Adore Me x Ever Dye: The First-Ever Bio-Sourced Pigment Collection
The hottest colors — without the burn. We partnered with our friends over at Ever Dye and created a comfy, cozy PJ style that comes in two different colors. The difference between these PJs and your average PJs? They were dyed using Everydye’s low-heat, low-energy, bio-based pigments and processes — and we’re one of the first brands to leverage this cutting-edge process.
-
Composition:
The pigments used to dye these styles are bio-sourced components and were created according to Green Chemistry Principles!
-
Usage:
These pigments can be dyed at room temperature — allowing for the use of about 10x less energy during the dyeing process compared to conventional methods.
-
Impact:
Because less energy is used in the dyeing process, greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by a factor of 4.
-
Quality:
Rest assured that the quality of these styles aren’t compromised. These pigments meet even the most stringent of quality criterias in the industry.
AIM: Adore Me’s Eco Design Matrix
We recognize that as a retailer, we take part in an industry that inherently causes significant environmental impact — so we go out of our way to improve our products and increase transparency with our customers. AIM is a tool that our very own team engineered to score the design of each individual product based on four different impact areas. It provides insight as to how we can improve our current design and manufacturing processes to reduce impact in the future!
Based on these categories, AIM gives each Adore Me product an average score that ranges from 0–5, 0 being the lowest score and 5 being the best score possible. Knowing that even the most sustainable products currently on the market have room for improvement, AIM was designed so that no product could receive a perfect score of 5. Based on industry practices as well as our own design/manufacturing capabilities, Adore Me currently considers any product with an AIM score of 1 or higher to be “sustainable.”
While AIM is primarily an internal tool, it’s also used as a resource for our Marketing team to accurately communicate with our customers about relevant sustainability efforts during the shopping experience. If you see a product on our website with the “Adore Me Cares” badge, that means we consider that style to be “sustainable.” With this, you may also notice icons that indicate the use of preferred fibers, waste-minimizing manufacturing, water-efficient manufacturing, and/or reduced chemical use — which means that product received a score of at least 2 out of 5 in that specific AIM category!
