Namaste supports
ethically made Fair Trade products, created with the least possible
environmental impact. All goods are carefully sourced from eco-friendly,
naturally sustainable and recycled materials wherever possible.
Even some of our "new” collections are old! Popular recycled ranges include those made from cotton, aluminium, glass and PET yarn from recycled plastic bottles. A fresh approach this year has seen the introduction of the Vintage Collection; comprising an eclectic mix of antique, reclaimed and salvaged pieces.
It doesn’t stop there! Through close working relationships with our selected suppliers, we identify required improvements and work together to make them happen.
We scrutinise our own activities too, with the aim of minimising our use of resources, identifying and implementing ways of reducing consumption and re-using everything we can.
Recycled PET Yarn
Made from 100% Recycled Plastic Bottles.
The production of PET Yarn is an extraordinary evolution in recycling. Plastic bottles are broken down into a fine fibre suitable for producing a strong yarn, known as PET Yarn. From this, a textile is produced which is highly versatile and suitable for making into a variety of useful new products.
Recycled Iron
Scrap used iron is kept out of landfill by being recycled into new products. It also reduces the need to mine for more materials.
Recycled Aluminium
All
our aluminium is hand-cast using traditional methods. Re-use reduces
landfill and prevents carbon emissions from new aluminium processing by
up to 90%.
Recycled Fabric
Many of our products incorporate waste fabrics from the textile industry. Beautiful sari material, hard wearing denim and cotton are prevented from going to landfill and made into attractive, useful new goods like stationery, biodegradable gift wrap and furnishings.
Very Vintage
New
and exclusive to Namaste, don’t miss vintage style furniture and
accessories. Many are one-off pieces or have limited availability.
Sideboards and cabinets, storage trunks and chests, bookshelves and
tables, all items of distinction, intended to be loved.
