Here at The Chimp Store, we endeavor to do all we can to reduce our impact on the Earth. We've recently made some changes behind the scenes, that will be soon to arrive at your doorsteps whenever you place an order.
Our new sustainable packaging is produced using renewable resources, is fully recyclable and is also biodegradable. So once you've received your order and you're finished with it's mailer bag, be sure to pop it in your paper recycling box.
As well as our new mailing bags, we have also introduced paper packing tape. That means no more nasty plastic packing tape. It's just as secure, and looks even better with our added custom branding, completing our mission for sustainable packaging.
The Chimp Store also work with DPD as one of our couriers - DPD have committed to a carbon neutral pledge. By measuring their CO2 emissions, striving to reduce them, and by offsetting the remaining emissions. This makes the planet better for everyone.
We have also started to introduce more brands with a sustainable focus into our mix. Australia's Afends are the champions of a well-considered eco friendly approach to creating their men's and women's lines. From the use of Hemp and Organic Cotton, they have started what they call 'The Hemp Revolution' - opting for this fast growing, durable and Earth positive material over others where possible.
Other brands we work with have committed to more sustainable practices also. For example Tommy Jeans partner with the BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) to source fair trade organic cotton.
adidas Originals have introduced recycled polyester pieces into their lines, giving new life to material that may have otherwise ended up in landfill.
As we continue to improve our own practices as well as our sustainable brand mix, we will update the info on this page. In the meantime, why not shop our New Arrivals section and pick your favourite pieces to arrive in our new branded paper mailing bags?
