Hockerty Tailor Magazine

Sustainable Packaging for your clothes

Why are we changing our packaging (despite it does not look that beautiful) This year Hockerty-Sumissura has the clear purpose to become an environtmentally-friendly company. We were already considering ourselves an ethical brand responsible with our employees and providers. Now we want to go a step further, so we are looking for ways to optimize the amount of waste generated by our packaging. Packaging is known as a key part in any marketing strategy. The more beautiful you pack something, the better impact your brand has on the customer. Okay, but let's think about it again: packaging is ephemeral. In our case, packaging last just 2-3 days, since we pack your made to measure garments till you receive them at your place. So we are using paper, cardboard and plastic whose mission will last a bunch of hours. Decisions are not easy to take. You need plastics because they protect against external moisture, on the other hand, cardboard is easier to recycle than plastic.

They don’t have just a job; they have careers. Our commitment to sweatshop-free labor practices is a long-term investment and a demonstration that an ethical and sustainable business is viable.
