About EcoJay

We believe that fashion and sustainability can go hand-in-hand

Ecojay is on a mission to be a part of the solution to the global climate change crisis. We do this by adopting and proliferating the practice of sustainability in the apparel industry.

We believe that fashion and sustainability can go hand in hand, and we strive to create products that are both stylish and eco-friendly. Our collection of recycled apparel is just the beginning of our commitment to reducing waste and promoting ethical practices in the fashion industry.

Our Vision

Elimination of used apparel ending up in landfills or getting incinerated

Elimination of used plastics (PET) ending up in landfills, oceans or getting incinerated

Support efficient use of cultivable land through leadership in the circular economy

We manufacture apparel and accessories that align with
this vision and with international efforts such as the:

UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

EU Strategy for Sustainable and Circular Textiles

We believe a unified global effort is critical to combat the climate change crisis.
