Our Impact
It is impossible to ignore the importance of developing sustainable practices in today's climate, and at CULTIVER we consider this at every step of the design process.
We are committed to ensuring our pieces are sourced, crafted and delivered to you in a responsible manner. Part of this is considering how we can maximise the use and extend the life of each piece we produce, delivering a quality and style that will last for years to come.
Producing Responsibly
At CULTIVER, we pride ourselves on our close relationship with manufacturers, and knowing that our products are made with care, and under fair and safe working conditions. Our supply chain has been built to ensure our impact on the environment is minimal. This includes where we choose to source our raw materials from, and subsequently craft each product, as well as how they reach our warehouses across the world.
The choice to work predominantly with linen was not only due to the quality of the textile, but also its environmental benefits. Linen is derived from flax, a highly sustainable crop that requires far less water and pesticides than other crops. You can read more about our materials here.

Inventory
We are careful not to overproduce stock, and often buy in small quantities to avoid a surplus. While we understand that out of stock items can be disappointing, it’s a sacrifice we make to minimise our environmental impact.
Our collection is designed to evolve with your style. We intentionally introduce new colours and items that can easily be styled with our core pieces, encouraging a mentality of refresh not replace.
A Lifetime of Linen
In today’s throwaway culture, we make sure our pieces are crafted with integrity and designed to be used daily.Our collection is designed to evolve with your style.

Our Packaging
All of our packaging is fully recyclable. Our labels and our paper mailers are made with 100% recycled paper. Our boxes and wrap are made with a minimum of 50% recycled paper board and are printed with water based inks. These inks are free of harsh chemicals and metal deposits, making them safer for the people producing them, receiving them, and the environment.
Our linen bedding and table napkins come in matching drawstring bags that are made using the off-cuts of our sheets, meaning there is no wastage in the manufacturing process. While originally designed to store your linen when it’s not in use, the linen drawstring bags can also be repurposed for a range of other uses. Find inspiration on how to reuse them here.
