A tractor effect project that involves turning timber into textiles based on the principles of sustainability and circularity. The lifecycle of timber will be closed for the first time in Galicia, and more than 200,000 tonnes of sustainable textile fibre will be produced in the autonomous community each year, using certified timber from our forests as well as textile waste.
