Sustainability at ToldPrint™

🌿Made responsibly. Worn consciously.

Practical, transparent, and continuously improving. We design with purpose and produce on-demand to reduce waste and protect the Mediterranean we celebrate.

💎 Our Principles

  • On-demand first: produce only what's ordered to limit overproduction.
  • Longevity: prioritize durable blanks, clean graphics, and repair-friendly care.
  • Traceability: work with vetted partners and publish what we can verify.
  • Local-first logic: route production closer to the customer when possible.

🤝 Ethical Production

All ToldPrint™ partners follow ethical labor and environmental standards. We work only with facilities that maintain fair wages, safe workplaces, and transparent supply chains.

  • Verified compliance with local labor laws
  • No forced or child labor in any facility
  • Commitment to diversity and safe working conditions
  • Regular performance and safety audits by production partners
  • Transparency about sourcing regions and materials

We believe sustainability starts with respect — for people, for craft, and for the communities behind each product.

🧵 Materials

We select materials for durability, comfort, and lower impact where feasible.

  • Cotton blends: chosen for hand-feel and longevity in everyday wear.
  • Embroideries & inks: partners use industry-standard threads and water-based or low-impact inks where available.
  • Certifications: when a product page lists a certification (e.g., OEKO-TEX® or US Cotton Trust Protocol), it's based on supplier documentation.

We avoid blanket claims — every certification is item-specific and verifiable.

🏭 Production

  • On-demand network: multiple facilities reduce transport and lead times.
  • Quality controls: stitch density, colorfastness, and shrinkage tests per partner SOPs.
  • Responsible disposal: misprints are minimized; test runs and returns are reused where partner programs exist.

📦 Packaging

  • Right-size mailers: reduce void fill and shipping mass.
  • Paper-first: prioritize recyclable paper or cardboard where possible.
  • No excess: minimal inserts; only care information and essential branding.

📊 Footprint & KPIs

  • Made-to-order rate: ≥95% of orders produced on-demand.
  • Defect rate: ≤1.5% remakes (quality or transit damage).
  • Local routing: ≥70% of orders fulfilled in-region.
  • Packaging: ≥80% of shipments use recyclable mono-material mailers.

Targets reflect current goals and are updated as our supply network improves.

🗺️ Roadmap

  1. Material transparency: expand item-level information on composition and end-of-life.
  2. Repair & care guides: publish practical maintenance and repair tips for longevity.
  3. Lifecycle data: integrate estimated product lifespan metrics where available.
  4. Take-back pilot: explore a small-scale return-to-reuse initiative.
