SUSTAINABILITY

Our Sustainability Commitments at Tortue UK

At Tortue UK, we believe fashion empowers women, and we’re dedicated to bringing you beautiful, high-quality garments with a focus on sustainability. Here’s how we uphold our responsible fashion commitments alongside our supplier Maison Captain in France.

Quality Clothing That Lasts

Our designs are timeless and built to last. Each garment undergoes thorough quality testing to ensure durability, allowing our customers to enjoy pieces from past collections for years.

Eco-Designed Materials

More than one-third of our collection is made from eco-responsible materials like organic cotton and recycled polyester. We avoid harmful materials and ensure compliance with strict REACH standards.

Lasting Relationships with Suppliers

Designed in Aix-en-Provence, our garments are produced in workshops that meet our ethical standards. We maintain long-term partnerships, with 85% of our production in 2023 coming from suppliers we've worked with for over a decade.

Reducing Packaging Waste

We prioritise sustainable packaging, using cardboard from responsibly managed forests and recycled polybags.

Utilising Every Piece of Fabric

To minimise waste, we create a seasonal re-use collection from surplus fabric, giving new life to unused materials.

Limited-Quantity Production

We combat overproduction by manufacturing in limited quantities, aligning closely with sales to reduce excess inventory.

At Tortue UK, we are committed to sustainable fashion that brings joy to women while protecting the environment. You can explore more details of our supplier's manufacturing practices at www.maisoncaptain.com.
