NOT ONLY DO WE DEAL, WE GROW!

wijld - we plant trees

 

Whoever wants to reap must also sow! That's why we only use wood from certified sustainable cultivation for our clothing made from wood. That means for every tree that is processed into our wood garments , a new one is planted. And we're going one better!

 

A TREE FOR EVERY ORDER AT WIJLD.COM

For every order on wijld.com we plant yet another tree! All our, and your, "donated" trees are planted by our reforestation partner on a massive 14,000 ha plot in Mexico. Why Mexico? In Europe forests are growing, while in countries outside of the EU rather bad conditions unfortunately prevail. It is precisely these countries we would like to support and due to the natural conditions favouring rapid plant growth, which in turn leads to higher CO² binding, we decided on Mexico!

BINDING CO² WITH WOOD GARMENTS

In order to make optimum use of the planted trees and the CO² bound in them, they are felled after about 15 years. This may not sound very reasonable at first, but it makes perfect sense if you understand the background:

If the trees are not processed further within this timeframe, many would die due to a lack of light or fungal infestation. Rot would set in and the bound carbon would be released back into the air. The felled trees thus form a long-term CO² store and are perfectly suited to be used as a substitute for not so environmentally friendly materials such as cement used in house construction or production of environmentally friendly clothing. In order to ensure harmony with animals and their habitat, great care goes into choosing the wood we use.

 

PLANT TREES WITH WIJLD.COM AND PROTECT NATURE SUSTAINABLY

We want to live in harmony with nature and support it in every respect. It is therefore our duty to draw attention to sustainable forestry and support reforestation which ultimately allow us to produce your clothes from wood.

Since the beginning of 2014, when the planting project started, our partner organisation has already planted an incredible 13,596,811,990 trees - with that number rising day by day. Together with you we can continue to give our support this reforestation project!

BUY FAIR CLOTHES AND SUPPORT OUR HABITAT

By placing and order for sustainably and fairly produced clothes at wijld.com you are making a positive contribution not only by protecting the environment but also creating sorely needed jobs for the local population of Campeche Mexico who cultivate and care for the trees. We are very happy about this and support this project with all our hearts!
