SUSTAINABILITY

 

Inherently inspired by our natural world, it is imperative our values are mirrored in our goods and services. Known for making decisions using the heart, we continue to practice responsible sourcing, sustainability and eco-awareness where possible.

The small batch model promises minimal waste, however there is always room for improvement and we will continue to explore new possibilities for change. If you have any suggestions on how we can do more, or any queries regarding sustainability, we’d love to hear from you at hello@ruthholly.co.uk

REDUCE, REUSE & RECYCLE

  • Working from a home studio, unnecessary travel is eliminated.

  • External packaging received is reused, and extra packaging material are responsibly sourced and recycled.

  • Designs are placement printed onto cushions and other textile items, so there is limited left over fabric.

  • If there is leftover fabric, it is used to create one-off goods which are sold in-person at retail fairs and markets.

RESPONSIBLE SOURCING

  •  OEKO-TEX® cotton and FSC paper stock.

  • All goods are made in the UK, removing air travel from any of process.

  • For other goods, recycled and eco-friendly raw materials are chosen where possible.

  • Digital print uses half the ink of screen printing methods, resulting in less waste.
