MyComfort Environmental Policy
1. Purpose
This policy outlines MyComfort’s commitment to environmental sustainability and responsible practices in all aspects of our operations.
2. Commitment to Sustainability
At MyComfort, we recognize the importance of protecting the environment for future generations. We are dedicated to minimising our ecological footprint and promoting sustainable practices throughout our supply chain. Our aim is to support sustainability goals to achieve an environmentally sustainable economy by 2050, in line with Irish government guidelines.
Recognizing our responsibility toward the environment, MyComfort is dedicated to supporting healthy seas and promoting plastic removal. Our actions will reflect our commitment to sustainability and community well-being.
3. Use of Recycled Materials
We prioritise the use of recycled materials in our products, such as our Multiway and Sleep well eye masks, which are made with Econyl , an Oeko Tex standard 100 certified fabric. Our products use 28 mm organic elastic, which is GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified. This certification ensures that the elastic is produced in an environmentally and socially responsible manner, aligning with our sustainability goals. These choices reflect our commitment to reducing waste and conserving natural resources.
4. Durability and Lifespan
Due to the durability of our products, their lifespan far exceeds other market options. This longevity not only provides better value for our clients but also reduces the frequency of replacement, contributing to less waste in landfills.
5. Sustainable Production Practices
Our carefully chosen manufacturer’s factory is powered by solar energy, reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
6. Waste Reduction
MyComfort is committed to reducing waste through:
– Utilising 100% recyclable packaging for all our products.
– Promoting a circular economy by designing products for longevity and recyclability.
The use of the eco-friendly fabric “ECONYL® yarn, a 100% regenerated nylon yarn from pre and post-consumer ocean waste materials. Instead of being discarded in landfills, these materials are recovered and regenerated by Aquafil through a complex physical-chemical decomposition process.”( Caravico, fabric supplier)
