Production methods - Good reasons to wear clothes from the Earth Collection

 

Our production processes are carried out with respect for the environment and the workforce. We only use dyes that do not contain heavy metals and have a high fixation rate of 94-96%. We only work with dye houses that clean and recycle their waste water.

All hangtags and cartons are made from recycled paper , the minimal plastic packaging is also recyclable and the inks on the hangtags are water based. Leftover fabric is re-used wherever possible such as in the production of our signature rag bag which we have been proudly selling since 2003.



In May 2008 The Earth Collection's manufacturer, BCC Pacific, was proud to be the first garment manufacturer in China to be awarded the European ECO label, the EU Flower.  This ECO label covers vital environmental areas such as:-

Minimising waste water pollution
Restricting the use of hazardous substances
Minimising the use of substances harmful to health and the environment
Following strict production criteria verified by independent consultants
Meeting quality criteria for shrinkage and colour resistance
Contributing to a sustainable economy
