Sustainability Strengths & Weaknesses

All purchases impact the planet and its people. Instead of ignoring that, we help you weigh up the pros and cons.

✔ Made from leftover sari silk fabrics, reducing textile waste.

✔ Provides an income, particularly to women working from their homes.

✘ Transported from India to Australia (contributing to CO2 emissions).

✘ Made from leftover fabric, this product does not help reduce post-consumer (used textiles) waste and may even support the production of virgin textiles.

✘ Supply chains in India are sometimes more opaque, making it difficult to have confidence in sustainability claims.
