Sustainability - People & Planet

SUSTAINABILITY 

Here at George Street Linen, we have a strong focus on making conscious decisions about the ways we design, produce and deliver premium linen that also helps our community and planet. 

OUR VISION

We hope to continually inspire our community to think differently about bedlinen. We aim to support action, initiate change and continually innovate new ways to become more sustainable and eco friendly.

NATURAL FIBRES

We attend many markets all over the world every year that showcase some of the best natural fibres in the world. We're constantly on the search for the best product to sleep on and bring peace of mind knowing it didn't come at too much of a cost to the environment. 
Not only are natural fibres good for you in terms of breathability, comfort and style, the manufacturing processes involved is better for the environment all round. Low emissions and absolutely no toxic chemicals. 

 

OUR FAVOURITE FIBRES 

Our cotton plants are picked each season and continue to grow.

Our linen plants are sourced from Belgium, uprooted each season, meaning the whole plant is used which leaves absolutely no waste. Our flax Linen farm has actually been noted to have a positive impact on eco-system diversity by retaining CO2.

We love Bamboo blends because of its amazing versatility. Bamboo can grow up to four feet in a day, absorbs five times more carbon dioxide than most other trees, and produces around 35% more oxygen. It regenerates itself quickly after harvesting and requires little water and no pesticides to grow well.


 

FARM OVER FACTORY METHOD

We opt for natural fibres over manufactured. Our product is sourced straight from the farm. Which has a much lower impact on the environment in comparison to that of synthetic fibres which emit tonnes of toxic fumes into the air.

 

 

BIODEGRADABLE

Another great reason to use natural fibres is that should the time come, our sheets are bio-degradable. Not to say our products break down. We make sure to complete multiple tests and use only long staple fibres to assure your bedding will last and get better after each wash. 


 

NO CHEMICAL PROCESSING

When using natural fibres, they require gentle treatment. So there's not harsh chemicals or harsh dyes when creating our bedding. We also love to preserve all of those natural features as it does provide a more comfortable and effortlessly stylish look.

Oeko-Tex certified 

 

ZERO WASTE PACKAGING

Our bed sheets arrive to you wrapped beautifully in tissue and in our signature cardboard box. Everything we send them with can go straight into your recycling bin, all ready to make a new start as something new. Our duffle bags are recyclable too! or a great keepsake to store your linen. 

 

BUY LESS, BUY BETTER

Our custom colours and patterns are designed to mix and match so that they'll always make a statement in your bedroom. 

We do recommend replacing your cotton every 5-10 years, and if looked after with care, your 100% linen sheets will last a lifetime.
 

ONLY THE BEST ACCESSORIES 

We use multiple styles of YKK zippers on our duvet covers and pillows. These zippers have been tested and marked to be the best in the world to stand the test of time.
