OUR MATERIALS
SMARTER CHOICES
When designing the ED&COMPANY line we wanted to ensure we made smart material choices, to create products that stand the test of time and have the durability to stand up to the toughest wear and tear.
We were also conscious we wanted to limit our environmental impact. That's why we've used 100% recycled RPET fabrics on our bags and are GRS Recycled Certified. Plus, our clutches are made with 57% pre-consumer recycled leather, which means we're helping to reduce waste and support sustainable practices.
We believe that even the smallest details can make a difference, which is why we've incorporated recycled materials, like the zipper tape and the mesh in our pockets, into our designs. We're dedicated to creating products that are not only stylish, versatile and durable but also conscious of our impact on the planet.
We may not be perfect, but we're always looking to do better, and we hope you'll join us on this journey.

THE BREAKDOWN
What is RPET and how Is RPET Made?
RPET (Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate) is recycled plastic. It's the plastic used to make water bottles and PET packaging that would otherwise end up in the rubbish or the ocean. Through the following process it is recycled into fabric.
What is Pre-consumer recycled leather?
Pre-consumer leather is the off-cuts or left over leather scraps from manufacturing, shaved into fine fibres and combined with water and a binding agent to create new, usable leather material.
Our bags may be made from the cutting room floor, but they're anything but scraps!
