SUSTAINABLE FABRICS

We Use Recycled Yarn

We create many of the styles in our collections from recycled polyester. We also make our swimwear range using REPREVE® yarn. Both of these processes work by transforming recycled bottles into fibres, which extends product lifespan and reduces the demand for new materials.
The REPREVE® process embeds properties like wicking, adaptive warming and cooling, and water repellency for a reliable, resilient yarn. So far, UNIFI, which makes REPREVE®, has recycled over 20 billion plastic bottles (and counting), helping to reduce plastic pollution.
You can find out more about REPREVE® via their website: repreve.com.

Learn About The GRS Certification

The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) recognises all the recycled yarns we use. This certification verifies the amount of recycled material in a fabric composition and creates a transparent market, minimising harmful environmental and chemical impacts across the supply chain.  
The GRS certificate only applies to materials that contain more than 50% recycled fibres.

GOTS Cotton Explained

Since 2022, we have included GOTS fibres in many of our collections. 'GOTS' stands for the 'Global Organic Textile Standard', the leading textile processing standard for organic fibres. 

The GOTS is one of the more stringent certification standards as it ensures the cotton yarn remains organic from fibre through to the end garment. In addition, checks are performed at every phase of the production process to guarantee purity. 

We Use Recycled Packaging

Our packaging is made from recycled materials to reduce our carbon footprint. We also use biodegradable polybags and opt for a paperless shipment and returns policy.

PARTNERSHIPS

Restoring Forests With One Tree Planted

Trees support the planet in many ways, from cleaning the air and mitigating carbon, to capturing rainwater and reducing the risk of natural disasters. We believe that every tree matters, which is why we've teamed up with One Tree Planted and pledge to plant a tree on your behalf every time you make a purchase.
One Tree Planted is a non-profit organisation that wants to make it easier for individuals and businesses to create a healthier climate. They work with reforestation partners across North America, South America, Asia and Africa. They aim to protect biodiversity and support reforestation efforts worldwide, which in the process, creates jobs, builds communities and protects habitats for biodiversity.
Since forming in 2014, One Tree Planted have planted over 40 million trees in more than 47 countries across the globe and more than doubled their impact in 2021 from the previous year, planting an incredible 23.5 million trees! 
You can find out more about One Tree Planted via their website onetreeplanted.org or Instagram @onetreeplanted.
