Hanky Panky Sustainability Actions

Launched Lingeriecycle®

In 2018, we launched Lingeriecycle®, a Hanky Panky program to recycle bras and panties. We partner with Green Tree, a non-profit organization dedicated to stopping all unwanted post-consumer textile material from entering landfills. Garments are shredded to create fibers for industrial insulation (metal and plastic components are separated for recycling.)

Recycles manufacturing waste

Along with our Lingeriecycle® program, we also send the textile waste from our manufacturing process to Green Tree to be recycled into insulation. We recycle where we can and we also design thoughtfully to efficiently maximize fabric usage and minimize waste.

Supports tree planting

Our customers have planted thousands of trees with One Tree Planted. This environmental non-profit tree-planting charity plants trees in countries around the world.

Uses certified materials

We use responsibly-grown Supima® cotton fibers in our lingerie and sleepwear. These Southwest USA-grown cotton fibers are produced under the CottonLEADS℠ sustainability initiative and have a smaller environmental impact than many imported cottons. All our cotton knit fabrics are knitted, dyed and finished on the east coast, using low-impact, non-toxic fiber reactive dyes. Our Signature Lace is knitted, dyed, and finished in the USA with low impact dyes. Our heather jersey, TENCEL™ and viscose rayon fabrics are created with responsibly-managed renewable wood sources (FSC® and PEFC®). We offer fabrics that are made with Oeko-Tex® 100 Certified yarns that are free of harmful substances.

Limits certain materials

We are committed to never using flocked fabrics, which are prone to shedding fibers. Nor do we use fur, feathers, wool, or leather in any of our designs.

Reduced packaging waste

From our famous rolled thongs, conceived to reduce wasteful packaging materials, to joining prAna’s Responsible Packaging Movement, we make decisions through an environmental lens.

Saved resources in packaging

Our recycled packaging in partnership with ECOENCLOSE has saved 68,916 gallons of water, 115 trees, and 64,421lbs of Co2 equivalent.
