Sustainable Scrub Set - Geopatch
SCRUB SETS ARE PRE-ORDER ON A MONTHLY BASIS. MATERIAL IS ORDERED AT THE END OF EACH MONTH AND TURN AROUND TIME FROM THIS POINT IS 2 WEEKS.
Sustainable scrubs are made from organic cotton printed with biodegradable inks to
reduce their ecological impact. The fabric uses less water and produces far less waste
than regular cotton other dying processes.
Why organic cotton?
To put it simply, organic cotton is a more sustainable solution. It is grown without
pesticides from seeds that have not been genetically modified.
Organic farming practices avoid using harmful chemicals while aiming for environmental
sustainability and the use of fewer resources. Chemical-free agricultural land even stays
fertile much longer than land hampered by the constant use of pesticides, so organic
cotton farmers generally have a longer cotton commodity lifespan than otherwise.
Organic cotton requires up to 90% less water and produces fewer CO2 emissions than
standard cotton fabric. For organic cotton fabric to be classified as such, all pesticides,
fertilisers and herbicides used in its production must also be organically certified.
What are “eco inks"?
All my sustainable scrubs are printed with high end, biodegradable “eco inks”. The digital
textile printers I utilise uses an extremely sustainable process without using or producing
any waste water, effluent or large amounts of energy.
Water consumption during the printing process is less than 2% of what is required for
screen printing. All inks are water based, biodegradable and Oeko Tex certified. There is no leftover dyes or inks between jobs so there is no waste water generated by a washing
process.
Not only are they focusing on reducing environmental impact they are ethically certified.
ALL tops made to order with custom prints. Turn around time is generally 7-10 days
