We believe in transparency with our current practices and our goals for sustainability, both environmentally and socially.

CURRENT PRACTICES + GOALS


SUSTAINABILITY 

At LAYA Active we are committed to creating a brand that has eco-friendly practices woven through all aspects of the production process from design and production to the packaging and delivery. We aim to continually reach to obtain eco friendly standards and certifications.


WHAT WE’RE DOING NOW

All of our products are made from 100% sustainable materials. We use REPREVEⓇ fabric for our leggings and sports tops. It’s a high-tec athletic fabric made from recycled water bottles, and you can read more about it on our blog here! Our designs are put onto the REPREVEⓇ garment using a process called sublimation, which is a really eco-friendly method. Interested in the technique? Learn more!
For shipping, we use UPS Carbon Neutral methods that offset our shipping footprint by giving more money to global eco initiatives.


SHORT TERM GOALS

By December 2021, we will transition 100% of our packaging and business materials to recycled material including but not limited to: our tags, shipment packaging, business cards, flyers, note cards, stickers, etc!


LONG TERM GOALS

By March 2023: We aim to be a Climate Neutral Certified company. That means we’ll work with the Climate Neutral Non-Profit organization to curb our net carbon emissions down to 0. We also have a goal to make LAYA Active a more circular athleisure brand within the next 5 years. Stay tuned for our initiatives on that!


SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY 

Our other commitment is to our community. We commit to supporting our community in and around New Orleans by partnering with southern based non-profits and by giving our customers an opportunity to donate to their causes.


WHAT WE’RE DOING NOW

Using our blog, social media, and newsletters as a way to call attention to our non-profit partners by sharing their message and their events. List current non-profit partners as a choice for customers to donate a portion of transaction proceeds to.


SHORT TERM GOALS

December 31, 2021: Expand our non-profit partnerships to 10 local non-profits


LONG TERM GOALS

January 1, 2023: Expand our non-profit partnerships to neighboring states and across the country! We invite you to join us every step of the way! Join our newsletter to stay up to date on our goals and events to support both our environmental and community efforts.


In the effort of transparency, this page will be updated as we continue to strive for new goals and build a better future together
