How is Atelier BALTUS committed to Sustainable and Responsible Fashion?
In a world dominated by fast fashion, Atelier BALTUS stands out for its commitment to sustainable and responsible fashion. Our mission is to create high-end bags and leather accessories that respect both the environment and the people involved in their production. Discover how Atelier BALTUS is committed to more ethical and sustainable fashion.
Use of eco-responsible materials
At Atelier BALTUS, we place great importance on the choice of our raw materials. 99% of our materials come from France or Italy, which reduces our carbon footprint and guarantees exceptional quality. Our full-grain leathers, linens and cottons are selected for their durability and low environmental impact. We also comply with Reach regulations, ensuring that our materials do not contain substances harmful to health and the environment.
Vegetable Tanning: an ethical and ecological choice
We favor vegetable tanning for our leathers, an environmentally friendly method using natural tannins from plants. Unlike chrome tanning, vegetable tanning does not pollute water and does not leave chemical residues. The result is hypoallergenic and durable leathers, which develop a beautiful patina over time.
Waste Reduction and Recycling
Atelier BALTUS is also committed to minimizing its waste and promoting recycling. We optimize the use of our materials and are constantly looking for ways to reuse leather scraps and other textiles. Our packaging is designed to be recyclable or reusable, thus reducing our environmental impact.
Local and Artisanal Production
Our products are made in France, from design to distribution. By working closely with local workshops, we support French artisanal know-how and guarantee fair and equitable working conditions. This proximity to our workshops also allows us to reduce transport-related emissions and rigorously control the quality of each piece.
Social Commitment
We believe that the person who makes our products is as important as the one who wears them. That is why we co-create our products with our workshops in a fair and respectful relationship. We ensure that artisans benefit from fair working conditions and fair remuneration, thus contributing to a more humane and ethical production chain.
Timeless and Functional Design
Atelier BALTUS creates timeless bags and accessories, designed to last and adapt to the needs of modern women. Our products do not follow the ephemeral trends of fast fashion, but focus on utility and versatility. Each piece is designed to make everyday life easier, combining aesthetics and functionality. Thanks to our " Les Liens " collection, you can find your objects in the blink of an eye, reducing stress and saving time.
