# Sustainability

Fashion is one of the biggest contributors to climate change, with the equivalent of 3 out of every 5 garments of clothing produced ending in landfill or incinerators! At FLYP, we believe it is time for change. That’s why we’re on a mission to accelerate the fashion industry’s transition towards a truly sustainable model and are excited to be laying a blueprint for others to follow!

FLYP is challenging the status quo through our four pillars of sustainable disruption:

**Made to Order**

At FLYP, we want to disrupt the negative cycle of excess clothing production leading to waste. That is why we are striving for a ‘zero waste’ approach to creating high quality clothing. We use advanced techniques to ensure manufacturing only begins when you press purchase. Because of this, we increase your ability to develop unique designs and significantly reduce the likelihood of clothing ending up in landfill or incineration.

**Direct Shipping**

We ship directly to our customers from our manufacturing sites. This helps reduce carbon dioxide emissions by lowering the distance each order travels and reduces shipping time!

**Sustainable Materials**

FLYP is committed to prioritising sustainable materials. That is why we already offer a range of products made with recycled and certified sustainable materials.

**Digital Product Development Using 3D Design**

At FLYP, we have removed the need to ship samples back and forth through our 3D modelling design process. This allows you to create with greater efficiency and less environmental impact.
