This brand works with small batik entrepreneurs from Java, Indonesia to source batik fabrics. Working with these small businesses for long periods of time not only ensures their ability to monitor sustainable workplace practices, but also contributes to preserving the ancient craft and its artisans in modern society. The brand also makes sure to visit often, and pay fair prices for the materials sourced.
The fabrics come from Enschede Textielstad, a Dutch weaving company that produces high-quality fabrics. This local production reduces transport emissions and guarantees fair & safe working conditions.
Final stages of production, including stitching and assembly are conducted locally in Het Gildelab as well as Guave’s own studio in Amsterdam; keeping part of the production in-house makes it easier to ensure healthy working environment and fair wages.
10% of the proceeds of their waistcoats collection is donated to Indahnya Sedekah Netherlands foundation, which supports people in Indonesia with education, food and relief during natural disasters.
