Carbon Footprint
Shipping & distances
Like you, we are trying our best to reduce carbon footprint by working closely with clothing manufacturers located in the same city as where our fabrics are sourced from. Freight usually makes up 10 - 33% of the carbon footprint of an e-commerce sale. We always try our best to reduce our sampling process and have them sent via sea freight instead of air freight. This greatly reduces business and freight flights. We do not work on consignment with international brick-and-mortar retail stores as greater distances mean bigger footprints.
Opt for regular delivery and less returns
Express deliveries significantly increase carbon footprint as the drivers have to make a special trip to the designated locations. By opting for regular deliveries, you will help by lowering carbon footprint as the drivers will send parcels to locations at the same area with route planning.
