Ethics at Inkabilly
A Commitment to Sustainability and Responsibility
At Inkabilly, we believe that doing good for the planet and all its inhabitants is just as important as making beautiful things. That's why we try to do the right thing and minimise our environmental footprint in all areas of our business.
Here's how we put our values into action:
- Ethical Manufacturing: For our tableware, we have partnered with a manufacturing company that shares our commitment to ethical business practices, fair treatment of workers, and social responsibility.
- Sustainable Materials: Our coasters and placemats are made from FSC-certified hardboard, which means the wood comes from responsibly managed forests that prioritize biodiversity and the well-being of local communities. Additionally, 10% of the hardboard is made from recycled sawmill waste. Our greetings cards are all printed on recycled cardstock.
- Chemical-Free Production: The manufacturing process of our coasters and placemats avoids harmful chemicals like phthalates and formaldehyde. The coating applied is lead-free, contains no heavy metals, and is cured using a low-energy process that generates zero emissions.
- Durability and Reduced Consumption: We design our products to be long-lasting and beautiful, so you won't need to replace them often. This reduces consumerism and the associated waste.
- Handmade with Care: The majority of our products are printed or handmade to order, which means they require less energy and resources compared to mass-produced items. This also reduces the waste associated with speculative production.
- Sustainable Packaging: We have eliminated plastic from our packaging, using recycled, compostable and recyclable materials instead.
- Honesty and Transparency: We are committed to being honest and transparent about our products and practices. We believe that our customers have the right to know where their products come from and how they are made.
In addition to the above, we are constantly striving to improve our ethical and sustainable practices. We believe that every small step counts, and we are committed to making a positive impact on the world and its inhabitants.
By choosing Inkabilly products you can be confident that they have been made with care and integrity. We are proud to be a company that makes products you can feel good about buying.
