Our Eco update

December 14, 2021

Repreve swim fabric - from recycled plastic bottlesAnwar is modelling a pair of our new, R2022 swim shorts made to the same exacting standards as our existing ones:

  • quick dry
  • lightweight
  • comfortable
  • durable
  • soft

....and with the same highly prized features of:

  • side pockets
  • sealed back pocket
  • elasticated waistband with adjustable drawstring

BUT these ones additionally have 100% recycled polyester lining mesh and the outer shell is made from 53% recycled plastic bottles woven into a high quality Repreve fabric. Since 2007, Repreve has recycled more than 31 billion plastic bottles and repurposed them into fibres which can be used in all manner of products and in this way the plastic bottles are removed from going directly into the waste cycle.

The dyes used in the process of producing our Lotty B prints for the new Pink House Mustique R2022 collections are OEKO-TEX certified. OEKO-TEX is a worldwide standard to give consumers confidence that no harmful substances are used in the dyes or in the printing process.

Our clothing is shipped to us in our new compostable dust bags, within recyclable cardboard outers. We ship to you in acid free tissue and 100% recyclable cardboard postal boxes, both manufactured in the UK.

Limited Edition Lotty B PJs made in the UKWe have now launched the first in a series of Lotty B Limited Edition garments, the first of which - these fabulous pair of silk pyjamas (above) - have been made here in the UK. Read more here.

We endeavour to keep our promises to you and although getting to this stage has taken slightly longer than we had hoped, we are sure you will understand why - everything seems to have taken longer since March 2020.

A part of every single working day at the Pink House is spent thinking of ways to do things in a more sustainable fashion and from the recycling in our warehouse to repurposing all manner of items in our office at HQ, we are all keen to keep improving. 

However, we promise that the quality of our products and our service will never be compromised!
