Sustainability

What is Sustainability?

Sustainability can be defined as, “the avoidance of the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance.” In other words, using natural resources responsibly today, so they are available for future generations tomorrow. Sustainability has been widely adopted as a practice in accordance with three societal pillars: People, Profit, and the Planet.

At the core of this pillar is a dedication to people - respecting human rights, upholding labor laws, and combating corruption. Being socially sustainable means prohibiting discrimination based on race, gender, religion or status. It ensures fair wages and safe working conditions and fosters an ethical and transparent business environment. At Ayana Active, we have adopted this pillar in many ways. Our business is structured around creating products for every woman, regardless of size, race, or religion. We do not partner with any manufacturers without seeing the facility and its working conditions, ensuring that we are never supporting an environment that leaves people subject to unfair practices.

The economic aspect of sustainability revolves around quality production and resource/cost management. This means creating and distributing goods and services that elevate living standards where they are delivered. Sustainable profit growth is intrinsically tied to responsible resource management, ensuring a balance between economic prosperity and environmental responsibility. For Ayana Active, ensuring economic sustainability is rooted in our commitment to produce clothing with as little waste as possible. From fabric, to time, we are committed to saving resources and reducing waste. By producing our clothing in the United States, we help create fair trade jobs within our communities.

There cannot be sustainability without environmental impact. The planet pillar involves embracing renewable energy resources such as solar, wind, or hydroelectric power. Businesses are called to actively reduce water and energy consumption, creating room for renewable energy, clean technology, and overall resource efficiency. This commitment extends across Ayana Active’s entire production process. From the moment we begin constructing a pattern, we are striving to produce as little waste as possible. We have adopted more efficient practices that reduce transportation of goods to and from manufacturing, reducing our carbon footprint. Additionally, our future goal is moving towards a design process including 3D technology, that will increase efficiency and reduce fabric and paper waste even further.

In essence, we at Ayana Active view sustainability as an ongoing journey. We're implementing a flexible system that evolves with time, driven by a commitment to learning, growing, and staying at the forefront of developments in the textile and apparel manufacturing industries. Our aim is not just to meet but to exceed sustainability standards, contributing to a healthier planet, society, and economic ecosystem.

Ayana Active's Eco-Friendly Commitments

At Ayana Active, our commitment to eco-friendliness revolves around these core initiatives:

Rooted in sustainability, inspired by culture and belief, and driven by modern fashion trends, we aim to not only fit you perfectly but also fit seamlessly into your conscious lifestyle.

Our sportswear sets are made from 20% Creora High Clo Spandex and 80% recycled Mipan Regen Nylon. MIPAN regen is the world’s first recycled nylon filament yarn intended for textile use. It’s produced from 100% recycled polyester, entirely coming from post-consumer materials that contain varying degrees of nylon.

Our fabrics have the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certifications, which is one of the world's best known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. It stands for customer confidence and high product safety.

Ayana Active proudly manufactures activewear in the USA, minimizing carbon emissions associated with overseas travel. Fair treatment for employees is assured by working with US factories that uphold ethical production standards. Personal visits to factories instill confidence in working conditions and processes, solidifying our commitment to sustainable and socially responsible production.

Our commitment to producing in the USA has been a long-standing goal, underscored by our founder’s exposure to the pride of Italian brands in producing on their own land during her studies in Italy. Long term, we plan to become an export company as the brand grows.

By gauging customer interest before production, waste is minimized, and it becomes more feasible to tailor output to actual demand. This not only prevents overproduction but also introduces an element of scarcity, heightening the desirability of the products.

Embracing innovation, Ayana Actives future goal is to use advanced 3D design technology to transform the design process sustainably. This approach significantly reduces waste in the prototyping stage, eliminating the need for excessive materials like specialty pattern paper and fabric. The technology facilitates efficient and precise design creation, reducing both time and environmental impact.
