At Dryrobe®, we’re committed to reducing the impact our business has on the environment.
We’re aware that our manufacturing and distribution processes release greenhouse gases and are doing our best to limit our carbon intensity. Each year, we work to improve the calculation of our emissions and take meaningful actions, aligned with our Sustainability Strategy, with a strong focus on transportation emissions.
Some of the steps that we’re taking…
Buying less, buying better
Overconsumption is placing a huge amount of pressure on our planet’s resources, and we want to encourage our customers not to buy more than they need. That’s why, since Dryrobe® was founded, every product we’ve produced has been built to last for years and years.
Circularity
Dryrobe® products are built to last, but when yours no longer fits or suits you, Reskinned helps it continue the adventure. Through our take-back scheme, old Dryrobe® Advance changing robes are repaired or responsibly recycled, and you can also shop pre-loved Dryrobe® gear at a lower price.
Bloom Algae
BLOOM™ has innovatively transformed algae destined for landfill or incineration into useful materials for products. This helps to lower reliance on virgin materials, reduce carbon intensity, and restore aquatic habitats by clearing away algae. The cushioned soles of Dryrobe® Thermal Boots are made with 20% algae-based Bloom Rise™ and 80% EVA rubber.
Responsible packaging
The majority of the packaging is made out of FSC-certified and recycled cardboard. This ensures that the material for our packaging is responsibly sourced. In 2024, we switched to FSC-certified paper mailing bags for smaller items to reduce the usage of cardboard. We are working hard to remove the small number of 100% recycled polyester bags from some sales channels.
Our materials
PFC-free waterproof finishing
We use PFC-free BIONIC-FINISH ECO Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finishing on all of our waterproof products. This plant-based solution doesn't contain any harmful compounds, delivering high-performance, long lasting weather resistance and reducing the impact on the environment.
Recycled nylon
All our Dryrobe® Advance changing robes and accessories are made with 100% recycled nylon, approved by Global Recycle Standard. This breathable, weatherproof shell fabric is made with pre-consumer recycled nylon that would otherwise be destined for landfill.
Recycled polyester
The super warm, fast-drying fleece used in our Dryrobe® Advance changing robes is made from 100% recycled polyester, approved by the Global Recycle Standard and certified OEKO-TEX Standard 100. This high-performance fabric is made from recycled post-consumer plastic.
Organic cotton
We only use 100% organic cotton for our Towel Dryrobe® range, certified by The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). GOTS is the worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibres, backed up by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain.
What matters
Accountability
As a business, we have the responsibility to be transparent and open with what we are doing. Since 2022, we have produced an annual ‘Sustainability and Social Impact’ report which looks back at what we have achieved so far and our plans for the year ahead and beyond.
Trusted supply chain
We believe that collaboration and transparency with our suppliers are crucial to making real and lasting changes. That's why we choose to work with trusted suppliers with whom we’ve built positive relationships. All of our supplier factories maintain SMETA approval or are BSCI audited.
Community projects
Giving back to our community has always been important to us. We founded the Dryrobe® Warmth Project to support charities and non-profits that share our values of protecting the environment and promoting wellbeing through outdoor activity.
#OptOutside
Black Friday really works for some businesses; however, it promotes overconsumption and mass purchasing as a result of overproduction, which leads to high energy consumption and water usage. Every year, we opt out of Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales, closing our office and giving our staff the day off to enjoy getting outside in nature, encouraging our customers to do the same.
