Here at TRADIE, we’re serious about doing our bit to look after the earth. That's why we are dedicated to minimising our environmental footprint. We have a long-term set of goals we are implementing with the aim of working towards a healthier and happier planet for future generations. Below are some of the things we are currently actioning and what we are still working towards.
OUR FABRICS
Organic Bamboo Fabric
We are now making one of our most popular range of products in viscose derived from organically grown bamboo. The brand of bamboo used in TRADIE undies is Tanboocel, more information can be found HERE. Bamboo grows quicker and uses less water than cotton, making it a more sustainable option than cotton. It also consumes significant amounts of CO2 emissions which help with removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. Viscose derived from bamboo is generally a lot softer than cotton, has natural antibacterial properties and wicks away sweat making it the perfect option to support your Crown Jewels. Below is the lifecycle of bamboo being processed into our garment.

Recycled Polyester Fabric
Here at TRADIE we have made the transition for all polyester underwear to now use recycled materials during the creation of our fabrics. That means each time you purchase a product with polyester in it, you'll know that you're doing your bit to recycle products that would have ended up in land fill. Below is the lifecycle of our recycled polyester from plastic through to garment
