Sustainability
Pasithea was born out of a dream to marry the beauty of an indulgent moment with the care and consideration of an environmentally conscious purchase.
Our aim is to provide luxury sleepwear made with minimal environmental impact, and using sustainable practices through all channels.
Bringing this dream to life has taken us on a journey to find suppliers and partnerships that align with our values. Businesses that endeavour to be different, and do better.
Our promise is to make a memorable change, one step at a time.
Our Fabrics
All Pasithea garments are made from natural fabrics that have minimal environmental impact, and are a healthier choice for the planet.
As the Pasithea journey continues, we are dedicated to incorporating new, planet friendly fabrics in our range.
Cotton
Our Robes carry the GOT (Global Organic Textile standard) certification. This certification standard covers all aspects of textile production, from the harvesting of raw materials through to environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing.
The cotton used for our robes is grown without the use of genetically modified seeds, synthetic fertilisers or toxic pesticides, making it safer for cotton farmers to work. This also protects the soil and surrounding environment from contamination.
Bamboo
The Bamboo fabric used to make our sleepwear and bed linen has been tested according to OEKO-TEX®, a globally recognised testing standard. This means there are no harmful chemicals in the production process, from the harvested fibre through to the spinning, weaving and the dyeing processes. Our fabric is free of harmful substances such as azo dyes and formaldehyde, ensuring all garments are comfortable and safe for your skin.
Bamboo is a sustainable and healthy alternative to synthetic satin fabrics that dominate the sleepwear market. Not only is it kinder on the earth, bamboo is also carbon neutral, water efficient and one of the most rapidly regenerating plants in existence. The inherent microbial properties of bamboo also eliminate the need for pesticides and fertiliser, making it a healthier choice for everyday wear. This, along with the fabric’s OEKO-TEX® accreditation, made it the standout textile choice for our first collection.
Greener Packaging
We understand that our environmental impact extends beyond just our fabrications, which is why our packaging has been carefully considered.
The feeling of receiving any new garment is exciting, and sleepwear in particular evokes thoughts of comfort, relaxation and ease. This unboxing experience shouldn’t be tarnished by excessive amounts of single-use plastic.
Our products are packed in bags made from OEKO-TEX® certified bamboo fabric that can be used time and again to store or wash your garments.
All orders are then shipped in certified plant-based compostable mailer bags.
Better Workmanship
The workmanship of all our garments is carefully considered to ensure they stand the test of time when worn and laundered by you.
Our bamboo sleepwear is finished with French seams, and our robes are crafted with extra care taken to ensure longevity and premium quality.
Care of Pasithea Products
Surprisingly, a large portion of the damage done to the environment by the fashion industry occurs through the way we wash and care for our clothing and textiles.
To reduce your environmental impact, we recommend machine or hand washing garments in cold water, and line drying them.
Our garments are fitted with care labels advising against dry cleaning, and encouraging customers to use eco-friendly detergents, washing at 30° rather than at 40°.
