Ocean Born Lifestyle

For Ocean Born, working to create benefits within a community at risk of exclusion while protecting and restoring the ocean is beneficial for everyone.

For their NO DYE collection they work with A Puntadas, a social workshop located in Alicante (Spain) that is dedicated to textile manufacturing and works for the social and labour insertion of people at risk of exclusion.

In this way they achieve a triple bottom line in which they take care of the planet, while at the same time generating profits and working and taking care of people.

Ocean Born is committed to a model of responsible consumption that allows them to produce garments from natural fibers, avoiding the use of synthetic materials that can contribute to a greater negative environmental impact.

For their ponchos, they work with 100% cotton fabrics, which means that these garments can be recycled in the future. 

They are aware that the conventional cotton cultivation of their current ponchos involves high water consumption and the use of pesticides, herbicides and other chemical products with negative consequences for the environment. For this reason, one of its objectives is to be able to work with biodegradable, recycled and recyclable materials. 

Therefore, for their next NO DYE collection of T‑shirts and sweatshirts, they are working with organic cotton fabrics with the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certificate to guarantee that: their fabrics contain at least 70% organic fibre; that the cultivation and production process has been carried out under fair working conditions; and that logistical aspects such as import and export, labelling, packaging and transport have been carried out in an ethical manner.

Cotton is a natural fibre that biodegrades over time, which reduces the impact it has on the environment compared to synthetic fibres that decompose much more slowly. 

In addition, the ponchos are made of 100% cotton, which makes them easy to recycle once they reach the end of their life.

Ocean Born makes its products in A Puntadas, a social workshop located in Alicante (Spain).

In addition, they choose reliable suppliers on the peninsula. For the fabrics in the NO DYE collection they work with RDD (Research Design Development), a Portuguese company, and for their poncho collection they work with the national supplier Ribes & Casals, which provides them with the product, originally manufactured by Gonclovil.

Ocean Born clothing does not contain animal fibres. All garments are made with cotton.

Ocean Born reflects its commitment to slow fashion by consciously opting for timeless colours. Instead of getting bored of trendy prints and colours after one season, you can keep Ocean Born’s collections of high-quality neutral basics for years to come.

At Ocean Born they are totally transparent, as they publicly display the names of their suppliers, the materials they use and their workshop, something that we at COSH! really appreciate!

In addition, all their garments have a QR code that allows the user to know the story behind the product, an initiative that we at COSH! love!
