From our farms, our wool travels to Australia's last woollen mill, on the outskirts of Launceston Our Fairtrade cotton to our partners in Kolkata or Southern India, where the highest grade cotton fabrics, revered around the world, have been made for generations. Our stunning flax, from the coastal regions of Belgium, is dew retted and scutched, before being finished in our partners in Southern India, whose factories are certified by Fairtrade and GOTS organic.
From day one we've been fighting waste, food security issues and water use. The bigger issues behind the scenes. We've supported teaching of sustainable farming and building non-GMO seed banks.
Our packaging is 100% plastic free made from salvaged fabric waste. We even stop the plastic waste you don't see - the millions of poly bags that normally pack each product as it is shipped from manufacturers to us.
Look out for our new range of recycled and salvaged fabrics in 2019.
