Yuki Threads Sustainability - SustainabilityTracker.com

Yuki Threads describes its approach as a “never ending journey of refinement” and says it is committed to creating positive change within its industry and abroad. The brand states that it is not sustainable, but that it aims to reduce its impact through material choices, supply-chain transparency, and recycling initiatives. It uses organic cotton, GOTS and Fairtrade certification, recycled polyester from plastic bottles, GRS certified recycled polyester, Bluesign approved fabrics where possible, and C0-DWR. It also requires social compliance certificates from suppliers and supports environmental organisations through 1% for the Planet.

Organic cotton materials 2

The only cotton we use and have used for the past 6 years is Organic. The virgin cotton we use is 100% organic, always. This is sourced from certified farmers from India.

Textile recovery project

Through our partnership with Upparel you can now send back 10kg for just $25 and for doing so, we'll reward you with a $25 discount to use in our online store! Reuse. Repurpose. Recycle. If they're in good condition then we can donate them for someone else to love. If they're past their prime then they can turn them into something new, like tote bags! If they're damaged they can be used to create new yarn or shredded and used for things like insulation or stuffing for pet beds.
