Talowood’s journey started in early 2018 in a little town in the beautiful Otway region in Victoria’s south west.
Our lifestyle brand is focused on environmentally like minded people that enjoy the great outdoors and activities. Hitting the tracks chasing waterfalls, bush walking, mountain biking, snowboarding or just hanging down at any of our beautiful beaches. If we don't focus on making change today, these privileges that we take for granted now may not be around for our children in years to come.
The fashion industry as a whole is one of the biggest polluters in the world. Coming from someone who loves clothing and design this is a devastating fact and something needs to change. Sustainability and responsible production of our clothing and apparel is at the centre of our mission and working hard to improve where we can. We are committed to ensure where possible during our sourcing methods to use only Australian or Organic Cotton. All our internationally sourced items hold a Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) an internationally recognised organic textile standard.
All our apparel is hand printed in house using the highest quality eco friendly inks and 100% solvent free. This is something i'm very proud of and ensures our carbon footprint further in production of our brand.
Rest assured that we just don't stop there! All our postage packaging is 100% compostable and can be used a second time once you get your delivery.
The noissue tissue paper and cardboard is acid free, sulphur free and lignin free. Be proud when you buy with us as the ‘Eco Packaging Alliance’ allows you to be part of something really special.
Just pop it in your compost bin and let the worms do their work :)
Being bought up in the bush, I have always had an appreciation for trees and the environment and had a dream of making an impact through business by assisting with donation to grow more vegetation and trees in Australia and around the world.
In poorer countries this creates jobs, business, farming, wildlife and more importantly food sources for the people that need it most.
