A NOTE ON SUSTAINABILITY

Leading from the top, Kerrie is a passionate environmentalist and continually works to create a sustainable business.

Our goal is to create a proactive approach to sourcing and providing sustainable textiles.

We produce products by demand - which allows us to minimise waste. We don’t have warehouses of excess stock or waste going to landfill.

Australian Owned

Our business is 100% Australian owned and we work with like mind small and family businesses and suppliers to encourage responsible environmental practice.

Water based Inks

Our printing inks are water-soluble - we do not use polluting chemicals in our printing. We don’t use harsh chemicals that are detrimental to the environment in any part of our process.

Fabrics
