SUSTAINABILITY AND ZERO WASTE

Sustainability 

 

 

Artisanns Nest was built on the foundation of sustainability and zero waste. We have been procuring and creating fabric textiles which are discarded as preconsumed fabric pieces. These include factory left overs, out of design stock, existing overstock, out of design fabrics taken from various factories and design houses. These are new pieces but would be discarded into landfills or burnt in incinerators ruthlessly harming our environment. We procure these high quality fabric pieces and create products out of them. We have been working on this for the past 9 years and we have saved more than 50 lakh kg of fabrics from going into landfills.

 

Reduction of Carbon Emission


 We not only try to utilise every inch of fabrics but also help in reducing carbon emissions along with other environmental harm. There is one cycle of waste of water and other natural resources that takes place during production of these fabric textiles. If these are again discarded into the landfills/ burnt off, it leads to the second cycle of pollution either through emission of Carbon di oxide into the earth or the air. We have been trying to save the planet by minimizing textile waste and elongating life of fabric pieces.

 

Solar Panels

we have installed solar panels since the past three years in our vicinity. These not only help in saving electricity but also helps in its generation sustainably.

 

Sustainable Packaging

 

We try to make every layer of packaging sustainable. From the recycled boxes to pouches made from left over sheer fabrics to the internal wrapping fabric sheet to finally buffer pillows made out of thrown away yarns/ tiny scraps. This not only zeros down the waste but also the helps in preventing another garbage pile being added to the landfills.
