Return To Nature
The Future is Circular
At the core of our mission lies a deep reverence for Mother Nature. Our Return to Nature Initiative is backed by our innovative on-demand production model that holds the key to fashion's waste problem. Our strategic plan is also revolutionizing the entire lifecycle of products by creating materials that are either recycled, regenerative, and/or renewable in nature.
THE PROBLEM
"It is estimated that only 1% of clothing ever gets recycled. The fashion industry is grappling with a severe waste problem. With 60% of clothing manufactured hits a landfill within 12 months of its production date". -Statistics from the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA)
WHY IT MATTERS
"The fashion industry contributes significant greenhouse gas emissions, between 8% and 10% of total global emissions, according to the United Nations. That is more that all international flights and maritime shipping combined". -Statistics from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
THE SOLUTION
We produce clothing in-house and made to last. We also strongly promote responsible textile recycling in Canada. By recycling textile waste into new products we help to reduce the amount of textile waste sent to our landfills, conserve our of natural resources, decreases transportation emissions overseas, and reduces the environmental footprint of textile production in the fashion industry.
RTN - Smart Design
Circularity all starts with good design principles, mindful awareness, and responsible action from start to finish. Our smart strategies, innovative solutions, and natural fabrics leave nothing to waste and keep the entire lifecycle of a product in mind.
RTN- Circular & Next Gen Materials
We use the highest quality yarns and fabrics with the lowest impact, providing attainable solutions to excellent quality made and sustainable materials that are leading the way to next generation materials that are bio-based, recyclable, and/or renewable in nature
RTN- Recycle to Remake
Focused on a series of 6 holistic circular design programs, we lengthen the lifespan of clothing. We reuse the same materials over and over again to create new products within our own value chain. It's a way to conserve natural resources, divert waste, and fight climate change.
