Underprotection

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.
