Sustainability

Our Mission

We believe everyone deserves a safe night's sleep. And we promise to always prioritise people and the planet over profit. We hold ourselves accountable for living up to this promise, as a new brand we are not perfect but are constantly looking for means to improve. The key ways in which we currently uphold this promise are:

Metro 2

We donate £5 from every piece sold to our charity partner Oasis Domestic Abuse Service, to help support those in need of a safe night's sleep.

Metro 2

We work with a certified Fair Trade manufacturer to ensure that every single person involved in rho production is paid a fair wage and works in a safe environment, at the very least

Metro 2

We use only 100% GOTS certified organic cotton, the leading organic textile standard

Metro 2

We use only AZO-free dyes and work with a manufacturer who reduces, recycles and treats all water used for production

Metro 2

Each order undergoes a plastic-free journey to our customers, we opt for recycled, biodegradable and/or recyclable natural materials for our packaging instead

rho is not a sustainable brand.

We are sustainability-orientated, but the creation of all new products has negative impacts on the environment. That's why we are driven by our determination to be a business for good, and for our positive impacts to out-weigh our negative ones.

We dream of helping as many people as possible through our business. rho was born from a love of slow mornings and artisan craft, combined with great respect for our planet, it's people and it's resources, and a determination to make a positive difference in the world.

Every business decision we make is based on our values of compassion, transparency and accountability for our impacts and we are proud to join the growing movement of businesses operating ethically and responsibly.
