Sustainability at RYMARO
Sustainability is important to RYMARO. We’re getting greener every step of the way,
while still providing you with the quality products you deserve.
As we work with on-demand suppliers, we only produce items for which we get an order, avoiding textile waste from overproduction. Our printing partner’s high-quality printing tech
creates almost no wastewaters and uses less energy than standard industry printers.
Information about Direct to Garment (DTG) Printing
Our tees, pullovers and hoodies are all printed with the direct-to-garment (DTG) technique, which is a printing method where ink is first sprayed directly onto the garment, and then it soaks into the fabric. It’s like printing on paper, but on clothing. We use Kornit printers that generate almost zero wastewater and use less energy than standard industry printers, which lowers our carbon footprint.
The inks we use for printing are Oeko-Tex™ certified, vegan, water-based, and free of harmful
chemicals. RYMARO takes sustainability seriously, that’s why we take care to properly
dispose of any left-over ink according to the ink supplier guidelines.
Information about embroidery
At RYMARO, we embroider our products with Oeko-Tex™ certified threads, meaning
they’re safe for both adult and children's clothing. Compared to printing, embroidery is generally
more durable and produces less environmental waste.
Statement about production times
Each product you see in our catalog is made-on-demand, which means once you place the order,
we start working to get it to you. It takes time for us to create and send out the product, but
making each order on-demand allows us to avoid overproduction. This way we get to take care
of you and the planet we all share.
Product Packaging
At RYMARO, all apparel products are packed in post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic
mailers. The amount of PCR in the packaging will differ depending on where your order gets
printed, but it’s at least 50% for the outside (white or grey) poly mailer bags and at least 30% for
the inside (clear) bags used in multi-item shipments.
PCR packaging is made from everyday items, like used plastic bags and bottles. This material
protects your order just as well as regular plastic bags, however, choosing PCR over first-use
plastics reduces the environmental impact plastic has on our planet
