Tentree

The challenge

Tentree is really up to a humongous self-imposed challenge – to become the world´s most environmentally-friendly brand, revitalize nature and inspire all to play a helpful role in this process. Indeed, every article you buy is a great contributor to reach this rather bold goal. Where do you want to plant your trees and what kind? Well, the choice is all yours. You´ll receive a TreeCode, with the help of which you can choose between several countries: Madagascar, Haiti, Senegal, Nepal, Indonesia, Canada, the US or Cambodia.

Sustainability and our resources

Tentree is synonymous with special clothing, due to the use of sustainable fabrics and elaborate features. Sustainability is indeed all over the place here. Everything Tentree does is helpful to our planet´s health, such as the choice of materials. Organic cotton, recycled polyester, cork or coconut are used in t-shirts, shorts, pants, dresses, caps and many more – you are guaranteed to find your new favorite piece right here.

Tentree uses several environmentally preserving materials, such as Tencel™ Lyocell, which stems from quickly growing eucalyptus trees and neither requires pesticides nor insecticides. Also, they need less space than it takes to grow cotton. Tentree also uses recycled polyester, which is made of recycled bottles and/or PET-wastes. Modal, a cellulose made of beechwood, is also frequently used by Tentree for their everyday clothing. A breathable and incredibly soft tissue, which is just perfect for your average spare time activities.

Eco-linen and hemp are additional materials – they are breathable and lightweight and ensure that you stay cool, even if everything around you gets hot. On top of that, hemp is antimicrobial and UV-resistant. Some pretty neat accessories: the buttons are made of coconut shells instead of plastic and there are cork lasts instead of leather ones, which you can find on the bags and hoodies respectively.

Due to its commitment to organic cotton, Tentree prevents the use of tons of chemicals and thus protects our environment once more. So, if you´re up to doing something really good, go out and grab a Tentree outfit!
