Sustainability
Every revolution has a leader. For the revolution in eco-friendly apparel, Eco Swim by Aqua Green is leading the charge for a better and more sustainable tomorrow.
In a world with overflowing landfills and polluted oceans, the time has come to take meaningful action that reduces the burden on our planet. As a 4th generation family company, we believe that doing our part is the responsibility of mothers and fathers and of daughters and sons. In essence, we believe that our family has a responsibility to your family to reduce our environmental impact.
As important as it is to reduce, reuse, and recycle, we also believe that those looking to reduce their carbon footprint in the sand should look and feel great while doing so. Because the state of the environment affects us all on our personal level, our swimsuit designs are inspired by the latest trends coming out of European fashion houses so that each one makes the wearer feel great.
We all share one planet. We don't get another shot. We want the world to be a better place for future generations, and so with every new sunrise, we take one step closer to reducing our carbon footprint in the sand.
Eco Swim by Aqua Green received a Good Housekeeping endorsement! Eco Swim suits were reviewed, tested and verified by the Good Housekeeping lab team. Their endorsement is just another reason why Eco Swim can be trusted. "It's one of the only swimwear collections on the market that's taking steps to lower its impact on the planet... if you're concerned about the planet and need a new suit, hit the stores and pick up an Eco Swim!"
Repreve is a brand of fabrics made from 100% recycled materials. Using innovative technology, the company combines post-consumer waste (plastic bottles) and industrial waste (nylon) to create high quality yarn. The company is one of the leaders in the "upcycle" movement to find significant use for waste materials and used-up products.
Some of Eco Swim products are made with Repreve fabric, limiting our carbon footprint and providing a meaningful use for otherwise useless materials. In addition, Repreve donates a portion of each company sale to Environmental causes, and allows customers to vote to determine where those proceeds will go. So if you buy from Eco Swim you'll be able to contribute to the environmental organization of your choice with one click of a button. Just one more reason to sport the Eco Swim look the next time you head for the water.
