Sustainability
We're working to build an environmentally responsible supply chain. From A to Z(ed).
Choices we make every day effect the future of our planet. As a business, we feel it's our responsibility to lead the way and provide a viable option for consumers that want to change their buying behaviour for the better. This is especially important in fashion, which has historically been a culprit of high carbon emissions and unsustainable resource consumption.
At Good For Sunday, we think there's a better way. We believe that when you do expand your wardrobe, it should be with pieces that are long lasting in both style and wear. Not trendy, but timeless. Crafted using high quality, ethical labour. Pieces that feature materials that have a lower impact on the planet, and use more sustainable cultivation practices.
Our materials
Shipping & packaging
Responsible packaging
Compostable & recyclable packaging
We've opted to invest in compostable & recycleable packaging for our mailers and product bags that individually wrap each item in your order.
Add our compostable packaging to your at-home compost and it will completely decompose within 6 months.
Our recycled packaging is made from 100% post-consumer waste, bringing new life to plastics that would have ended up in a landfill. They are also recyclable themselves.
Responsible shipping
Carbon offsetting
We automatically neutralize the shipping emissions of your order by donating to reforestation projects.
We've partnered with Pachama, a best-in-class organization in carbon neutral protocols and standards. Our contributions are currently funding the Jarí Para Forest Conservation Project in the Amazon Rainforest.
Responsible returns
EcoDrop: an eco-friendly returns alternative
Returns around the world contribute 16 million tonnes of CO2 from shipping trips and billions of pounds of landfill waste.
We've developed an innovative is customer-to-customer return network called EcoDrop that drastically reduces the environmental impact returns has on our planet.
Our business practices
Process efficiency
Our apparel factory uses state-of-the-art knitting machines to reduce energy consumption, and our cutting and sewing department recycles upwards of 50% of their textile waste. We even sweat the small things, like reusing boxes between our partners.
Water-based screen printing
Our screen prints use an eco-friendly water-based process. Water-based inks are free from harmful ozone depleting chemicals and aromatic hydrocarbons. This makes them better for the environment, and safe for our team to apply to the garment.
Reuse of water
Our dye house has one of the most advanced waste water treatment systems in the industry. The discharged water is treated for particulates, acidity, and temperature and sent back into the water system to be 100% reused.
