Our Sustainability Policy

At Inkthre­adable, we are committed to operating under ethical and sustainable practices during our production processes. 

One of the benefits of using our print-on-demand service is that your products are only made when they’re sold. This ensures that you’re not left with any overstock that you can’t sell which could end up in landfill. It also means that no excess energy and raw materials are used to create this stock. 

2017Forever
 

Sustainability Timeline:

Our sustainability journey began in 2017 when we moved to Kornit DTG printers and a paperless order management system, saving 8 tonnes of paper, or 192 trees, each year!

By using Kornit printers our inks are both vegan and eco-friendly. They're also OEKO-TEX® approved - they don't contain any regulated or unregulated chemicals harmful to the environment.

In 2018, after discovering that 14 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans each year, our co-founder Amy made it her mission to remove plastic from our packaging.
At the time, there wasn’t an off-the-shelf shipping bag that was plastic-free and could survive the postal network and British weather, so we had our own paper mail bags made. Clothing and mugs have shipped plastic-free ever since.
Poster tubes were harder, because they came with plastic end caps. We switched to a triangular tube made entirely of cardboard, and completed our move to plastic-free packaging in April 2019, saving 8 tonnes of single-use plastic a year.

In late 2025 we went back to round cardboard tubes for rolled prints, because the triangular tubes were being crushed in transit. The round tubes have plastic end caps, which are now the only plastic in our packaging, and we’re still looking for an alternative. Everything else we pack with, including the custom-designed boxes for framed prints, can be recycled or composted.

All textile wastes that are produced by our business are recycled and given a second life in products such as carpet underlay, which ensures they do not enter landfill. 
As of August 2019, Inkthre­adable began offsetting Carbon Footprint by funding the planting of trees in the North West of England.
We have now moved to do this in partnership with Ecologi. You can see our progress here - https://­­ecologi.­­com/­­inkthre­­adable

Products that mean more to the world!

In October 2018, we launched the Stanley/Stella brand into our product catalogue. 

“­Stanley/­­Stella is a premium clothing brand that’s eco-friendly with a strong social respon­sibility policy. The products that aren’t organic cotton are made from recycled materials, and they believe in building a better future for all.”
The brand's vision and ethical policies aligned perfectly with our own and they quickly became our highest recommended and top selling brand.
At the time, the blank clothing market had limited options for organic and sustainable garments. Any which were available were made by brands whose values didn’t so much align with the products they were trying to produce.
One of the things we love about Stanley/Stella is that sustainability is their core and they stand by this with an exclusively-sustainable product collection. 

In 2021, Inkthreadable became an official Stanley/Stella dealer - a title we’re extremely proud of! 
We’re committed to offering sustainable styles where no animal-based materials are used in the manuf­ac­turing or printing process. Paired with our vegan friendly inks, we have a wide range of vegan friendly products.
