Sustainable Branding Starts with Real Choices: What Our Suppliers Are Doing Right Now
Sustainability can feel overwhelming when spoken about in global terms — climate targets, international standards, industry-wide reform. But in the world of branded uniforms and promotional products, sustainability often begins in smaller, more practical steps. And many of our trusted suppliers are already doing more than most people realise.
This shift is happening quietly, but it’s meaningful. And it’s something we’re proud to support here on the Northern Beaches.
Small Changes with Real Impact
One of the most encouraging parts of our industry right now is seeing suppliers take action at the packaging and production level — the part customers don’t always see, but that has a huge environmental impact.
For example:
AS Colour provides a breakdown of how many recycled plastic bottles are used to create their Recycled Hoodies and Tees. When you choose one of these garments, you’re choosing clothing that gives waste materials a second life — and you can see the impact right there, on the label.
Biz Collection has transitioned to recyclable packaging sleeves for many of their garments, reducing single-use plastics that previously went straight to landfill.
They have also removed plastic tape on many box shipments, moving to alternatives that reduce waste at scale.
It’s not flashy — but it’s real, measurable progress.
These are the steps that matter: practical sustainability integrated into everyday production.
What This Means for Local Businesses, Schools, and Clubs
You don’t need to place a massive order or overhaul your uniform program to make a difference.
Even small decisions create a ripple effect:
Choosing a recycled-fibre hoodie instead of a standard fleece
Selecting polos from suppliers who publish their supply chain transparency
Supporting brands committed to renewable energy and ethical labor standards
It’s the accumulation of thoughtful decisions — not perfection — that shifts an industry.
Local Choices Strengthen Community
By working with a Northern Beaches-based business for your branding and decoration, you’re also:
Supporting local service and craftsmanship
Reducing transport and shipping emissions
Keeping funds circulating in the community
Strengthening long-term local business relationships
Sustainability is environmental, yes — but it’s also social.
And here, we look after each other.
The Future of Our Industry is Already Changing
The trend toward better materials, ethical supply, and thoughtful packaging is no longer niche — it’s growing. More suppliers are investing in recycled textiles, energy-efficient dye processes, and globally recognized ethical certifications.
And as customers, clubs, workplaces, and schools, we get to encourage that momentum every time we choose products that reflect our values.
It doesn’t have to be perfect.
It just has to be intentional.
We’re here to guide you through those choices — simply, practically, and with honesty.
