Our production :
- 🌱Our coton collection is produced in Pondicherry by a sewing atelier called Navasarjan which is depending of belgian NGO A Way With You. AWWY is supporting families in both India & Thailand, helping students with school materials, tuition fees & even food when necessary! They can be followed and supported via their website www. awwy.org – Email : info@awwy.org and for your donations : IBAN : BE50 7775 9386 7018 BIC : GKCCBEBB – Every donation from 40,00 € onwards is fiscally deductible
- Our swimshorts have been produced in a small facility located very close to Porto (Portugal). Irene is doing a great job in taking care of our production & as the fabrics for our swimshorts are coming from the next village, we’re reducing as much as possible the transport.
- We limit our stock, this enables us to have variation in our collection & especially avoids overproduction
- 📦shipping boxes : made of min 70% recycled paper & can be recycled afterwards again
- silk paper : can be recycled
- 📦our hamburger boxes can be recycled – prints are stamps with waterprint & the backside sticker is made of recycled fabric.
- we’re monitoring every step of our production & packaging trying to improve all the time
- for deliveries to Belgium (or abroad with home delivery) our packages are delivered by bike to our local post-office & we use them as they mostly anyway come to your homes/offices to deliver your bills… 🙂
- Mondial Relay is another solution we offer you… this enables you to pick up your order in your favorite shop!
- Colombe Casey is taking care of our illustrations
- Céline Bilquin is doing a great job as graphic designer, both for our logo, some of our communication as well as designing the perfect fabrics!
- MC Kumps is taking our graphic part over since Celine is trying out new adventures
- Our webmaster is Staglabel
- Photographs are taken by great family members, special thanks to Foulik de Meeus as well as professional photographers Emilie Marchandise & Julie de Bellaing in Belgium & Stephane Louesdon in Morocco
- we have a vegetable garden & try to use the most out of it
- our chicken eat most of our remains & they give us their eggs (when they don’t strike)
- we try to buy as much bulk as possible when needed & stick to seasonal food
- we try to buy most of our stuff in small shops (clothes, furniture, food, etc…)
- we try to limit the use of cars by carpooling to school & since we live in the countryside, no need to go everyday to several activities, we just enjoy the garden!
