Why sustainability is important for XO

Have you ever stopped to ponder the impact on the planet of the clothes we purchase or the consumer goods we can’t live without.

While sustainability is often highlighted in manufacturing not much else is done within the supply chain – crucial elements are often overlooked. Production, in particular, is a significant contributor to the overall sustainability of the product life cycle, yet for most companies, it remains business as usual.

At XO we are committed to doing things differently. We recognize that sustainability shouldn’t just be at one juncture in bringing a product to the market but every aspect should lean towards sustainable practices.

We celebrate and want to help create a more eco-friendly and responsible supply chain. We strive to minimise our environmental impact every step of the way – from concept to delivery.

Our mission is to redefine the way fashion and consumer products are captured and brought to market. We are making sustainable practices the norm not the exception. We hope to inspire a positive change and spread the word that it is easy to be green, productive and creative.

There is absolutely no reason why captivating and engaging content has to come at the cost of the planet.
