CHANGING THE WAY WE DESIGN IN AUSTRALIA

THE ACTION PLAN WAS TO MAKE A COMPOSTABLE T-SHIRT.

OVER 2 BILLION EVERY YEAR ARE MADE WORLD WIDE.

AUSTRALIAN'S ALONE SEND 23 KGS OF TEXTILES PER PERSON EVERY YEAR TO LANDFILL,

MORE THAN 500,000 TONNES DUMPED AS WASTE.

two-thirds of those materials are manmade synthetic/plastic fibres that DON'T break down.

THE COMPOSTABLE T-SHIRT WAS DESIGNED AT THE END OF IT'S LIFE CYCLE TO COMPOST.

THIS IS NOT A FASHION LABEL IT IS AN ACTION PLAN TO REDUCE TEXTILES WASTE FROM GOING TO LANDFILL.






We acknowledge that the Wathaurong People of the Kulin Nation are the traditional custodians of the land on which The Compostable Designer operates. We pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge their wisdom, resilience and strength.

HEMP

Hemp requires no pesticides or herbicides & moderate water consumption when grown, unlike cotton.

Hemp grows in many different climates & is strong and durable outwearing most other fibres.

Our garments are soft, luxurious & breathable we will continue to push innovation blockages and keep searching for the truth in the product to be the best we can be.

The pros

No pesticides

Our fabrics are farmed free from harmful pesticides & herbicides commonly used in cotton farming. The farmers health and our consumers wellbeing are an important part of our ethos .

100% Compostable

Of course the material had to be compostable, but we've gone one step further and developed a product that is 100% compostable. That includes threads, swing tags and packaging.

No Chlorine Bleach

No chlorine bleach is used to lighten the fabrics. Low impact water soluble dyes & water based pigment inks are used for the screen printing.
