Mister Zimi Sustainability Actions

Carbon neutral since 2020

Mister Zimi says it has been certified carbon neutral since October 2020 through the Carbon Reduction Institute’s NoCO2 Program. It says it measures its yearly carbon footprint, works to reduce emissions, and buys carbon credits for the emissions it cannot avoid. The brand also says those credits support certified renewable energy projects. This is a carbon offset approach, which means a company pays for projects that reduce emissions elsewhere to balance out its own footprint.

Annual factory audits

The brand says all factories are audited every year by third-party assessors. It also says the audits include Corrective Action Plans, or CAPs, which are follow-up steps used to fix problems found during checks. Mister Zimi says suppliers must follow its Supplier Code of Conduct, which covers working conditions, wages, health and safety, and environmental care. It also says it expects no forced, bonded, or child labour, and that equal opportunity and non-discrimination are basic rules in its supply chain.

Uses pre-orders to cut waste

Mister Zimi says its production model is reactive and includes pre-orders, so it can make more of what customers actually want instead of guessing demand. That can help reduce overproduction, which is when brands make too many items that may never sell. The brand also says it designs long-lasting collections and uses preferred fibres such as cotton, linen, and LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose, a branded fibre made from wood pulp with lower-impact production than standard viscose.

Joined UN Global Compact

Mister Zimi is a member of the United Nations Global Compact Network Australia. That means it has aligned its business with the UN Global Compact’s Ten Principles, which cover human rights, labour, the environment, and anti-corruption. The brand says it also takes part in UN Global Compact programs such as the Business & Human Rights Accelerator and Climate Action initiatives. These are meant to help companies improve how they manage social and environmental risks.

Supports product care and longevity

Mister Zimi publishes detailed care advice for many fabric types, including viscose, linen blends, cotton, denim, leather, suede, crochet, knitwear, swimwear, towels, and lurex. The guidance focuses on gentle washing, air drying, and avoiding harsh detergents or tumble drying. This kind of care advice can help clothes last longer, which may reduce the need to replace them as often.
