Understanding Sustainability & the Jargon

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Here at Bar One Clothing, sustainability and the effect it has on the environment is one of our core beliefs. We are working hard to bring you some of the most eco-friendly products that are all constructed to the highest quality. From Stanley/Stella to Earth Positive and many brands inbetween, everyone is getting on board. There is no denying that organic and sustainable clothing has become a big part of the industry. But there is a lot of jargon that can sometimes be confusing, so we have compiled a small glossary to help you.
