Sustainability Statement
Our Commitment to Responsible Design and Environmental Progress
At SHÉR, we recognise that sustainability is not a single claim or destination, but an ongoing responsibility. As a brand focused on durability, design integrity, and long-term wear, we are committed to taking a considered and transparent approach to environmental responsibility.
This statement outlines how we currently approach sustainability, where we are improving, and where we acknowledge limitations.
A Responsible Approach to Materials and Design
We believe that longevity is a fundamental element of sustainability.
SHÉR products are designed for durability and repeated wear, with the intention of reducing unnecessary replacement and short-term consumption. Rather than treating hosiery as disposable, we position our products as long-lasting wardrobe pieces that encourage mindful ownership and extended use.
Our design philosophy prioritises:
-
Product durability and long-term wear
-
Reduced replacement frequency
-
Responsible material selection within current technical constraints
Packaging Choices and Practical Trade-offs
We aim to minimise environmental impact where practical, while being transparent about current limitations.
What we do:
-
Our primary product packaging uses biodegradable kraft paper, selected for its recyclability and reduced environmental impact.
-
We actively seek to minimise excessive packaging wherever possible.
What we are still improving:
-
Some complimentary items, such as wash care bags, are made from synthetic materials to ensure functional performance and product protection.
-
Certain gift packaging elements use transparent plastic, primarily for hygiene, durability, and logistical reasons.
We acknowledge that these components are not fully sustainable solutions, and we are continuously reviewing alternative materials and packaging formats as they become viable without compromising product quality or customer experience.
Transparency and Continuous Improvement
We do not claim to be fully sustainable, carbon neutral, or impact-free. Instead, we are committed to:
-
Honest communication about our practices
-
Continuous review of materials, packaging, and processes
-
Incremental improvements guided by practicality, responsibility, and transparency
As standards, technologies, and supply-chain solutions evolve, so will our approach.
Our Ongoing Commitment
Sustainability at SHÉR is about making better choices where possible, acknowledging limitations where they exist, and taking responsibility for progress rather than perfection.
We believe transparency builds trust, and we remain committed to improving our environmental footprint while delivering products designed to last.
