embodying slow fashion for a fair supply chain
We are now certified B Corporation. As a B Corp, we’re part of a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact.
From fabric usage to batik process including packaging and supporting side projects, the social enterprise continues to grow its CSR practices for a better tomorrow.
Fabric used
Batik as a wax-resisting printing technique only requires natural fibers, which means we only can work with natural materials. From cotton to cotton silk including viscose, Batik Boutique only uses premium natural fabrics. Our accessories and boxers collection are made from batik remnants in an effort to up cycle remnant fabric thus reducing waste.
Batik process
We use low impact dyes and mix just enough dye to limit waste. Once the water has been boiled after using it during the washing process, we split the layers and keep the wax to reuse it. We also incorporate low impact and natural dyes in fabric production where possible.
Low water usage
We do our best to practice low water usage and always reuse when possible.
Packaging
In our efforts in sustainability is our online order packaging in eco-friendly bags and boxes. By using recycled and sustainable packaging, we reduce the impact brands like fast fashion use that damage our environment for future generations.
Corporate practices
We encourage our corporate clients to reduce the use of single use plastic for large orders and provide alternatives. For example, in one order we managed to convince a company to reduce 1.5 million bags for products we produced!
Our progress
Batik Boutique is working collectively towards a brighter tomorrow. As an award-winning social enterprise, we are accredited by the Malaysian government at the highest level of social impact, meeting UN SDG's 1, 5 & 8.
Growing efforts
To offset any 2022 emissions, we partnered with a local association that helps replanting mangrove trees to participate in the ecosystem. We continue to do our part to be a zero carbon footprint company.
