SUSTAINABILITY


How is Urbody prioritizing sustainability?


We do our best to ensure the fabrics, factories, and people involved in the production of Urbody products use ethical practices and do their part to minimize waste. The fashion industry as a whole and our small team at Urbody continually tries to improve our sustainability practices in many ways. We are committed and working diligently to become more sustainable as we grow. 


Why is Urbody not manufactured in the USA?


In creating Urbody, we searched for ethical manufacturers with a technical design team who had extensive experience with performance fabrics, using the most advanced machinery for production. Unfortunately, we found a scarcity of US factories that operated with our ethical standards and had experience with compression fabrics and performance wear. Though they are overseas, our manufacturing partners have a shared passion for serving members of the trans, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming communities that have been previously overlooked by the fashion industry. After much research and testing, we selected high-quality compression fabrics sourced from Europe and Asia that matched our standards. The Urbody Collection is manufactured in factories located in South Korea. All factories are WRAP and SEDEX certified, employing people with living wages.


WRAP Compliance: WRAP is an independent, objective, non-profit team of global social compliance experts dedicated to promoting safe, lawful, humane, and ethical manufacturing around the world through certification and education.


Sedex Compliance: Sedex provides a convenient online platform with tools and services that help businesses maintain sustainability, source ethically, and protect workers.


Is your packaging sustainable?


Urbody packaging is 100% recyclable and compostable. We are always tweaking our packaging to make sure it is as sustainable as possible.
