At TĪRYAJ, a garment is not a single fabric.
It is a system of elements, visible and hidden working together with intention.
From fibre and thread to structure and fastening, every component is selected for longevity, biodegradability, and respect for life. Nothing enters the House by convenience.

Egyptian Cotton Thread
Material: Long-staple cotton
Origin: Egypt
Biodegradable: Yes
Tensile Strength:
≈ 400–600 MPa (fibre level)
(long-staple cotton fibres exhibit higher tensile strength due to length and uniformity)
Yield / Failure Behaviour:
Gradual fibre breakage under load
(No brittle snap, no elastic rebound)
Thread Structure:
Spun · Uncoated · No polyester core
End of Life:
Fully biodegradable
Decomposes naturally alongside cotton fabric
No microplastic residue
