Underprotection
Slipping into something silky or lacey should feel like a total treat. Whether it's a delicate bralette or a gorgeous pair of hipsters, lingerie is a fun way to feel special and give yourself some self-love. However, most lace undergarments are made with stretchy, virgin plastics that don't last very long, feel itchy on the skin, and contribute to a global waste problem. There haven't been many options for those with a passion for pretty things who also aim to lead a planet-friendly lifestyle...until now. Welcome to Underprotection -- an eco-luxe lingerie brand proving that a green closet does not have to be dull and that sustainability CAN be fun!
Founded in 2010 by Sunniva Uggerby and Stephan Rosenkilde, Underprotection was born from a vision of merging ethics with aesthetics. The innovative duo had a goal to provide stylish, sustainable clothing that was thoughtfully-designed and suited for all body types. From elegant matching sets to silky loungewear and flattering swimwear, the Danish brand is revolutionizing the world of fashion by employing upcycled and recycled materials, natural fibers, and ocean-bound plastic.
Each delightful silhouette, from briefs to bralettes to maternity wear, emphasizes confidence and inspires a little self-indulgence. Underprotection's ethically-made intimates are the perfect way to pamper yourself, with stunning styles that will make you feel fabulous and thoughtful materials that are soft on the skin and gentle on the planet.

Ethics and Aesthetics
Lingerie that supports everyone, from creator to consumer to planet. Underprotection has placed ethics and sustainability at the forefront of their mission. Their thoughtful material use, packaging, and ethical manufacturing are what truly make them stand apart from others in the lingerie world.
Materials: From durable stockings made from entirely recycled materials to elegant tops and bottoms made from natural fibers like organic cotton, upcycled wool, and TENCEL, each sophisticated intimate is made with the utmost thought and care. Even the pads inside their bras are 100% recycled and GRS certified! Their use of sustainable materials saves water and energy and redirects waste that would otherwise head straight for the landfill. Underprotection also employs two unique textile alternatives - banana fiber and milk fiber. The sustainable banana fabric is made from the banana leaf, a byproduct of banana harvesting that may be turned into a fine and light fabric that's perfect for loungewear. Their milk fabric features a fascinating process that spins a protein from sour milk into a delicate, soft, and shiny silk-like fabric.
Packaging: In the clothing industry, the packaging is often the area most brands fall flat. Underprotection understands the irony of creating an eco product, only to package it in virgin plastic. They've made a great effort to package their delicates in biodegradable or recyclable bags (no wasteful poly bags, here!) and any paper used is FSC-Certified and made of recycled components.
Ethics: As a Certified B Corporation, Underprotection puts environmental and social responsibility above profit, meeting rigorous standards for ethics and sustainability at every step of the manufacturing process. When made by Underprotection, every article of clothing carries the standards of WRAP, BSCI, and GOTS; certifications that ensure a safe, fair, and eco-friendly supply chain.
