Sustainable Brand Profile: MATE the Label
Mate the Label
Women’s, Men’s & Kid’s Clothing
MATE is a sustainable brand that was established by a group of women with the aim of producing "Clean Essentials" through sustainable methods in Los Angeles. Their product line consists of items crafted from non-toxic, natural, and organic materials, including various types of organic cotton such as thermal, terry, jersey, and stretch. This wide array of materials enables them to create a diverse range of products suitable for various activities and climates. Their collection of loungewear sets not only prioritizes comfort but also reflects a post-pandemic style, and their activewear range embodies a compelling style that can inspire anyone to engage in physical activity. Furthermore, MATE has strategically localized its entire supply chain within a ten-mile radius, managing all stages from cutting and sewing to dyeing, packaging, and shipping within their Los Angeles facility. This localized approach plays a significant role in reducing their carbon footprint, making MATE an excellent option for those who wish to endorse sustainable and eco-friendly practices. Additionally, in their recycling program, they have a process where they accept your old garments and upcycle them into new MATE products, giving them a new life. They also gather all the cutting scraps from their factories and utilize a mechanical fiber recycler to incorporate them into creating new MATE products!
