Kangaroo Belt Company The Sustainability Actions

Uses vegetable-tanned leather

The company says its belts are made with vegetable-tanned kangaroo leather and stainless steel buckles. Vegetable tanning is a leather-making method that uses plant-based materials instead of some harsher chemicals. The brand presents this as part of making durable belts that can last a long time. It also says the belts are made in Australia and that the company is Australian owned.

Offers a lifetime guarantee

The brand says it makes belts designed to last and backs that up with a lifetime guarantee. Its philosophy page says the belts are handmade, built to reduce stress points, and intended to be repaired or replaced if they outlast the owner. The company also says it braids belts to order, which may help avoid making more stock than needed.

Uses some recycled materials

On its corporate page, the company says some products use eco-friendly materials such as recycled rayon fibres and recycled metal buckles. Rayon is a man-made fibre, and recycled versions use recovered material instead of new raw inputs. The page does not give full details on how much recycled content is used or across which products.

Supports charities and nonprofits

The company says it helps more than 14 nonprofits and social enterprises grow their impact around Australia. It also says customers can choose a charity and have a donation made in their name or in the name of the gift recipient. This suggests the brand uses some of its corporate gifting activity to support social causes.
