Sustainability
As a part of the fashion industry we are very aware of the detrimental effects of fast fashion on our planet. Hence we very consciously made a choice to be a 'slow fashion' brand.
Slow fashion is the widespread reaction to fast fashion the argument for hitting the brakes on excessive production, overcomplicated supply chains, and mindless consumption. We advocate for manufacturing that respects people, the environment and animals.
We are aware that its a journey to get to 100% sustainability but we are on track to someday achieving just that. Ways in which we stay true to ethic are:
A choice that came very naturally to us is to continue to only use natural fibres in our garments. These materials are biodegradeable and hence healthier for the ecosystem. We have pledged never to use polyesters and other non bio-degradable materials which affect the environment as a whole on multiple levels.
We only produce 2-3 collections every year and that too in small batches. We completely disregard over-production which causes over-utilisation of environmental resources.
Another proactive decision we made early on was deciding to have all our raw material procurement, dyers, artisans etc in a 5km vicinity from our production house. This helps in avoiding wastage of resources in mere collection of materials in the first stage of the production.

We also have installed Solar Plants and hence our entire premises is generating electricity via renewable energy. We are trying to reduce our carbon footprint as much as we can and hence these factors are intrinsic to the ethos followed by Kapraãha.
