Environmental Standards

At Victorian Textiles, we are proud to be responsible and doing our part for the environment.

All the plastics we use, including the plastic inserts and packaging for all the wadding/batting, are made from recycled plastic and are fully bio-degradable.
We recycle all the off-cuts of acrylic plastic used in the manufacturing of our rulers into paint pigments.
Victorian Textiles Pty Ltd also buys recycled boxes for our dispatch and recycles all the cardboard cartons used in our day-to-day packaging.
Where possible, our printed materials adhere to environmental practices with the newest standard waterless technology exceeding world-wide printing standards. We print on 100% recycled paper.
Although in the past, cotton has had a poor reputation for its effect on the environment, all cotton fibre used in the manufacture of Matilda's own Cotton batting is sourced from a select group of Australia's most environmentally concerned farmers. These young farmers have developed new low-water usage techniques and are actively improving the standards set by organic farmers in the use of insecticides so that we can all enjoy a sustainable and environmentally-friendly future.
We are constantly on the lookout to improve our "green" performance.
