W H Y A L PA C A Alpacas have graced the Peruvian mountains for centuries. Living in the height of the Andes, these animals provide a healthy economic foundation for the shepherds, who care for them. The alpaca fibre is prided for its extraordinary sof t and durable qualities, and it offers more warmth than other natural fibres. They are hypoallergenic, as the fibres contain no lanolin and pilling is at an absolute minimum. Enjoy the warmth and lightness of our alpaca scarf collection made by talented and skilled weavers.

Texiles with integrity
HOW IT ALL BEGAN Back in 2002, Tina and Lasse Elvang went on a backpacking trip to Peru – their first journey together. They met a hardworking, warm-hear ted population with a proud tradition of craf tsmanship. On their journey they were introduced to the charming alpacas with the sof test wool imaginable. These animals have been impor tant to the Peruvians as before the Inca-era and the alpaca fibre is considered one of the finest in the world. Tina and Lasse returned to Denmark carrying the impressions from Peru and the knowledge of the wonderful alpaca fibres in their luggage. The idea of creating the company was born. The vision was to combine the best of two worlds – Scandinavian design with the Peruvian tradition of weaving textiles in alpaca fibres. A vision based on the principles of fair trade. The first collection of throws and cushions was presented to selected dealers in 2003 and in the following years a fashion collection has been added. Elvang is now sold in many countries around the world. Colleagues from dif ferent continents have joined the company and Elvang has reached the World Fair Trade Organization’s highest cer tification as a guaranteed member. But the essence of Elvang remains unchanged. Elvang is all about integrity throughout the supply chain. It is proper behavior and caring for each other. This is why we at Elvang say we create textiles with integrity.
