We Care.
Here at Cara & The Sky we are making a conscious effort to be aware of our fashion footprint.
We are continuously looking at ways to better ourselves, and this is a work in progress, but here's where we are right now...
WHERE IS OUR PRODUCT MADE?
Each collection is designed in London and made in the UK. We use a SEDEX approved manufacturer based in Leicester.
We chose this specifically to support the UK made fashion industry, and it also helps reduce the carbon footprint of our garments - no airfreight for us!
All our greeting cards, wall art & notebooks are proudly printed in the UK.
MATERIALS
We do not use any animal-derived materials and ingredients in our knitwear.
All our yarns are Acrylic/Polyamide.
Any brand flyers or notes included in your parcel are made from 100% recycled materials and are 100% recyclable.
Our greeting cards and wall art are made from 100% recycled card. The Inks are made from part organic biomass and are food safe.
Our notebooks are made from 100% recycled carbon captured paper environmentally friendly printing using eco-friendly digital toners and a toner recycling system used for waste and inks.
PACKAGING
Our packaging is simple, but this is done on purpose to minimise waste.
Our mail bags are made from sugarcane and are 100% recyclable, carbon neutral and made from a sustainable source.
Our polybags that our garments are packaged in are made from EPI degradable plastic and is 100% recyclable & biodegradable. This is for 80% of our garments with the aim to be 100% by 2021.
All greeting cards, wall art & notebooks come in a biodegradable cello.
LABELLING
All our back neck labels are made from 100% recycled polyester.
Our swing tickets are made from 100% recycled card and our label cords are made from 100% organic raw cotton.
From the 2nd collection onward our care labels are made from 100% recycled poly silk.
Keep an eye out for more developments on being a conscious fashion brand.
