Sustainable clothing
Welcome to VIPwees, your ultimate destination for stylish and expressive graphic t-shirts . We specialise in creating premium-quality tees that allow you to showcase your love for TV, film, music, and sports. Whether you're a die-hard fan of classic movies, an avid music lover, or a passionate sports enthusiast, we have the perfect t-shirt.
Here at VIPwees, we want to make our customers a promise that sustainability will always be a core value of our brand. We believe this should come with complete transparency of the garments we use, the way they are sourced and how we make these into sustainable products.
It's all in the fabric.
From field to fashion, our garments are only made from 100% organic cotton and other recycled materials. This means our products are GMO-free and grown without the use of pesticides or fertilisers. This keeps soil healthy and helps protect farmers from any hazardous or toxic chemicals. Organic cotton is also grown in more rain-fed areas, which means farmers are more reliant on rainwater for their crops, which relieves pressure on the water supply in the local communities. Our recycled polyester is made entirely from used plastic bottles, making use from materials which are not biodegradable and may end up in our oceans.
It starts with the supply chain.
We are very selective about the suppliers we use and ensure we only source garments from suppliers with the relevant certifications such as GOTS, Peta Approved Vegan and The Global Recycled Standard. Each of these certifications demonstrate a mission in building healthier environmental practices, better working conditions for employees and the production of materials with respect for the planet. These certifications are monitored, regulated and approved by some of the world’s leading bodies. Click here to see our full list of featured certifications.
Making a fully sustainable product.
To make a fully sustainable product, the choice of garment is only one piece of the puzzle. For all our DTG printed products, we only use water-based Neo Pigment inks, which meet the highest sustainability standard. For our embroidered designs we only use 100% natural Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified cotton and polyester.
From us to you. How sustainable is our packaging?
From start to finish, we leave no stone unturned in making sure our products have little impact on the environment.
Once your order has been hand-finished and quality checked, we package this in biodegradable tissue paper and then shipped inside one our branded cardboard boxes or bags, both of which have been printed using only water-based inks and are widely recyclable.
Our daily operations. How we make a difference at VIPwees HQ
All products available on our webstore are made to order, to ensure we have no excess stock once a product has reached its total print number or has been discontinued. Any products which do not meet our standard, or cannot be resold for any other reason, will be used here at the warehouse as test pieces for new product releases. Any products with slight imperfections will be sold in our clearance area at a non-returnable discounted price.
In a mission to reduce our own carbon footprint, we no longer use printed resources for any part of our order preparations. This includes invoices and return slips, which will not be included in any of our parcels.
We also ensure we maintain a safe and friendly working environment for all our in-house team members.
