Our Promise to the Planet
We’re all about keeping it real when it comes to our environmental impact. No greenwashing here—just the bare truth about what we’re doing to keep our footprint as light as a sandy beach walk. Trust that we work everyday to minimize our impact on this planet we call home.
Fabrics
Our first collection is made from 100% recycled yarns crafted from plastic bottles and waste pulled from the Mediterranean Ocean, which is produced using recycled water in a facility powered by renewable energy. Our men’s and boy’s swim trunks, girl’s swimwear and the cover ups are made of eco-friendly and recycled materials.
Packaging
Every package you get from us is made in the USA from 100% pre-consumer recycled content, and it’s fully recyclable, ready for its next adventure. Please make sure to follow the proper recycling instructions.
Manufacturing
Our production partners may be scattered around the globe, but we keep it close to home whenever we can. We thoroughly vet them to ensure they meet our strict standards, ensuring positive working conditions, fair pay, and ethical practices. In our Colombian facility, workers earn above the legal minimum wage, work regular hours, and all fabric scraps get a second life in products like mops and rags. Because nothing should go to waste!
Why Mineral Sunscreen?
Reef-Safe Ingredients
Mineral sunscreens use active ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which are generally considered safe for marine life. These ingredients do not contribute to coral bleaching like oxybenzone and octinoxate, which are found in most chemical sunscreens.
Non-Toxic to Marine Life
Chemicals in many sunscreens can be toxic to fish, algae, and marine mammals, affecting their health, reproduction, and ecosystems. Mineral sunscreens, however, have a lower risk of leaching toxins into the water, making them a safer choice for ocean environments.
Less Bioaccumulation
Chemical ingredients in sunscreens can accumulate in the bodies of marine animals and persist in water sources. Mineral ingredients tend to be more stable and are less likely to build up in marine organisms.
