Transparency

At Au Airira, we strive to balance the joy of creating beautiful artefacts and being responsible to the planet and its people. We are committed to reducing negative impact and supporting conscious efforts.

ETHICAL TRADE PRACTICES

We partner with factories that uphold ethical trade practices (i.e no worker exploitation throughout our production process) and do not condone child/forced labour. Workers employed are paid fairly and on time, and are working in a safe and healthy environment (e.g. bright and clean).

MATERIALS

We work with suppliers that hold certifications from reputable organisations such as GOTS, OEKO-TEX 100, and GR, ensuring that the materials are free from harmful chemicals and safe for human wear. 

LIMITED PRODUCTION

As a small business, we have the privilege of producing items in limited quantities. This reduces waste and environmental footprint. Naturally, this ensures that each item is thoughtfully and consciously designed, for unrivalled joy when wearing them.

PACKAGING

Each item is thoughtfully packed into a beautiful recyclable and biodegradable box that supports the planet while giving you a shopping experience you love. To promote reusability, we encourage customers to keep the packaging to exchange for credits. Find more information under 'Return-for-Credit'. 

IMPROVEMENTS

We actively seek ways to improve our business practices to meet your needs. In time to come, we hope to offer a wider range of sizes and further reduce the environmental impact of our practices (e.g. using compostable polymailers). As we continue to learn, grow, and refine our practices, we promise a dedication to making choices that honour our planet and its people.
