One of our favourite brands here at Sparkle & Spin is the super eco-conscious Katvig.
Born in 2003 Katvig is the baby of Katrine Colette and Vigga Svensson (Kat-vig) who wanted to create a fashion brand that allowed children to be children whilst being committed environmental issues. With the simple philosophy that our generation must pass on the nature in the same state it was given to us, without compromising fashion. Katvig considers the environmental impact and consequence of every new piece of clothing they design.
Pioneers in the ethical production of kids clothing, Katvig are continuously looking at improving their eco credentials to ensure that all products get from factory to store with the smallest carbon footprint possible. This applies to everything from using innovative recycled and organic fabrics to biodegradable packaging. We love the fact that their stock arrives in recycled boxes and have been found playing guess who had that box before every time a new delivery arrives!!
Following the amazing success of Katvig's outwear produced from recycled plastic bottles (can you imagine a fleece made from 15 plastic bottles!!), recycled cotton and polyester have become key materials in the collection, meaning less waste and less impact on the environment and beautifully soft clothes that every little one will want to wear.
Katvig has also worked hard to meet the tough Oeko-Tex Standard 100 proving that their clothes have been produced without any harmful chemicals meaning no need for pre washing. Third party verified by a number of organic standards you can be sure that Katvig does exactly what it says on the tin!!
Despite all their eco credentials Katvig produces on trend unique clothing in a kaleidoscope of colours in simple practical designs that let the prints do the talking. From their bright baby bodies, to their funky dresses and sweat wear you can be sure that Katvig always produces clothes that the we love without damaging our planet.
