How can I shop more sustainably or ethically?

How can I buy more sustainably?

First and foremost, it is important to mention that the most sustainable product you have is the one you already own. Whatever the materials or production country, all new products have an impact on the environment and the people.

That being said, we also understand that from time to time, we all enjoy adding new pieces to our wardrobe or our home.

When shopping for something new, we always encourage you to check the materials. Keep an eye out for organic or recycled options! We want you to shop with confidence, so sustainability claims you see on Boozt are backed by solid proof. To guarantee complete transparency, we rely on globally recognized, third-party certifications to verify the products we carry.

What do all the certifications mean?

The meaning of certifications can vary depending on the certification itself. Most certifications deal with the integrity of materials used in products (i.e. Global Organic Textile Standard, Responsible Wool Standard, Leather Working Group), other certifications deal with recycling (i.e. Global Recycling Standard, Recycled Claim Standard), some deal with social compliance (i.e. BSCI, SMETA…), and so on. In most cases, certifications prove certain claims of a product, as all information provided is checked and verified by the certification body.

To make it easier for consumers, whenever one of our products is certified, we always address what the certification covers. That information can also always be found online. We invite all customers who are curious to know more about certifications to directly refer to the website of the certification of interest. We use certifications, as they are independently issued by third parties.

What is our Animal Welfare Policy?

Boozt has banned the following materials: all fur, angora and exotic skins. In our Fashion selection, we sell products with other animal fibres, including wool, silk, cashmere, alpaca, leather, and down & feathers. In our Beauty selection, we sell vegan products. Those products are labelled as such onsite in the product information.
