Boody Sustainability Actions

Considered Designs

Our manufacturing process is designed to mitigate waste at every opportunity. Boody garments are knitted in tubes, resulting in very little wastage compared to traditional cut-and-sew manufacturing.

Naturally Organic

Bamboo doesn’t require pesticides, fertilizers or irrigation to enhance its growth; instead it grows like a weed. It has even been recorded to grow as fast as 47.6 inches in a 24-hour period!

Bamboo = No Waste

After harvesting, virtually every part of the plant is used to make a wide variety of products.

Clean Air

Ahhh, bamboo plantations produce 30% more oxygen than an equivalent area of trees. It also absorbs more carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases.

Yeah, We're The Total Package

Our packaging is made with recycled, post-consumer waste by FSC-certified suppliers, who prioritise the preservation of natural ecosystems and prevent deforestation. Plastic is not fantastic - we don’t use plastic and only print with vegetable-based inks. Our biodegradable bags Our relaxed essentials arrive in bags made using biodegradable, compostable and recyclable corn-based PLA. Thoughtfully-designed boxes that are both recycled and recyclable. Also serve as a great shoebox, storage box and gift box. Recycled and recyclable Our everyday basics are sent to you in boxes made from recycled cardboard and printed with vegetable ink.

Mindful Consumption

We use rainwater to grow our bamboo and all water used in the production process is recycled and reused.
