ABOUT NANCYBIRD Nancybird is a Melbourne based accessories label, focussing on quality materials and playful, thoughtful design. Much of the range has been hand printed by local Melbourne makers. All leathers are custom made in Italy in gorgeous seasonal colours. The collection has a distinctively Australian feel, using raw, earthy materials with influences from Africa, Japan and Central Europe. You can find nancybird at independent retailers throughout Australia and New Zealand. Nancybird is also constantly looking at the way it produces its range to see if there is a better, lower impact way of doing things. This is an ongoing process, but so far Nancybird has implemented the following measures and changes: nancybird headquarters use 100% wind power and recycles its waste. nancybird uses water based inks for all its hand printed fabrics. This is a less toxic form of printing, compared to solvent based inks and some pigments. nancybird uses all-natural fabrics only – cotton, linen and jute. nancybird uses locally sourced cow or sheep leathers, which are by-products of the meat industry and also prefers to use analine or vegetable tanned leathers, both a lower impact form of tanning. nancybird flatpacks their deliveries, eliminating the usual paper wastage. The reduced bulk also means less fuel is used in shipping and delivery nancybird uses recycled cardboard in its boxes for all bulk deliveries and 100% recycled plastic bags. < Back to Eco Designers + Collection                         NANCYBIRD in the news...                         ..................................................................................................................
