More About Back Market’s Sustainable Apparel
Bringing a Brand to Life
Back Market, a leader in the refurbished tech market, stands out for its commitment to sustainability and innovation. They’ve revolutionized tech accessibility by offering professionally restored devices, significantly reducing e-waste and environmental impact.
According to their research, a refurbished smartphone uses 91.3% less raw materials, 86.4% less water, generates 89% less e-waste, and puts 91.6% less carbon emissions into our atmosphere compared to brand new. It’s such a great model for keeping e-waste out of the landfill.
As a fellow B Corporation, they approached Fairware to develop an employee apparel gift that was bold and unique. The design of the custom crew neck sweatshirts mirrors Back Market’s focus on sustainability. The aesthetic and messaging of these garments reflect the company’s ethos and dedication to eco-friendly practices.
Back Market has pioneered the refurbished technology sector with a mission to offer high-quality, reliable tech that’s better than new. Their approach significantly lessens the environmental toll of tech consumption.
Sustainable Custom Apparel
We sourced Threadfast sweatshirts because their commitment to sustainability aligns well with that of Back Market. Threadfast focuses on using more sustainable materials. They’ve successfully transitioned to sourcing recycled polyester across all their collections. They’re also a proud member of Better Cotton, which means that they’re committed to sourcing cotton in a way that’s more sustainable for farmers and the environment. The choice of eco-friendly materials for the sweatshirts reflected the synergy between aesthetic appeal and environmental stewardship.
Old School Meets New – Chenille Patches
While a little, ahem, bold, the F*#K NEW chenille patch was the perfect rallying cry for a brand deeply committed to reuse and circularity. The distinctive 12″ x 2.5″ chenille felt border patch, reminiscent of classic team jackets, added a unique flair to the sweatshirts.
Chenille patches are an old-school classic, and they’re coming back in style. Their amazing texture makes chenille patches fluffy, funky, and fun, making them perfect for eye-catching designs. With fashion trends going back to 80s and 90s styles, when Chenille was in its heyday, these patches are cool again.
