Embracing Adventure and Transformation:
this is our mission...
1. Packaging
Since our inception, we at Navigo Cross have been dedicated to advancing towards completely plastic-free packaging. From the beginning, we chose to use cardboard packaging, eliminating any form of plastic interior for protecting our apparel. This decision was driven by our commitment to sustainability and reducing our environmental footprint.
In line with this philosophy, we also offer paper stickers instead of plastic ones. This small but significant change reflects our broader commitment to environmental preservation and responsible practices. By choosing paper stickers, we ensure that every aspect of our packaging aligns with our values of sustainability and eco-friendliness.
Our journey towards plastic-free packaging is an ongoing commitment. We continuously seek innovative and sustainable materials to further reduce our impact on the environment. At Navigo Cross, we believe that every step towards reducing plastic use is a step towards a better future for our planet.
2. Product
Textile industry is evolving. From the product itself to everything that surrounds it. We know there is still a long way to go, but we started building a responsible brand when we chose to use sustainable materials for our garments, a decision that today applies to other areas of our production process as well.
Why do we choose organic cotton?
Organic cotton farming contributes to preserving biodiversity and maintaining healthy ecosystems. Its environmental impact is very low, as it uses less water because it is rain-fed rather than artificially irrigated. It also improves the quality of the soil, as its seeds are not genetically modified and do not require pesticides or fertilizers. This is very important considering that conventional cotton is responsible for 25% of the world's pesticide usage.
What about recycled polyester?
To create a truly circular system, we should reuse the goods we already have. Polyester recycling consists of transforming raw material waste such as plastic bottles into textile fiber. Through this process we address one of the main environmental challenges of recent times, plastic pollution, and we also give utility to something that is going to be on our planet for a long time.
