Over forty years ago, long before environmental consciousness became mainstream, we started integrating sustainable practices into every aspect of our business.
For Staydry, sustainability isn't just a buzzword; it's our legacy.
From pioneering reusable incontinence care products to prioritising eco-friendly manufacturing and packaging, Staydry strives to reduce waste and promote a healthier planet. Our commitment to sustainability is deeply rooted in our history, reflecting a genuine desire to set the industry benchmark for responsible business conduct.
People are becoming increasingly aware of their environmental footprint and choosing companies and products that align with their values. Though this is a great step forward, we firmly believe that the primary responsibility lies with businesses and manufacturers, and the burden should not be placed on consumers.
Eco-Friendly Products for a Greener Tomorrow
At Staydry, we understand the environmental implications of disposable incontinence products. Millions of such items end up in landfills each year, contributing to significant waste and pollution. That's why our product range revolves around reusable options. From our signature washable incontinence underwear to our durable bed pads, each item is designed for hundreds of uses, dramatically reducing the need for disposables and, in turn, lessening landfill waste.
Our commitment to the environment continues beyond reusability. The materials we choose are just as important. We prioritise sustainable fabrics and eco-friendly materials that offer superior comfort and protection while ensuring minimal environmental impact. Our products are a testament to the fact that quality and ecological care can go hand in hand.
A Sustainable Production Process
Sustainability influences not only our product designs but also our manufacturing processes. Our production facilities operate under strict environmental guidelines to reduce waste and conserve energy. By implementing energy-efficient manufacturing techniques and utilising sustainable resources, we strive to minimise our carbon footprint.
We do our absolute best to use primarily Australian materials and produce everything we can locally. At this stage, we do have some overseas manufacturing. Still, we are constantly innovating to support as many Australian jobs as possible and cut emissions wherever possible.
Empowering Customers to Make Sustainable Choices
Staydry's mission extends beyond providing sustainable products; we aim to empower our customers to make environmentally conscious decisions. Through our educational initiatives and community engagement, we advocate for a more sustainable approach to continence care. By choosing our products, our customers opt for high-quality, practical solutions to contribute to a more significant movement towards environmental sustainability.
Closing the Loop with Upparel
Corporations and businesses play a crucial role in environmental stewardship, so we’ve partnered with Upparel to close the loop on textile waste, ensuring our products lead a complete use cycle. When our products reach their end of life, customers can send them to Upparel, where they are either repurposed or responsibly recycled, significantly reducing the impact on landfills.
Our customers receive a voucher to participate, making the process simple and inexpensive. Furthermore, our commitment extends beyond product end-of-life management. With a keen eye on the entire supply chain, we prioritise local manufacturing and sourcing whenever possible and aim to bolster our regional footprint. Staydry is addressing the immediate needs of families and actively participating in a larger conversation by working with local councils to focus on the benefits of washable products.
A Greener Future Together
We envision a future where sustainability is the norm, not the exception. We're continuously exploring new ways to enhance our eco-friendliness, operations, packaging, and recycling, from investing in renewable energy sources for our facilities to researching biodegradable product materials.
Our journey towards sustainability is ongoing, driven by innovation, community, and a deep-seated responsibility towards our planet. By choosing Staydry, you're joining us in this mission. Together, we can significantly impact caring for our world and its future.
