WE ARE COMMITTED TO

LOOKING AFTER MOTHER NATURE

We are committed to looking after this planet and its many beautiful oceans so are doing as much as we can to help a bit along the way.

We proudly have our own fully compostable mailer bags and boxes made from 100% recycled materials. Every Sunward Bound purchase will come in fully compostable and recyclable packaging (even the label) to ensure we are doing our bit and not contributing to landfill. Our mailers break down fully in your home compost in 90-120 days.

MANUFACTURING

We are dedicated to constantly improving our manufacturing process and its impact on the environment. Our springsuits are made with the most eco friendly neoprene alternative on the market, naturally sourced limestone rubber.

Our hats are made in China by a company who is BSCI certified, and has passed all their fair work trade audits. This is to ensure we are not supporting factories that condone slave or child labour. All workers are paid above average, recieve multiple holidays per year and display ethical business behaviours.
