Sava­ra Inti­ma­tes is a locally pro­du­ced and sus­tai­na­ble Dutch lin­ge­rie brand. The small com­pany pro­du­ces everything in-hou­se in the Nether­lands, so it has com­ple­te con­trol over the qua­lity and envi­ron­men­tal impact of its pro­ducts. The lin­ge­rie has a cle­ver adjus­ta­ble size sys­tem, which extends its lifes­pan. Local ate­liers in Ams­ter­dam and Zeist deli­ver a qua­lity pro­duct that is hand­craf­ted and made with care under great wor­king con­di­tions.

Sava­ra Inti­ma­tes is trans­pa­rent about what its pro­ducts are made of. Its ten­cel fabrics ori­gi­na­te in Tur­key and are cer­ti­fied by Oeko-Tex 100, which ensu­res that no harm­ful che­mi­cals are used in the pro­duc­tion pro­cess. The Dutch brand com­bi­nes the­se ten­cel fabrics with fabric sur­plus mate­rials that ori­gi­na­te from both Italy and Lat­via, and have the Glo­bal Recy­cled Stan­dard cer­ti­fi­ca­te. Watch out with the cups though, the­se are still made from pol­yu­retha­ne and pol­yes­ter, which are deri­ved from oil. The com­pany is com­ple­tely trans­pa­rent about this, sta­tes that it’s loo­king for alter­na­ti­ves and encou­ra­ges cus­to­mers to reuse cups they already have. Further­mo­re, Sava­ra Inti­ma­tes does not use any ani­mal pro­ducts in its pro­duc­tion pro­cess, which makes them a vegan brand.

Finally, let’s look at envi­ron­men­tal per­for­man­ce. The com­pany plants a tree for every pro­duct it sells and uses cons­cious and sus­tai­na­ble pac­ka­ging. With its local pro­duc­tion Sava­ra Inti­ma­tes keeps trans­por­ta­tion at a mini­mum and its mate­rial sour­cing policy does the same. The next step the com­pany can take is the mea­su­re­ment and publi­ca­tion of its car­bon foot­print and rene­wa­ble energy consumption.
