Opera Sport Sustainability Actions

Use of recycled and organic materials

Since the first collection, OpéraSPORT has incorporated materials made from industrial waste along with certified organic cotton. Each material is chosen based on its look, quality, and performance.

12

Recycled fibres in collections

Recycled silk, cashmere, wool, and cotton in the collections come from pre-consumer waste, including excess fabric from weaving, factory cutting rooms, and unsold items. These materials are processed back into fiber form, spun into yarns, and then woven or knitted into fabrics.

12

Recycled synthetics sourced from waste

Recycled polyester and polyamide are sourced from consumer and industrial waste, such as plastic bottles and discarded textiles. These materials undergo fewer processing stages compared to new synthetics and are selected for their durability and performance in garment production.

Recycled and water-based PU

Our PU is either recycled PU or water-based PU. Recycled PU saves on raw materials, energy costs, and CO2 emissions. Water-based PU is environmentally friendly because it is produced in a polluti-on-free, non-toxic process and does not contain harmful chemicals.

12

No animal leather or fur

OpéraSPORT does not use animal leather or exotic skins in garment production. Instead, the brand incorporates alternatives such as recycled PU and water-based PU. Wool and cashmere used in collections come from recycled sources. This approach reduces the need for newly sourced fibers. All collections are fur-free.

Restricted substance list

OpéraSPORT works with suppliers and manufacturers that follow a restricted substance list (RSL) in line with the EU REACH directive. This list outlines chemical substances that are either restricted or limited in textile production. All suppliers and manufacturers working with OpéraSPORT have agreed to comply with these guidelines.

Reduce waste in production

Prints are not required to be placed identically on each garment, which reduces fabric waste during cutting. Production quantities are based on orders from B2B customers and projected webshop demand. This approach helps align manufacturing with expected sales and avoids excess stock at the end of a season.

12

Repurpose leftover fabric

OpéraSPORT repurposes leftover fabric to develop new styles or upcycle it into different items. These materials may also be used for runway shows, retail spaces, and photoshoot campaigns.

12

Care instructions and repair

OpéraSPORT includes care instructions on product labels to help customers maintain garment quality. Garment hang-tags feature a scannable QR code that links to an online care guide with washing and maintenance information. The team is developing a series of garment care videos to provide additional guidance on fabric care and maintenance.
