Ramie is a vegetable fiber used for thousands of years in the Far East. It is obtained from the stems of two species of plants from the Urticacee family: Boehmeria Nivea and Boehmeria Utilis. The complex processing of this textile fiber makes ramie very rare in the fashion sector. The advantages of ramie are: it resists attack by bacteria and mold, it is extremely absorbent and resistant to very high temperatures. Breathable and biodegradable.
