At Scottish Kilt, sustainability is integral to our business, from sourcing to production and community involvement. Based in Virginia, USA, with manufacturing in Pakistan, we focus on ethical, eco-friendly practices, ensuring every kilt is custom-made and tailored for each customer at affordable prices, without compromising on quality.
Ethical Sourcing: Although our name is Scottish, our kilts are made in Pakistan in our own facility, ensuring the highest standards. Manufacturing in Edinburgh would not allow us to offer the top-quality custom kilts at competitive prices. We are proud to have complete control over our processes, without relying on third parties, which ensures the use of eco-friendly materials and sustainable practices.
Waste Reduction: We minimize waste by repurposing every tartan scrap. Leftover materials are sold to small home businesses, helping them create smaller products like wristbands and accessories. This not only reduces waste but also supports local economies. All of our efforts are geared toward leaving the world a better place for future generations.
Energy Efficiency: Our manufacturing facility in Pakistan is fully energy-efficient, powered by solar panels. By leveraging renewable energy, we minimize our carbon footprint while maintaining high productivity and eco-conscious practices.
Fair Labor Practices: We are deeply committed to the welfare of our workers. 98% of our team has been with us since our founding in 2010, which reflects our dedication to fair wages, safe working conditions, and fostering long-term career growth. Our workers are part of the Scottish Kilt family, and their well-being is central to our business.
Community Engagement: Beyond manufacturing, we are invested in supporting local communities. We fund education programs, enabling individuals to gain access to affordable digital learning and career advancement opportunities. Promoting Scottish heritage and giving back to society is a key part of who we are.
Continuous Improvement: We are always looking for ways to improve our environmental and social impact. We welcome feedback from our customers and partners to help us enhance our sustainability practices, ensuring that we continue to play a positive role for both our environment and our valued customers.
Our approach ensures that every kilt, accessory, or product we create is not just a piece of clothing, but a commitment to ethical production, sustainable practices, and community enrichment.
