Kuwaii is accredited by Ethical Clothing Australia for all of our made in Melbourne clothing. The majority of our product range is Made in Melbourne, and accredited by Ethical Clothing Australia.
This includes all of our clothing except knitwear and printed tee-shirts. Look for the “Made in Melbourne” on our back neck garment labels, this shows which pieces are made in Melbourne and ethically accredited, or find more information on each product listing and our Manufacturing Page.
Being Ethical Clothing Australia accredited ensures the entire team who create your Kuwaii pieces: from design, production, manufacture and dispatch, are being paid appropriately, receiving all their legal entitlements and working in safe conditions.
We are incredibly proud of our ethical accreditation and our work towards a fairer and more transparent industry.
See our ECA Accreditation here.
Ethical Clothing Australia (ECA) is an accreditation body committed to collaborating with local clothing businesses, ensuring the protection and promotion of the rights of Australian garment workers.
To secure ECA accreditation, we underwent a thorough audit of our operations, spanning from design to dispatch. This comprehensive review ensures that all our workers, including outworkers, are fairly compensated, receive their legal entitlements, and work in safe conditions.
We take immense pride in achieving this accreditation and hope you share in our excitement. In a world where greenwashing is prevalent, we’ve made it simpler for you to shop at Kuwaii with confidence, knowing that every piece of clothing we create in Melbourne is crafted by workers who are treated justly. Our commitment goes beyond a “living wage” - it complies with Australian workplace laws.
