At Guava Babe we are making a conscious effort to become an eco-friendly, sustainable brand. While we recognise that being completely sustainable is something that will take time, we are fully committed to this process and already have steps in place to ensure our footprint is as green as our fave lime L.A swimsuit!

Fabrics

All of our solid colour bikinis are created using an innovative fabric called Amni Soul Eco@. This fabric has been developed to enable garments to quickly decompose when disposed of correctly in landfill (and not before!), making the garments eco-friendly. While other garments take decades to decompose, it only takes Amni Soul Eco® about 3 years to disappear from the planet, reducing the environmental impact and ensuring a better world for future generations. Further benefits of this sustainable yarn are its inherent properties of softness, breathability, durability and performance.

Packaging

Due to trade regulations, we are required to ship all garments in bags. By swapping to compostable and biodegradable packaging, we save thousands of single-use plastic bags from entering the environment. We have chosen to partner with Hero Packaging, who supply zero waste mailers made of cornstarch and cassava roots which leave no waste or toxins behind!

Prints

We have chosen to use an eco-friendly printing technique called sublimation printing. In this method, heat-activated dyes are used to transfer prints from the source to textile by the process of sublimation. This printing method is an environmentally conscious design process as it results in absolutely zero waste! Unlike many other dyeing processes which waste large amounts of water, sublimation printing requires no water and uses safe dye-based inks.
