Circular Design
Circular fabrics have become the canvas of Shapes in the Sand’s playful Australian textile prints as they celebrate the natural world through colourful considered design. Shapes in the Sand’s core values of circularity, local Australian manufacturing and community-based conservation have been a core focus since the label launched its first collection in 2013.
Our fibres are part of a closed loop system where pre and post consumer materials are fed back into the production cycle to create new life. The materials we use are derived from items that include plastic waste destined for landfill, discarded ghost fishing nets and other pre and post consumer materials like carpet fluff.
Our fabrications come from Italy and meet OEKO-TEX® recycled standards. Our fabrics are printed locally in Sydney, Australia using a printing method that does not require water or any harsh chemicals. Through this method we promise you rich, vibrant colourfast prints.
