Sustainability and Our Sustainable Fabrics

Over the past decade, climate change has increasingly become a topic of debate within the production industry and with consumer products. At Well Elite, we hold our stance in stating that climate change is an inevitability if products and production do not become more sustainable. This leads to our commitment in shifting our production towards using more and more sustainable materials and techniques.

Commonly used materials for swimwear, such as Polyester and Nylon are synthetic and harmful to the environment. A byproduct of manufacturing Nylon is nitrous oxide, which is 310 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas. Polyester also uses large amounts of water and energy in it's production. Furthermore, these synthetic materials can be prone to shedding microfibres which can be dangerous to wildlife as well as polluting the environment.

Our products are also seasonal, resulting in a consumer behaviour where products are thrown away for newer ones. As such, synthetic fabrics are also difficult to decompose and burn, causing pollution and crowding landfills such as those in Hong Kong. Hence, we have a wide range of recycled fabric to meet our customer's extensive requirements.

All our recycled fabrics are also all GRS certified. Our factories are also BSCI credited, and all fabrics and materials are REACH and OEKOTEX accredited.

環保材料

最近這十幾年,氣候變化為人類及我們這產業帶來挑戰。如果我們不再用可持續的材料和製造方式,氣候暖化將是一個不可逆轉的未來。因此,Well Elite 堅定地選用環保用物料和製造方式。

泳衣常用的材料包括聚酯纖維和尼龍合成,這些都會破壞環境;比如,尼龍其中一個副產品是笑氣而它是一種溫室氣體,相對於二氣化碳對環境破壞多310倍。而聚酯纖維的生產需要大量的水和電力。合成物質也會脫落超細纖維,對於動物和環境的帶來嚴重的後果。

這行業是有季節性的,而造就了個挺浪費的消費行為。每一季,舊或過時的衣物會被扔掉,而消費者會去買新的產品,在垃圾填裏佔用大量空間,再者合成質扔了會比較難分解而對環境帶來重大影響。所以我們選擇多種的環保材料來滿足我們客戶的要求和水準,同時保護環境。

我們的環保材料全都有GRS認證.我們的工廠也有 BSCI 認證,面料和材料有 REACH 和 OEKOTEX 認證。
