Earth First
We use Bella + Canvas as our garment supplier so you know you are getting the best quality created with the best practices.
Water Reduction
By using newer, more efficient dye machines, Bella Canvas use 7x less water than the average for clothing manufacturers, saving 24 million gallons a week. Any water they do use goes through a filtration system that allows it to be recycled.
Energy Reduction
Bella Canvas is a green company through and through - taking every opportunity they can to reduce their co2 emissions. If you take a quick tour around their headquarters you'll find they use motion-sensor LED lighting and skylights throughout each building, and electric car charging stations to encourage employees to go green.
Virtually Zero Waste
Their manufacturing facilities and LA Headquarters produce almost no landfill because they recycle pretty much everything that can't be turned into a tee. They've optimized their cutting to reduce plastic use, and excess fabric is recycled into a number of things like baby bibs or stuffing for upholstery. Let nothing go to waste!
No Sweatshops
Doing things the right way has never been up for debate. Bella Canvas have been manufacturing in the U.S. and internationally in a no-sweat-shop, humane, sustainable way since day one. Their Platinum W.R.A.P. certification is just a small indication of how hard they work to make their sewing and cutting floors pleasant, productive, comfortable places to be.

Human resources management
Health and safety standards
Environmental and eco-friendly practices

BELLA+CANVAS is also a Participating Company of the Fair Labor Association and has committed to upholding the FLA Workplace Code of Conduct and Principles of Fair Labor and Responsible Sourcing throughout its entire supply chain.
