Bisley Workwear Sustainability Actions

Better packaging

The environmental footprint of packaging should be a major consideration for organisations. As part of our commitment to circularity, we have partnered with Better Packaging Company to transition our garment bags. In 2022 all of our bags will be made using certified recycled ocean-bound post-consumer plastics. Better Packaging Co. work with coastal communities that are most impacted by the compounding effects of pollution and poverty, to clean up their beaches and riverways. This program provides economic development within these communities, as well as a more responsible packaging option for Bisley

Hangers made from ocean waste

As part of our commitment to the circular economy and utilising re-imagined materials, we have partnered with Arch&Hook to transition to a certified recycled ocean-bound waste hanger program. The hangers themselves are also recyclable. Alongside this environmental improvement, we have more visibility into our value-chain as every organisation involved in manufacuring these hangers is audited for integrity and social compliance. By partnering with organisations that offer credible certifications, Bisley is confident about the positive environmental impacts it is making through these decisions. Bisley has also partnered with Arch & Hook to produce our buttons manufactured from the same ocean-bound plastic innovation. This results in Bisley diverting 7.26 tonnes of virgin plastic out of our products annually. Both the hanger and button programs divert post consumer waste back into the system, which could have otherwised ended up polluting our waterways.

Cleaner oceans and rivers

Bisley is committed to a circular economy. As part of this commitment, we have joined the WWF - EMF Business call for a UN treaty on plastic pollution. We have begun transitioning our commercial and non commerical goods to remove virgin plastics, and replace them with solutions that are certified recycled, and recyclable. We anticipate this roll out in late 2022.

Recycled yarns from ocean plastic

In 2021 Bisley introduced certified recycled polyester yarns into our product range. Made from post-consumer plastic waste, these fibres divert pollution that could otherwise end up in landfill or our water ways. Through careful R&D, we utilise these fibres to develop our durable workwear range. Transitioning conventional polyester to certified recycled options, lessens our dependance on fossil fuels and diverts waste from landfills and waterways.
