Sustainability Matters.
STORIES By SWISSBO only supports Brands that take real action when it comes to Sustainability.
We're looking for more than green-washing from the brands we support; we look for visible initiatives that demonstrate a real-world commitment to making things better- for people and for the planet.
To this end, we shed light on the steps each of our supported Brands are taking to make their businesses more responsible for the impacts they have.

Chilewich textiles are renowned for their beauty and practicality, combining original designs and distinctive colours with extraordinary durability and easy maintenance.
They’re also the product of 20 years of continuous innovation to maximize performance and minimize environmental impact.

This requires extra attention from designers, who must reinforce the advantages of these products and eliminate the disadvantages.
