Green and glamorous: Discover our sustainable lingerie collection
Sustainability is a growing trend in the lingerie industry. More and more lingerie brands are committed to using sustainable materials and production methods. But what does sustainable lingerie actually mean and why should you choose sustainable lingerie?
Sustainable lingerie: What is it?
Sustainable lingerie refers to lingerie that is made with respect for people and the environment. This involves materials and production methods that cause as little damage as possible to the environment. Choosing sustainable lingerie can contribute to a better future for the planet, so it's important!
There are several ways in which lingerie can be sustainable. For example, it can use organic cotton or other environmentally friendly fabrics such as bamboo or hemp. These substances are often grown without the use of harmful pesticides and chemicals that can pollute the environment.
Another aspect of sustainable lingerie is the use of recycled materials. Much lingerie is made from synthetic fabrics such as nylon and polyester, which are not biodegradable and contribute to plastic pollution in our oceans. Reusing these materials reduces the amount of waste and reduces the impact on the environment.
In addition to the materials used, the production process is also important for sustainable lingerie. Brands that are committed to sustainability often work with manufacturers who offer good working conditions to their employees and who burden the environment as little as possible. For example, there are manufacturers who produce their lingerie using renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy.
Nowadays there are plenty of brands that offer sustainable lingerie, but are also beautiful and stylish at the same time. So you certainly don't have to compromise on style!
Pavo Couture's sustainable lingerie
Pavo's vision is to make the lingerie market more sustainable. That is why a large part of our production consists of recycled lace and residual material. The products that are not made from residual materials are produced in a sustainable manner. We strive to produce all products with sustainable materials. One step at a time!
What we already do:
1. The material: All factories have OEKO-TEX certification for production and fabrics. This means that all textiles we use are free of harmful substances. So we use the best materials!
2. The packaging: We use biodegradable polybags to package our products. The box in which the lingerie is placed is made of recycled cardboard!
3. The factories: The factories where Pavo produces the lingerie have been carefully selected, where employees work under favorable conditions with salaries above the minimum wage and where they value a good balance between work and private life. For example, consideration is given to female employees who have to take care of their families or who suffer from menstruation.
