Making the right choice for the environment may not be the easiest way to go, but we have made a commitment to ourselves and mother nature to produce sustainably.
Our first step was to choose organic and bio-degradable fabrics. Here, fabrics are sourced from the finest farms and are devoid of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. With this small but significant step, we ensured that the soil and water were not adversely affected by Oru Nka.
Next, we adopted the use of chemical-free, natural, and mineral dyes. This worked wonders in establishing a give-and-take relationship with mother nature. The wastewater from dyeing can be used to irrigate crop fields.
With packaging, we knew we couldn’t consider virgin plastic. So we chose recycled plastic and paper too.
We also keep on trying to use the cut-out fabrics innovatively, to minimize waste. So our limited merchandise is a by-product of this initiative. We have come a long way but also know that the road to being an environmentally conscious brand does not end here. We always strive to do more and better!
