Sustainability and GRS

In recent years here at Premier Voile we have been making more of an effort to be more sustainable.

This includes using less single use plastic and more recycled and recyclable materials where we can. We have switched to using more paper and cardboard for our shipping requirements where possible, installed more efficient heating/cooling systems and always try to minimise wastage and consolidate shipping from our suppliers. 

As part of this we have also developed several ranges of sheers that make use of Recycled yarns that have been added to our collections; Remmy, Clara, Isola and Fenchi.

We are also proud to say that Premier Voile is certified to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS).

The GRS is an international, voluntary, full product standard that certifies and tracks recycled polyester from the source to the final product.

Products certified to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) contain recycled material that has been verified at each stage of the supply chain. In addition, facilities from the source to final supplier have met social, environmental, and chemical requirements.
