Apolis Holdings Sustainability Actions

B Corp certification since 2012

Apolis says it has been a Certified B Corporation since 2012. A B Corp is a company that has passed a test for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. The brand says this was part of its early identity in garment and textile work. This suggests Apolis has had a formal sustainability and social-impact framework in place for many years, rather than treating it as a recent add-on.

Works with artisan cooperatives

Apolis says it co-designs products with communities and cooperatives, then connects them to larger markets. It describes its bags as being made by mothers in Bangladesh who receive Fair Trade-certified wages, annual profit dividends, and a retirement fund. Fair Trade means workers are meant to get better pay and more stable working conditions. The brand also says each bag carries the coordinates of the cooperative and the artisan's signature, which is meant to show where and by whom it was made.

Uses a transparent design model

Apolis launched the Global Citizen Exchange as a long-term partnership with Indiegogo. The project was described as a transparent design and artisan marketplace that would show the design, manufacturing, and pricing process more clearly. The brand said the model was meant to support communities, reduce waste, and only produce what was ordered. That is a form of made-to-order production, which can help avoid overproduction and leftover stock.

Uses recycled glassware in a project

In its Global Citizen Exchange project, Apolis said it partnered with Studio Xaquixe in Mexico to create a 100% recycled collection of glassware. The brand framed this as part of a wider effort to support artisans and reduce waste in the production process. Recycled material use can lower demand for new raw materials, although the source text does not give full life-cycle data or independent proof of the environmental savings.
