Ethical Practices
Sandy Toes Beachwear utilises post-consumer recycled polyester (rPET) to reduce plastic waste and repurpose single-use plastics. The products are manufactured in China by ethical suppliers who provide fair wages and maintain safe working conditions. The brand is certified under the Global Recycling Standard (GRS), which confirms responsible sourcing and a reduction in environmental impact. Additionally, all items are 100% vegan and cruelty-free, with no animal-derived materials or testing involved.
Sustainable Practices
Sandy Toes utilises recycled plastic water bottles to create their products, promoting circular fashion and minimising landfill waste. The production of rPET fabric consumes 59% less electricity compared to virgin materials. The brand exclusively employs compostable packaging, including mailers and stickers, for its orders. Their products are designed for durability and reusability, encouraging a 'purchase once' mindset to lessen environmental impact. Additionally, the anti-microbial properties of their products reduce the need for frequent washing, further decreasing energy consumption for cleaning.
Social Impact
Sandy Toes supports ocean conservation by donating a portion of sales from every towel to environmental causes, including Tangaroa Blue, The Rottnest Foundation, Ocean Heroes and Seabin Australia in 2024. The brand raises awareness about plastic pollution through beach clean-ups and shares results to inspire action. It contributes to research by documenting ocean clean-up findings in the Australian Marine Debris Register to aid pollution reduction. Additionally, the brand supports local community events, particularly non-profits and charities, to promote an active, outdoor lifestyle and encourages Australian eco-conscious small businesses, especially those run by women.
Product Reviews by Experts
I love its generous size and how surprisingly soft it feels. It’s perfect for so many occasions like picnics, beach days, etc. I love that it is lightweight and folds up so easily into its matching pouch. I’m impressed by their commitment to raising awareness about plastic pollution. They’re actively helping to educate people and inspire real change. By sharing the impact of their clean-up efforts, they’re encouraging everyone to think twice about unnecessary plastic use and be more mindful of our choices.
I love the beautiful turtle image and the beach clean philanthropic efforts! I appreciate their commitment to supporting Australian ocean conservation non profits. It is so critical, especially now, that we pour energy and funds into conserving our oceans as the US abandons all environmental funding and commitments. I am a huge fan of Tangaroa Blue for their leadership in data collection to quantify ocean conservation impact!
It is a good size and easy to shake sand from and I liked the ocean imagery. I liked that the organisations this brand are choosing to support are ocean focused and WA focused, in keeping with the brand’s ocean theme. The high recycled content is also good to see.
