DYEING & PRINTING

We understand globally, apparel manufacturing is currently responsible for 18% of the world’s waste on water & the affect on harmful chemicals released into waterways, due to washing, dyeing & printing of fabrics. We strive to use partners that recycle their water in their processes.

80% of our printing is digital print as water usage is significantly less than screen & other printing processes.

85% of our dyeing processes use non-toxic inks keeping clear of as much toxins as possible

Our garment bags are zero waste & 100% compostable.

100% of our online orders are shipped carbon neutral

 

LABELS & SWING TAGS

Our swing tags and made with recycled paper.

Our care labels are made using recycled polyester.

Currently our brand label is made from cotton.

 

FUTURE PROJECTS

Establishing a Circular Fashion Program & partner with a recycling textile business to then enable consumers will send to us their unwanted clothes for recycling, in return customers will receive a 'REDUCED IMAPCT WARRIOR' voucher.

Circular fashion is a term used within the fashion industry that aims to create a closed-loop system, reducing waste and maximising the lifespan textiles & clothing. It aligns with the principles of Circular Economy by rethinking how garments are designed, produced, used, and disposed of.
