Sustainability has become one of the most important topics in recent years. People have become increasingly more interested in following a green lifestyle and buying products that don't do harm to nature. If you’re looking for creating a sustainable product, you should also take its production into consideration. The path for sustainability begins before you start production - so here are 5 ideas to be sustainable during the production of your accessories.
1 - Don’t use materials that aren't biodegradable
The core of each product certainly is its material. To create a sustainable accessory, you should keep in mind that there are many popular materials that aren’t biodegradable, such as plastics, vinyl and polyurethane - to name a few. Try to stay away from these materials and search for sustainable alternatives.
2- Make sure your consumption for product make most of the products that the making
You can guarantee that you will make the most of your materials by using computerized grading and marking services, such as Create a Marker NYC. That way, you will ensure that you have the perfect configuration for maximum consumption, generating less waste and also maximizing the cost-effectiveness of your production.
3 - Don't order materials you don't need.
If you want to reduce the waste generated by your production, you should also make sure you’re ordering the right number of materials so you don’t have leftovers. To ensure that you buy only the necessary materials for your production, make sure to check out our sourcing services.
4- Inquire factory if they have a recycling program
Make sure your factory gives proper disposal to leftover materials. At the Clutch Made Factory, our material leftovers are sent for recycling, where they gain new purposes, or proper categorical disposal. Read more about our sustainable practices.
5 - Request that your product is shipped in as few plastic bags as possible
