Sustainable materials

Below is a glossary of more sustainable materials you may see on Etsy listings.

Hemp: The item is made from 100% hemp fiber, with the possible exception of thread or fasteners. Hemp requires less water to grow than common alternatives like cotton. It’s naturally pest resistant, which reduces the need for pesticides. Hemp growth has been shown to improve aspects of soil health.

Linen: The item is made from 100% linen fiber from the flax plant, with the possible exception of thread or fasteners. Flax is a fast-growing plant that requires less water than common alternatives like cotton. It is typically also durable and biodegradable.

Reusable: Items designed to be reusable aren’t necessarily made from more sustainable materials, but they can contribute to a lower-impact lifestyle if used repeatedly in place of a disposable alternative. You’ll only see “reusable” on items that are otherwise commonly created to be disposable.

Upcycled : This is an item that has been transformed from its original form into something new or of higher value. Choosing an upcycled item helps materials stay in use longer before being discarded.
