LARi Active

Our Sustainability Framework

• Emissions & Key Environmental Issues

  What is your company doing to reduce your emissions or combat key environmental issues (e.g. waste (packaging, end of life product strategy or recycling), biodiversity, land use, water, chemical use, energy use, and natural resource use etc.)?

  The fashion industry is notorious for the mistreatment of workers and also as one of the world's biggest polluters. We want to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. By wearing LARi we want you to feel good on the inside as well as look good on the outside. We pushed this commitment throughout our operations, from using compostable packaging that can be reuse, choosing the courier partner that offsetting carbon emissions, choosing manufacturing that has the same ethical values, last but not least, most of LARi pieces are made from recycled nylon that goes through the process of regeneration and repurposing of fishing nets collected from oceans and fabric scraps destined for landfill allows for new products to be created without ever using new resources.

• Materials

  How are the products your company offers made from environmentally friendly materials (e.g. recycled, organic materials)?

  With a commitment to sustainability, most fabrics for the pieces are responsibly sourced from reputable suppliers who are pioneers in nylon regeneration technologies. This process of regeneration and repurposing of fishing nets collected from oceans and fabric scraps destined for landfill allows for new products to be created without ever using new resources. The resulting nylon is exactly the same as brand new nylon created the old-fashioned way from finite resources such as coal and petroleum. Not only they are made from recycled materials, but they also have key features such as muscle control, shape retention, excellent coverage, ultra chlorine resistant, perfect fit, UV protection, two-way stretch, resistance sun cream and oil.

• Service Offering

  How are the service/s you offer environmentally friendly?

  We care about the environment, so we use compostable mailers made from a combination of corn starch waste and PBAT, a polymer that is engineered to be fully biodegradable when composted. It also contains PLA which is made up of plant materials including waste corn. Their products are certified by Australasian Bioplastics Association as home compostable AS-5810, and since the Australian Standard is one of the most rigorous in the world, rest assured that these mailers are perfectly safe for organic compost. .

• Supply Chain

  Do you partner with ethical factories that meet international labor standards? What processes have you implemented to make your supply chain more sustainable?

  Over 10% of global CO2 and equivalent emissions are from transport and logistics. This includes online shopping deliveries and the environmental impact caused by the logistics involved is huge. By partnering with Sendle, we support their efforts in offsetting carbon emissions. They do this by funding sustainability projects and genuinely world-changing initiatives aimed at preserving and regenerating natural ecosystems.

  How does your company give back to the community (e.g. financial donations, volunteering, partnerships etc.)?

  We at LARi truly believe how important it is to give back to the community. We pledge to dedicate 10% of our total profits each year to our chosen charity organisation.

• Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

  How has your company made a commitment to achieve and maintain inclusion & diversity (e.g. Gender / Race / Ethnicity / National Origin / Sexual Orientation / Religion / Disability / Age)?

  One of our core values is for you to feel empowered every time you wear your LARi.Active. We start this by empowering those who create your LARi for you. We only manufacture our pieces in ethical factories that employ adults who are paid a living wage, working in a safe and respectful environment. We want you to know that your LARi is made by people who chose to come to work and be treated with dignity.
