SUSTAINABILITY
Sourcing Sustainable-
Veda's is committed to a high degree of sustainability in its supply chain and production. We are actively working on sourcing 100 percent of our cotton from sustainable rain-fed cotton varieties and increasing the use of handloom and Khadi hand spun and handwoven fabrics,which have an extremely low carbon footprint, in our collections.
The Veda Way-
Veda's approach demonstrates that beauty and luxury do not have to come at a social and environmental cost. We prioritise design, quality and longevity, recognising the urgent need to transition to a circular economy. Veda's ethos drives us to bring stunning craftsmanship to the world, whilst peacefully co-existing with our natural surroundings.
Sustainability is thus at the heart of everything we do at Veda. In an age of fast and wasteful fashion, Veda strives to create something different: exquisitely handcrafted artisanal clothing that is made to last a lifetime. Sustainability and environmental impact are considered at every stage of our products’ journey:from design, to sourcing, to production, to end-of-life.
Eco-Friendly Fabrics That Return To The Earth-
Veda is determined to only use natural fabrics that are 100% biodegradable. Our sustainable fabrics include silk, cotton, linen and cashmere, all of which involve minimal waste during production and are readily biodegradable. By not using synthetic fibres such as polyester, nylon and acrylic, which are made from petroleum, Veda significantly limits its contribution to plastic pollution and climate change. In addition, the dyes we use for our clothing are azo-free and free of toxic chemicals and carcinogenic substances.
Our Commitment to Environmental Sustainability-
Biodegradability is a very important factor in environmental sustainability, and VEDA'S commitment to using natural fabrics like cotton,Silk and linen aligns with this crucial ethos. When natural materials biodegrade, they break down into organic compounds ultimately returning to and becoming part of the soil.
Unlike synthetic materials that often release harmful chemicals during decomposition, natural fibres break down without releasing harmful substances into the earth. By choosing biodegradable fabrics, Veda not only promotes a healthier planet but also encourages a shift towards sustainable practices that respect the Earth’s natural cycles. In the end, Veda garments will be absorbed into the earth without leaving a trace.
We prefer sustainable fashion based not only on what we love to wear ourselves, but based on the ideals, upbringing, and dreams of our traditions and culture. Each piece we create is unique, long-lasting, and comfortable; created with the best quality fabrics and natural dyes, our garments are hand-made by our small team in India.
So accepting the above we have chosen to reduce our markup, to make it lower than industry standards, to enable and support our artisans, and allow more of you to experience and support them also.
We operate how we want to live; with respect and love for the world and its people. If you want to be part of creating a better world, sustainable fashion is for you! With being more focused on sustainability and being part of this movement you can actually make a difference in this world. And as funny as that sounds, we can all make a difference, no matter how big or how small.
