Sustainable Style on The Block: Kumo Recycled

As sustainability becomes increasingly important in home design, our HomePro extended range offers innovative products like Kumo Recycled by James Dunlop.

Showcased on The Block 2024, Kumo Recycled is a modern fabric made from 92% recycled polyester, blending eco-conscious production with stylish, functional design.

The Eco-Friendly Journey: How Kumo Recycled is Made

Kumo Recycled transforms post-consumer plastic bottles into high-performance fabric. The process involves cleaning, shredding, and reconstituting PET bottles into polyester yarn through an advanced recycling method.

The result is a soft, durable fabric with a natural feel, ideal for residential and commercial use. Additionally, Kumo Recycled is Oeko-Tex 100 certified, ensuring no harmful chemicals are used during production.

Featured on The Block, Kumo Recycled’s wide-width sheer panels create a sense of openness and light. The fabric's texture adds warmth and a soft, tactile quality that complements the clean, modern architecture featured in the show’s homes.

A Nature-Inspired Colour Palette

The Kumo Recycled range takes inspiration from the vibrant flora and fauna of Australasia, featuring soft greys, greens, and muted earth tones that create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

In Week 4 of The Block, Kumo Recycled was chosen in the colour Silver Birch by Kylie and Brad and in Parchment by Courtney and Grant and in the winning room by Kristian and Mimi. These shades framed large windows beautifully, enhancing natural light and creating a calm, welcoming atmosphere in the bedrooms.
