ABOUT OUR PHILOSOPHY + APPROACH
From day one, providing lasting product offerings has been central to what we do. At Ace of Something we are aware of both the environmental and social impacts of the industry. We are looking to continually reflect and react in order to make meaningful impact. In saying that, here is what we have done so far.
Our product
From the initial idea to the end product, we are always looking to make improvements.
Social: We are committed to prioritising ethical and sustainable work and supply chain practices. This includes the assessment of our prospective suppliers’ workplace practices, not only the quality of their product. We believe every single person is deserving of a safe and fair working environment and strive to ensure this for all of our employees as well as those of our suppliers. To do this, we regularly liaise with our partners to ensure these measures and standards are being honoured.
Environmental: The impacts of material production and manufacturing that the fashion industry is responsible for cannot be ignored. We make it our business to understand how our product is produced, the impacts of production and where the raw materials are originally sourced. This traceability enables us to make informed and appropriate sourcing decisions.
Our wool - 100% Australian wool products are just that, all the wool is sourced right here in Australia.
Our vegan leather - detailing featured across a large amount of our product offerings is made of our vegan leather. The development and production of this material does not harm any animals and gives a realistic leather-look finish.
Our operations
From getting the product from point to point and providing our service to you, we are always looking to make improvements.
Environmental: It goes far beyond the product itself; reducing our impact in the form of emissions, waste and packaging, is all part of our plan in reducing environmental impact.
Packaging - all our orders are carefully packaged in a cardboard box and filled with tissue paper to protect the product during transit. These choices are made to ensure the product reaches our customer safely. In these methods we have actively avoided the inclusion of any plastic packaging materials. Everything from the sticky tape we use to the boxes themselves are responsibly sourced and environmentally friendly. The choice of tissue allows for a secondary use for this packing material, as well the entirety of the packaging can be utilised in the proper care storage of your purchase.
Our offices - based in Melbourne, our offices and spaces endeavour to consistently employ energy conscious behaviours. In addition, we embrace recycling practices including the re-purposing of fabric and other production waste.
Our distribution - we have streamlined our distribution methods to ensure the product gets to where it needs to be as efficiently as possible. This results in minimal excess emission produced during our distribution phase. To do this our distribution for all sales platforms has been combined to ensure the reduction of any environmental impact. This streamlining also allows for timely and uniform adjustments to other factors such as updates to environmentally conscious packaging methods.
