At Tiaki, each colour applied to our garments is prepared with environment-friendly materials and ways that are safe for your kid’s delicate skin. We use natural dyes derived from fresh leaves, colourful fruits and other natural products to ensure that our clothes are harmless to our beloved little ones and the environment.
At Tiaki, each colour has a story of sustainability and love behind it to bring out the happiness and affection of the world we are eager to pass on to our children.
At Tiaki, we choose natural dyes not only for their beauty but because they’re the healthiest choice for both our little ones and the planet. These dyes, derived from the vibrant palette of nature; are free from toxic chemicals typically found in synthetic dyes. They are naturally resistant to irritants and allergies alongside being gentle on even the most sensitive of skins.
Natural dyes are kind to the skin and the environment. They possess hypoallergenic and antimicrobial properties, making them ideal for children who might suffer from skin sensitivities. These properties inhibit bacterial growth, offering a cleaner and greener alternative to synthetic options. Furthermore, many natural dyes carry beneficial medicinal properties that, while not sought after in clothing, provide a comforting thought about what is in contact with our bodies.
Natural dyes are renewable and completely biodegradable, leaving a positive imprint on the earth. Their use reduces harmful waste streams associated with synthetic dyes, such as water pollution and toxic waste, which can contaminate our natural resources. By choosing natural dyes, Tiaki commits to a production process that respects environmental health and enhances soil fertility, ensuring that the colours in our garments do as much good in the world as they do in your child’s wardrobe.
The process of creating natural dyes is labour-intensive, often involving skilled artisans who use traditional methods passed down through generations. This not only preserves cultural heritage but also supports rural economies, providing meaningful work and fostering community development.
