Sustainable Ethos
OUR VALUES
Heirloom Fibrecraft is passionate about the natural world which is evident in our design style and sustainable materials. We select makers who respect nature and share our values for protecting biodiversity, actively omit plastics and use recyclable or biodegradable packaging, reduce carbon emissions and use non toxic, water efficient and certified organic or green resources.
Heirloom donates a percentage of profits to nature conservancy groups, particularly those who aim to protect koala habitats, native forests and endangered native species. We like to lobby against development and mining that may harm our remaining habitats. Mass scale animal farming (and any cruelty to animals) and sea destruction is abhorrent and influences us in our business and lifestyle choices. Of the many organisations who respectfully work hard to conserve, we financially donate to :
AUSTRALIAN CONSERVATION FOUNDATION
AUSTRALIAN WILDLIFE CONSERVANCY
