We’re committed to reducing waste and offcuts throughout the pre-consumer phase by working closely with our suppliers on new production techniques, and implementing smart design. We also strive to recycle and safely dispose of any waste that we can’t avoid.
Our search for safer, renewable and natural alternatives for adhesives, fabrics, polymers, components and packaging is ongoing. We are striving to maximize the use of these emerging technologies to lessen the impact of our products on the environment. Miharo 6+, for example, already includes coconut fiber in place of fossil fuel-based yarn.
If your bag or any other AMPLIFI product is ever damaged, we will try and repair it for you. Better your product bears some battle scars than is thrown away as trash.
