The fashion industry needs to make fundamental changes to protect the climate from harm. At Techno Outfit, we're always striving to do better for our planet. Our goal is to provide a less wasteful way of production through products made on demand.
Around 85% of all textiles produced by the fashion industry end up in landfills, making it a major contributor to environmental damage. One in every five garments reaches a landfill without being worn even once. When shopping from Techno Outfit, you get apparel that's created only as the order is placed, creating less fabric waste than conventional manufacturing.
As of May 2021, we’ve started using packaging made of post-consumer recycled plastics for all apparel orders. We’ve also reduced the use of packaging altogether.
Around 80% of Techno Outfit orders are delivered in the same region they’re fulfilled. Having fulfillment centers close to our customers is good both for the business and the planet. Strategically located fulfillment centers allow for faster shipping times and lower shipping costs, and it also helps with reducing the CO₂ emissionsproduced when transporting orders.
The better the quality, the longer the product lasts. Before we add new products, we do durability, wash, and wear tests to make sure they’ll stand the test of time. Producing long-lasting products means reducing new purchases. We work with suppliers that produce high-quality products that last many washes, keeping print colors vibrant and the fabric soft.
Most of our products are printed with the direct-to-garment (DTG) technique. With DTG, ink is sprayed onto the garment, which helps it soak better into the fabric and makes the print less prone to fading. We use water based inks which reduce environmental waste
