Charlie Mae Swimwear Sustainability Actions

Uses regenerated nylon

Nylon waste recovery includes pre-consumer waste chips & yarns, as well as post consumer waste such as clothes, shoes, fishing nets, and carpet. The nylon is gathered, goes through a depolymerization process, reduced to its original form through a refinement and polymerization process. The nylon is then regenerated into textile yarn and woven into eco friendly fabric.

Uses recycled polyester fabric

Charlie Mae Swimwear says it uses Vita PL to make its eco friendly swimwear, a sustainable techno-fabric made of polyester. It is made of 100% recycled polyester from pre and post consumer materials.

Supports Healthy Seas

The "Healthy Seas" initiative put together a non governmental association with several other businesses sharing a common mission: cleaning our planet and waters from pollution, including the ghost fishing nets which kill so many sea creatures. Through the organisation, the fishing nets are recovered together with some other materials, are then delivered to a regeneration plant where, thanks to a sophisticated and complex process, the above mentioned materials are turned into recycled fabrics.

Donates to animal welfare

Each year a portion of our profits are donated to animal welfare groups in Australia such as RSPCA, Sydney dogs and cats home, Monicas doggy rescue and Animal welfare league NSW.
