These items are made at our little centre in rural Cambodia where we routinely are without water (no running water exists in our village) and power. This robe is therefore not prewashed and we recommend that you do before you wear as it will soften and sit softly on your skin. Over time the fabric will soften more (it usually takes 3 – 5 washes to really soften into its ideal state).
By purchasing this product you are reducing plastic waste, not using new virgin materials which can contribute to climate change, supporting our education and research across the world, providing jobs to vulnerable women in Cambodia in our own little product centre, and helping to support environmentalism & education to kids and communities in Cambodia.
These robes are designed to last for years but at end of life, this product can simply be returned to the ground in compost or buried.
Our robes are made at our own little centre supporting ethical labor and a happy workplace in rural Cambodia.
Fabric
Our linen bathrobes are made from recycled linens. Our fabric is redirected from landfill in order to reduce our environmental impact. Instead of using new (virgin) materials, we collect fabrics that would otherwise have been burned or found their way to landfill. New materials take an enormous amount of resources to produce so we prefer to use fabrics that are already in existence and would have gone to waste. These fabrics exist from an over-supply to businesses, wrong orders, unused due to changes etc. We collect these and use them for our products.
Label
Our labels were made from the off-cuts we save whilst cutting our products so you may receive a product with this made from hemp or linen. We have since transitioned to 100% cotton labels and now use those off-cuts for other products to retain zero waste.
Included in this item is:
1 x linen bathrobe
1 x eco-friendly product package
1 x custom designed, recyclable tissue paper
Please wash this product first before wearing. We don’t recommend this for other items but as you’re wearing this against your skin it will soften and continuing softening over time. This is an easy-care product. Place this bag into your washing machine on a gentle, cold cycle. Hang to dry or lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry. There may be some small shrinkage from the first wash.
We only use plastic-free packaging and ensure everything is eco-friendly and beautifully presented. Your item is provided inside a minimal, recycled card packaging box using post-consumer waste. Your item is shipped inside one of our boxes or a reused option which can be recycled or composted and where required is kept protected with 100% post-consumer waste shredded paper (recycled or composted).
Where products are wrapped, our tissue paper is custom designed, eco-friendly printed with vegetable ink. The tissue paper is acid, lignin and sulfur free and FSC certified (Forest Stewardship Council to promote sustainable forestry).
Our mailers and envelopes are made from recycled materials. Our thank you cards are made from 100% recycled cotton t-shirts. We use paper tape for any additional closures. Please compost and recycle our packaging as appropriate.
At end of life, the product can be cut up into pieces and buried or composted.
The style shown in the photos is available. It is a light linen.
Perfect for lounging
This bathrobe is ideal for jumping out of the shower or bath, heading down to the pool, lounging at the beach on a summer day or just wrapping around you!
Plastic free packaging
Your robe will be sent to you carefully wrapped in our custom, recyclable tissue-paper or packaged up in our bathroom kit if you’re adding it there.
