Andie

Andie reports that 75% of its products are made with recycled materials, specifically recycled nylon and polyester. However, it's unclear how this was calculated and what it means for overall recycled material percents - it may mean that 75% of its products contain >1% recycled content. Andie also uses virgin polyester and nylon, as well as spandex. Commons couldn't find any stated plans to increase low emissions materials and/or decrease synthetic materials.

Andie doesn't share information on its energy strategy. Andie sources and manufactures its materials globally, which is standard practice in the textile industry.

Andie has made efforts to reduce virgin plastic in its packaging, and currently uses 100% recycled plastic for its polybags, as well as 100% recycled paper. Andie is working to reduce its shipping emissions to customers by using ocean freight for the majority of its upstream shipping.

Andie doesn't offer repair services or support. Andie doesn't offer a warranty. It gives detailed and environmentally conscious care instructions for its products.

Andie has two takeback partnerships: one with Helpsy for production waste, and one with Trashie for consumer use. Helpsy collects production waste for recylcing, donation, and downcycling. The Trashie partnership is open to customers and accepts the brand's own clothes for recycling. Andie shares details on how successful the Helpsy program is at diverting items from landfills, but doesn't share details on Trashie. The Trashie partnership could be more prominently promoted to consumers.

Andie offers a core collections across multiple seasons but also releases new items seasonally each year. It limits overproduction and waste via batch production.

Andie publishes information about its supply chain partners, disclosing their geographic locations across Tier 1 (final production manufacturing).
