Our choice of clothing and accessories says a lot about us. In addition to the style of clothing, they can also reveal a lot about the wearer's values. Because clothing can be more or less in harmony with the aspect of environmental friendliness. At the Faedah Collection, we attach great importance to sustainability - from the sourcing of materials to the sale of finished products. You can find out here how we realise these high standards for manufacturing methods and co. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
High-quality, durable and renewable raw materials
The raw materials for textile production form the basis for sustainable clothing and other products. The items in our range are made from the following materials, among others:
- Cotton: The choice of GOTS-certified organic cotton or other high-quality cotton types of high OEKO standards, which have been produced under strict conditions, guarantees high quality and strong durability. They form the basis for your long-lasting enjoyment of shirts, trousers etc. Cotton is also a plant-based product. Organic cotton excludes the use of pesticides and fertilisers that are harmful to health and the environment in cotton cultivation, which prevents further damage to the environment and also improves working conditions during harvesting.
- TENCEL™: In addition to cotton, we also offer garments made from TENCEL Lyocell™ fibres. The basis for this is wood, often in the form of eucalyptus. The processing and production is resource-efficient and is achieved with the use of non-toxic solvents. TENCEL™ is also considered robust and durable - and is biodegradable.
- Alpaca wool: As a renewable natural material, Alpaca wool is an important material in our shop. Responsible manufacturers keep the animals in a species-appropriate manner and treat them with respect. The result is a fibre that is obtained in an environmentally friendly way and, when cared for properly, has long-lasting positive properties: it warms in the cold and cools in the heat.
These are just a few examples of (potentially) sustainable materials with a manageable environmental impact. Of course, processing and textile production are also important. In order to focus on products that are in harmony with nature and people in this area too, we are proud to offer brands that share our convictions and have an eye on their environmental impact.
What is important to the brands?
Wether APU KUNTUR,Indigo Luna or Yinside Yoga: they all have an environmentally conscious focus with a high level of social compatibility - and therefore share our values. Indigo Luna uses plant-based instead of chemical dyes for colouring and uses leftover fabric to make hair ties, for example. What's more, quality over quantity applies in a special way, as only limited quantities are produced instead of producing vast quantities for the fashion industry that are ultimately not sold.
The people involved in the production also benefit from safe working conditions and fair wages. Yinside Yoga also supports Bali's local economy with its production processes and emphasises environmentally friendly production methods that do not harm anyone. The company emphasises its sustainable orientation by focusing on natural materials.
At APU KUNTUR, nature takes centre stage and people and animals are treated with respect. The alpacas are kept in an environmentally friendly manner and in accordance with high animal welfare standards, and the employees receive a fair wage. This means that the company complies with fair trade guidelines.
The combination of fair working conditions for employees, environmentally friendly processes and renewable resources forms the basis for sustainable clothing and ethical production methods in the fashion industry.
Faedah Collection and the sustainable focus
We at the Faedah Collection choose the fashion companies in our shop with care. Only if they go hand in hand with our values can we work together. We are therefore proud to be able to sell such renowned and high-quality brands.
Another aspect is that these are timeless cuts and designs, rather than short-lived, modern items of clothing from the fast fashion industry. This means there is no need to constantly change your wardrobe and you are always stylishly on the go. This is supported by the high quality of the materials. It is also in keeping with the idea of valuing textiles and the people involved in their manufacture to treat the clothing with care and look after it properly so that it can be worn for a long time. We are happy to provide appropriate tips for woollen clothing for example. Away from the throwaway mentality and towards a sustainable wardrobe.
Recycled packaging for reuse: our RePack
peaking of the journey: as an online shop, it is important to us that orders reach our customers quickly and undamaged. The fact that additional packaging material is required compared to shopping in a local shop is inevitable. In order to minimise our ecological footprint, however, we rely on so-called RePacks. All purchases in our shop are delivered in one of these RePack .
