We’re working closely with our partners to challenge them to think about how we can become more sustainable in every part of our business.

People across our business want to contribute more than just profit, and there is a genuine excitement for the journey we’re on. We’ve set up a dedicated innovation team at Hemp Gallery Australia that’s examining innovation across all areas of our business, including how we can make all of our products more sustainable.

We are dedicated to educating our employees across our business on our sustainability programs.

We will ensure our employees are equipped to educate consumers on the recycling of products.

We will educate consumers at the markets and in our showroom explaining how our packaging can be recycled.

We are leveraging third party tools that we have invested in to measure brand sentiment and customer loyalty in relation to our sustainability. 

We measure our NPS quarterly and have a metric in place to track the impact of our sustainability efforts in relation to the customer.

Our fabrics are an experience in sustainable luxury.

We source hemp because it is a renewable fibre. We also source cotton, wool and tencel, because they’re better for the environment and better for our customers.

Although we love our hemp fabrics, we do have cotton blends. We’re committed to ensuring as many of our organic cotton products as possible carry the Global Organic Textile Standards (GOTS) certification, the leading certification worldwide.

Our hemp is grown sustainably in Qingdao, Northern China with little to no chemicals and pesticides. There are no irritants for asthma or allergy sufferers.

Hemp fabric can be used for paper making or can be allowed to degrade naturally, as it leaves no toxic residue.

We are continually making our packaging more sustainable and our vision is that, ultimately, all of Hemp Gallery Australia’s products will be free of all unnecessary packaging.

We’re reducing unnecessary packaging from factory to store and encouraging customers to return packaging for recycling.

All of our bed linen comes without cardboard keeping the bed linen stiff.

For customer deliveries, we reuse all cardboard cartons and boxes, as well as bubble wrap that we have received ourselves, for our customer orders.

Hemp Gallery is a trailblazer in sustainability, showcasing their commitment to carbon neutrality through various eco-conscious practices. Not only do they offset their carbon emissions, but they also ensure minimal waste by reusing boxes and bubble wrap during shipping. Their dedication to reducing environmental impact spans across their entire supply chain, as they continue to set a standard for responsible business practices in the industry. By choosing Hemp Gallery Australia, customers actively contribute to a greener future and support a business that prioritises both eco-friendly production and shipping methods.

Our efforts towards becoming more circular can be broken into two parts – through end of life and recycling or repurposing to prevent landfill. By designing with end-of-life in mind, more of our products can be recycled or reused, minimising the potential waste going directly to landfill.

We are considering end-of-life for our products more and more across the business. As part of this, we have implemented a number of steps, including introducing a recycling program at our market stalls and showroom in 2012. Since the launch of this program over 1000 kg pre-loved bed linen, towels, skincare containers and 369 hemp seed bottles and packaging have been donated by customers.

We are actively looking for new opportunities for yarns and fabrics that might have otherwise been considered waste. This ensures the value of the fibres is kept in the system and is not lost to landfill.

Since we introduced our bed linen range in 2005 we’ve been using off-cuts to produce our unique tea towels, produce bags, nut bags and beeswax wraps. And our best-selling printed Boat People tea towel is made from leftover bed linen off cuts that could otherwise be sent to landfill.
