Ethical Practices
UME Australia is committed to supporting local manufacturing, with all their products ethically made in Melbourne. They prioritise Australian-made packaging and materials to ensure compliance with the Fair Work Act 2009, protecting worker rights. The brand uses natural fibers, opting for 100% organic cotton and wool and deliberately avoids synthetic materials like polyester and elastane in their baby and children's wear.
Sustainable Practices
UME Australia utilises recyclable, Australian-made packaging, including shipping boxes, tissue paper, stickers and cards, to create a sustainable supply chain with a reduced carbon footprint. They employ minimal packaging and take pride in the custom-printed boxes sourced from a family-owned paper mill in Melbourne. The filler for their playmat range is organic Australian wool, chosen to avoid synthetic materials like polyester. Both wool and cotton are breathable, hypoallergenic and decompose at the end of their life cycle, aligning with a circular fashion business model. The fabric used is certified organic, produced by Australian manufacturers without fumigants, ensuring its environmental friendliness. Furthermore, toxicity reports from the AWTA are available to support UME Australia’s sustainability efforts.
Social Impact
Since its inception in 2020, UME has supported numerous small Australian manufacturers and suppliers by prioritising locally made components. The brand is committed to an Australian supply chain, which is central to its ethos. Their signature organic pointelle fabric, the only Australian-made pointelle, is knitted in Melbourne by a family-owned fabric manufacturer, which led to the recommissioning of a specific knitting machine that had been unused for over 20 years. Engaging Australian family businesses is a source of pride for the brand and contributes to the strength of the local manufacturing and textile industry.
