What a journey it’s been getting bags made up for the LOFI stove. Who would have thought that finding environmentally sustainable materials and factories with ethical work practices was so difficult? 💚
The 1st bags that were offered to me, you know, the standard mesh bags we see on so many camping products were an unbelievably low price. $0.23 ?!! I had to question it…
How is this even possible? 😥
I’ve since sourced RPET mesh, which is made from an old stock of recycled post-consumer waste, and I think it’s also recyclable too. The factory has been recently audited to assess the quality of working standards, wages, and overtime worked.
I’m looking forward to becoming a more established brand so that I have even more leverage in these markets 🕊
