about sixhands eco header
 

There are a variety of different basecloths and wallpapers in the Sixhands collection as well as a variety of printing methods which means it's not always possible to offer an eco product across the board.

Sixhands are environmentally conscious and wherever possible choose the most sustainable options available to them while constantly researching to find new sustainable technology and practices that can be implemented throughout their business and products.

The screen printed fabrics are hand-screened using 100% Permaset waterbased inks which are more environmentally friendly and responsible.

The hands are currently researching an eco wallpaper which so watch this space!!!

On a day to day basis Sixhands do the little things such as taking their own cups for morning coffee, recycling and using soya based inks and sustainable paper stock options for the printing of marketing material such as catalogues.

Sixhands hope to affect real change for the better as part of the Australian textile industry by providing more sustainable choices and advising our customers on how to create more from less.

The suppliers of Sixhands, similarly, take ecological sustainability very seriously and strive to make sure that their materials, processes and recycling activities leave the smallest possible ecological footprint whilst maintaining a high quality performance product.
