Recycle. Replenish. Responsibility.

                                         

MATERIALS

As responsible creators, we are moving towards using more recycled materials. Our handbags and make-up bags, exterior and linings and is made from recycled polyester (rPet), a material made from recycled plastic bottles and recycled polyurethane.

We now need to work on our socks being made from recycled materials - we are aiming for this to be the case by the end of 2022.

 

MANUFACTURING 

We work closely with our manufacturing partners - including a third generation, family-owned sock factory and a sustainable, vegan leather handbag manufacturer. We work with manufacturers assessed by the amfori BSCI code of conduct that meet their labour principles for ethical business behaviour, fair renumeration, no discrimination, no child labour, decent working hours and occupational health & safety. We move our production from overseas to the UK via train as it is more eco-friendly with low exhaust emissions.
  

COMMUNITY & CHARITY

We regularly donate stock and samples to Royal Trinity Hospice to supply their retail stores. To date, we have raised  £27,800. This funding is used to help provide a vital service within the local area. Last year they cared for 2,550 people at the hospice and out in the community, in patients' homes and care homes.
