Sustainability

Linen is one of the most sustainable fabrics in the world. It is made
from the flax plant, which requires less water, pesticides, and fertilizers
than other crops. It is also biodegradable, durable, and breathable, making it
ideal for summer clothing. However, not all linen clothing is created equal.
Some linen products may still have negative impacts on the environment and
society due to factors such as dyeing, processing, and labor practices.

That’s why at Laume linen, we are committed to producing linen clothing
that is not only beautiful and comfortable, but also ethical and eco-friendly.
We are a brand of European linen clothing that offers high-quality linen
clothes for men, women and children. Our products are handmade in Lithuania by
skilled seamstresses who use natural and organic fabrics to create stylish and
cozy garments that are good for you and the planet.

Social commitment

At Laume linen, we believe that sustainability is not only about the
environment, but also about the people. We care about the well-being and
dignity of our workers, our customers, and our communities. That’s why we
adhere to the following principles:

Fair wages and working conditions: We pay
our seamstresses a fair wage that reflects their skills and experience. We
also provide them with a safe and comfortable working environment that
respects their rights and needs.

Local sourcing and production: We source
our fabrics from local suppliers who share our values of quality and
sustainability. We also produce our products locally in Lithuania, which
reduces our carbon footprint and supports our local economy.

Social responsibility: We donate a
percentage of our profits to local charities that support causes such as
education, health, and environmental protection. We also participate in
various social initiatives that promote sustainability and social justice.

Handmade in Lithuania

One of the distinctive features of our brand is that our products are
handmade in Lithuania by talented seamstresses who have years of experience in
crafting linen clothing. Our seamstresses are passionate about their work and
take pride in their creations. They use traditional techniques and tools to sew
each piece with care and attention to detail.

By choosing handmade products, you are supporting the artistry and
craftsmanship of our seamstresses. You are also getting a unique product that
has its own character and charm. No two pieces are exactly alike, which makes
them more special and personal.

On demand production/ handmade on order

Another way we reduce our environmental impact is by producing our
products on demand or handmade on order. This means that we only make what you
order, instead of mass-producing items that may end up unsold or wasted. This
way, we avoid overproduction, overstocking, and overconsumption.

By producing on demand or handmade on order, we also ensure that you get
a product that fits your preferences and needs. You can customize your order by
choosing your size, color, style, and design. You can also contact us if you
have any special requests or questions. We will do our best to accommodate your
wishes and deliver your product as soon as possible.

Natural fabric- fiber based andbiodegradable

Linen is one of the most natural
fabrics in the world. It is made from the fibers of
the flax plant, which is one of the oldest cultivated plants in human history1
. Linen has many benefits for
both you and the environment:

Linen is biodegradable: Unlike synthetic fabrics such as polyester
or nylon, which can take hundreds of years to decompose2
, linen can break down
naturally in a matter of weeks or months
3. This means that it does not contribute to landfill waste or
microplastic pollution.

Linen is durable: Linen is one of the
strongest natural fibers in the world. It can withstand high temperatures,
abrasion, washing, and wear and tear. It also becomes softer and more
pliable with each wash. Linen can last for decades if properly cared for.

Linen is breathable: Linen has a high
moisture absorption capacity, which means that it can keep you cool and
dry in hot weather. It also has a natural ability to regulate temperature,
which means that it can keep you warm in cold weather. Linen is also
hypoallergenic and antibacterial, which means that it is gentle on your
skin and health.

Zero-waste

At Laume linen, we strive to achieve zero-waste in our production
process. We do not throw away any fabric scraps that are left over from cutting
and sewing. Instead, we use them to make smaller objects such as accessories,
home decor, or toys. For example, we make scrunchies, headbands, masks,
pouches, coasters, napkins, or dolls from our fabric scraps.

By using our fabric scraps, we reduce our waste and maximize our
resources. We also create more value and variety for our customers. You can
find our zero-waste products on our website or in our store.

Cruelty free

Another aspect of our sustainability is that we are cruelty free. This
means that we do not use any animal products or by-products in our products or
production process. We do not use any leather, wool, silk, fur, feathers, or
down. We also do not use any animal-derived dyes, glues, or chemicals.

We choose to be cruelty free because we respect and care for all living
beings. We believe that animals are not ours to exploit or harm. We also
believe that animal products are not necessary or beneficial for fashion. There
are many plant-based alternatives that are more sustainable and ethical.

Sustainable recyclable packaging

The last step of our sustainability journey is our packaging. We use
sustainable recyclable packaging for our products. Our packaging materials are
made from recycled or renewable sources such as paper, cardboard, linen or cotton.
They are also biodegradable or compostable, which means that they can be
returned to nature without harming the environment.

We also minimize the amount of packaging we use for each product. We
only use what is necessary to protect and present the product. We do not use
any plastic bags, wraps. We also encourage our customers to reuse or recycle
our packaging materials.

No plastic

Finally, we are proud to say that we are a no plastic brand. We do not
use any plastic in our products or packaging. Plastic is one of the most
harmful materials for the environment and society. It is made from fossil
fuels, which contribute to climate change and pollution. It is also
non-biodegradable, which means that it does not decompose and accumulates in
landfills and oceans. It poses a threat to wildlife and human health.

We avoid plastic because we want to protect our planet and its inhabitants.
We believe that plastic is not worth the convenience or cost. There are many
alternatives that are more sustainable and eco-friendly.
