Manchester merchandise that doesn't cost the earth
Ethical policy
We have taken some responsibility for how our garments are made and invested in sustainable products. Becasue we’re conscious of how a high volume of products posted around the world may permanently leave a mark on the planet.
Sustainability
Every year 100 billion new items of clothing are produced while a truck full of clothing and other non-recyclable waste is burned, or buried in a landfill every second. That’s why we’ve invested in ethically sourced organic and vegan products and we’re always looking to improve our sustainable options.
Organic cotton, as opposed to non-organic cotton, is environmentally friendly, uses less water to produce and is free from pesticides.
A pure organic material makes remanufacturing possible, and means products that are softer to the skin, and not harmful to the environment.
Choose organic cotton for people and the planet. Shop sustainable Manchester merchandise with I Love MCR.
Printing Method
Our factory use water based eco-friendly inks that are vegan friendly and not tested on animals. We’re printing designs onto textile that last the lifetime of the garment as opposed to running or fading in the wash.
Packaging
We’ve been shipping with plastic-free packaging since 2019, sending off 99% of our orders all wrapped up an in eco-friendly fashion.
Our paper postal mailing bags are manufactured from responsible, sustainable sources to comply with FSC certification. These bags are 100% recyclable and home-compostable – the paper is both compostable and degradable, and paper mailers can be easily recycled. They’re weather-proof, too. Which is basically the law in Manchester.
We’re always looking at ways to reduce our carbon footprint and environmental impact, and we’re always open to new ideas so feel free to get in touch.
