Why Choose Us
"Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything"
- George Bernad Shaw
We at Garb believe that it is high time to take environmental concerns seriously and that we should all start taking steps towards more sustainable and greener future.
Today, more than 300 million metric tons of plastic waste is generated by the textiles industry every year and out which more than 150 million is generated by the packaging industry alone.
Due to the rising pollution in the clothing industry, which is one the largest sector in the world, we at garb decided to change the same and bring a change in the society so that more people can be informed about it and are encouraged to change the way they choose their apparels.
While building this brand we have kept in mind to reduce the use of hazardous substances at their minimal and have brought some of the most unique designs.
Garb is a brand which associates itself with a mission to make this world a better place and that is why we have created not just our products eco friendly and from 100% organic cotton but have also made sure that in each of our process from producing, printing to delivering we minimize the environmental waste produced.
Cheerful Colors – Eco-Rapid-Neo Pigment Ink
It begins with ecological and sustainable textiles and continues with printing. What good is an ecological T-Shirt if you put on toxic color? Nothing at all!
That’s why we only use neo-pigment ink from Kornit. It is absolutely free of heavy metals, formaldehydes and alkylphenol ethoxylates (APE) and is therefore harmless for humans and nature. In addition, the ink is water-based and as a result also biodegradable. Even in the printing process, our digital printing machines from Kornit cut a good figure as well, as their water consumption is considerably lower than in classical printing processes.
Durable and optimized for recycling
We focus on simple designs, to ensure the textiles will never be out of fashion. But for demanding customers, we always offer a lot of different colors matching the trends.
The textiles are particularly durable due to their quality and even when they are worn-out, they can be recycled. The use of non-toxic, sustainably produced materials further reduces energy consumption in the recycling process.
Green packaging and shipping
There is too much plastic ending up in the ocean every day, that is why we simply do not use plastic packaging at all in order to act as environmentally conscious as possible. Our shipping packing consist of untreated paper and cardboard, what makes recycling more easily.
Wrapped up environmentally friendly, the products can be delivered climate-neutral as our shipment partner DHL provides a CO2 compensation with climate protection project. Where possible they even deliver mailings via e-vehicles and e-bikes.
In addition to the ecofriendly approach we have made sure the our products are of top quality which feels and looks good. We have combined some of the unique designs in some of the most amazing categories which we all love.
To reduce the emissions and to make this planet more greener we have also included a seed paper (A Flyer consisting of different seeds which can be directly planted in a pot and can be grown into a plant) in our packaging.
We really want all of you to join us in our journey and make this world a better place.
