Reduction in packaging across the business
As part of our UN Sustainable Development Goals we are focused on SDG12 for Responsible Production and Consumption. Using natural and recycled materials where possible and ensuring our products are durable while leaving as little trace as possible.
Built to Last
We are proud to design and produce products with skilled and meticulous craftsmen with the finest fabrics, which if cared for, can last a lifetime or even be passed down generations.
Quick-Dry Swimwear Fabric
Our quick-dry swim textile is made from 100% recycled polyester, using on average 15 single-use plastic bottles and saving them from landfill or ending up in our oceans.
Printing & Dyeing
We use the best printing and dyeing practices possible to enable the best quality and use the least water and have the least waste we can.
Natural Beachwear
We prioritise using natural fabrics for our beachwear where we can, all our cotton is certified organic with the exception of our cotton twill caps which are responsibly sourced.
Corozo Nut Buttons
We use eco-friendly nuts for all our buttons, instead of plastic or shell. Corozo nut is the ultimate renewable resource and perfect for all-natural island living.
Every business has a carbon footprint but it is our collective responsibility to be mindful of this and work towards to reducing our CO2 footprint together. At LOVE BRAND & Co. we have set a goal to become carbon neutral by 2030 and we are on the road to achieving this.
One of our future goals is to introduce a closed loop system to keep our clothes in circulation for as long as possible. The scheme will encourage our customers to return and recycle their old swimming trunks for new. Sustainability is a journey and we are excited about where the road will take us, evolving our products and practices to be even more sustainable and continue our pledge.
