At C.A Australia, we continue to strive to make our products as Eco-friendly as possible! Starting back in 2018, we transitioned all our products to contain 100% certified (GRS) recycled plastic fill (RPET), include FSC hangtags and RPET sew in labels (which are attached with a cotton stitch), and all printed with Soy ink as a minimun standard.
We continue to advance our sustainability goals and have now transitioned to using 100% recycled fabric on the majority of our products. We continue to work closely with fabric mills to develop new styles of fabric which align with our sustainability goals.
Our drive to innovate leads to eco-friendly products that meet our customers' evolving needs and make a positive impact on the world.
At C.A Australia, we are committed to sustainability by using Ocean Bound Plastic (OBP) as the fill material for majority of our products.
OBP is plastic waste at risk of entering the ocean, contributing to 80% of marine plastic pollution. By sourcing OBP—abandoned plastic waste found within 50 km of coastlines where waste management is ineffective — we help prevent plastic from reaching our oceans. Unlike plastic already secured in managed landfills, OBP is often discarded in uncontrolled sites, making it a major environmental threat. By repurposing this waste, we give it a second life, reducing pollution and promoting a cleaner planet.
The Ocean Bound Plastic (OBP) Certification Program was developed in collaboration with the certification group Control Union. This certification program aims to confirm the following:
We are devoted to preserving the animals we bring to life and championing conservation through unwavering dedication to sustainability.
