Sustainability

Fast fashion is one of the most resource-intensive industries. At Wayla, we embrace slow fashion - redefining value and challenging the culture of overproduction and mass consumerism. We offer an alternative to mass-produced fast fashion made in sweatshops, often from synthetic, petroleum-based materials such as acrylic and polyester. As we work towards overstock-free production, we manufacture in small batches, honoring sustainable production practices and compensating our workers fairly for their skilled craftsmanship.

Every piece we create is made from natural resources - whether it’s sustainably forested fibers, plant-based materials, or biodegradable packaging. Our hangtags, stickers, and boxes are made from paper and cardboard, sourced from trees. To help restore balance, we plant two trees for every item ordered online.
Through our partnership with GoodAPI and Eden Reforestation Projects, this initiative helps regenerate forests, support biodiversity, and contribute to global reforestation efforts. It’s a small but meaningful way to give back to nature and ensure that sustainability is more than just an ideology - it’s a practice.
Because sustainability isn’t just about what we take to create - it’s also about the world we help to create.

Sustainability is reflected in the materials we choose, ensuring that every fabric aligns with our values of responsibility and long-term impact.

Our linen collection is made with OEKO-TEX® CERTIFIED linen produced from environmentally and socially responsibly grown certified EUROPEAN FLAX® fiber. EUROPEAN FLAX® certificate guarantees traceability of the fibre as well as waste free cultivation without use of irrigation, GMO or chemicals. A garment made with OEKO-TEX® CERTIFIED linen from EUROPEAN FLAX® is an eco-responsible choice with low environmental impact.

All our packaging is plant based and biodegradable. Please REUSE, RECYCLE & COMPOST accordingly.
Recycled paper products remain limited in Indonesia, but we continue to seek the most sustainable options available. We remain committed to sourcing even more sustainable packaging solutions as local availability improves. On the whole, we pack our garments in the most minimal way while still offering a touch of elevation and ensuring all items arrive safely and undamaged.

We do not use single use plastic bags for individual items. Instead we store our stock in our showroom in reusable, breathable containers and place each order before shipping in our custom kraft cardboard boxes. These boxes are biodegradable and can either be reused, recycled or composted accordingly.

All above items are plastic free, made with plant based materials and are all recyclable and compostable.

After extensive research, we initially chose recycled plastic mailers over compostable ones, as most compostable options still contain about 85% virgin petroleum-based material. However, in this time our shipping partners require us to use their plastic mailers for oversees shipping so we decided not use nor order separate ones from overseas.

E-commerce deliveries leave a carbon footprint, so we offset all our shipments by supporting innovative companies that remove carbon from the air.
Through this initiative, participating businesses have removed thousands of tonnes of carbon and provided millions of carbon-neutral shipments worldwide.
For every order, the Planet by Shopify app calculates shipping emissions, and a portion of our revenue is automatically directed to Carbon Direct-vetted carbon removal companies. These funds support projects that remove as much carbon as our shipments create, with any extra contributions helping advance carbon removal technology for the future.
We take responsibility for every shipment, making sure our deliveries support a lower-impact future.
