Sustainability

Our Promise

As a leader in the retail and swimwear wholesale industry, Aquilon is aware of the profound impact that business operations have on the environment and the world at large. We are dedicated to educating our employees on best practices in support of our evolving sustainability and conservation objectives.

Our Target

Our target is to reduce our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 46.2% by 2030, and to engage 70% of our suppliers to set by 2025. 

Our Sustainability Practices

3D TECHNOLOGY & VIRTUAL DESIGNS

We integrate virtual design and fittings into our concept development to reduce waste and increase speed of development.

ETHICAL SOURCING

We are dedicated to environmental sustainability standards for pre-treatment, dyeing, printing, finishing, and washing mills. We only work with partners who share our values and fill clients’ orders in our 100% socially compliant and audited factories.

TRANSPARENT SUPPLY CHAIN

We are proactive in making sustainable choices in our manufacturing and distribution processes. Our yarns, fabric mills and factories follow the Global Recycled Standard and Recycled Claim Standard to ensure that ~80% recycled materials are used our swimwear collections.
