, Durable, and Sustainable textile. Here at Les Sultanas, we believe Modal is perfect for hijab if it is derived from certified renewable wood sources using an eco-responsible production process that meets high environmental standards; LENZING™ ECOVERO™ fibers are tailored to a sustainable lifestyle, contributing to a cleaner environment.
These non-toxic technologies have allowed recovery of up to 95% of production materials, using a closed-loop system, minimizing emissions, conserving resources while using an environmentally friendly bleaching method for pulp, protecting the biomes and local communities.
This is why we have invested in new weaves, fibers, and qualities so that we can bring you the best selection. LENZING™ Modal is great for moisture control due to the breathable fiber technology. It's also Soft and Flexible in its qualities. This makes it a wonderful hijab to wear all year round.
As Modal is long-lasting, it doesn't pill easily (or at all!), which means wash after wash; your hijab will last you for years to come.
Yes, it's more expensive in comparison to other low-quality fabrics you may see on the market, but the benefits and value you will gain from wearing Modal are immense. It's worth investing in.
Make The Right Choice, Protect The Earth!

LENZING was ranked in the high "light green shirt" category, indicating that there is a very low risk of sourcing wood from ancient and endangered forests when using LENZING™ fibers.
