As part of our mission to be one of the most sustainable eco-friendly fabrics shops available Riverside Fabrics is proud to introduce POLLAST!C™ as our new packaging source.
POLLASTIC™ is the world’s first packaging product made from 100% ocean bound plastic. POLLASTIC™ is collected from shorelines in countries with minimal waste management infrastructure.
POLLASTIC™ collaborates with marginalized communities in Southeast Asia, offering them fair compensation for collecting ocean-bound plastics from their beaches and waterways.
This method for obtaining plastic effectively prevents its entry into the ocean and limits its ability to trap carbon. Each of our POLLASTIC™ packaging products uses about 75% less CO2 compared to virgin plastic products, and significantly less than any other paper or recycled packaging product currently available.
At Riverside Fabrics, we prioritize minimizing our impact on the environment and regularly implement solutions to reduce our carbon footprint.
