Sustainable Lifestyle

Can style and practicality 
come with sustainability?

PLEATSMAMA utilizes eco-friendly materials and modern knitting techniques to make its bags and accessories, seeking fashion that definitively pioneers a sustainable life in a practical way.

Recycle

Sixteen bottles in one bag

The sort of plastic used in plastic bottles take over a century to naturally decompose.

PLEATSMAMA uses Regen, a recycled polyester fabric produced by internationally renowned synthetic fiber manufacturer Hyosung. Regen significantly reduces carbon dioxide emissions and waste disposal by extracting and reusing components of disposed plastic bottles, resulting in a net saving in petroleum resources.

Low Impact Package

Packaging to the minimum

PLEATSMAMA packages its products to leave the smallest possible environmental footprint. Using INOAC’s self-adhesive shock-absorbing packaging, we substitute both the conventional plastic wrapping and delivery box with just one sheet, minimizing waste.

Zerowaste

Not a scrap left behind

All PLEATSMAMA bags are knitted. Instead of sewing together cut pieces of fabric, the products are deliberately sculpted out of the material. This allows us to eliminate scraps and waste from our manufacturing process.

From JEJU ISLAND

Made from JEJU plastic bottles

For the first time in Korea, PLEATSMAMA has signed MOUs with Hyosung TNC and Jeju Island. In particular, it succeeded in commercializing the world's first 100%-cycle spandex.

PermanentPleats

Knit Pleats Real Eco-Bag

PLEATSMAMA’s patent-pending pleat design does not come from heat or chemical treatment, instead being structurally imbedded into the architecture of the bag. Thanks to this, neither time nor the washing machine will flatten the pleats anytime soon.

Linking

Stitch by stitch, Pleat by pleat

Like knitting a handcrafted sweater, PLEATSMAMA boasts impeccable finishing with beautifully detailed linking and meticulous hand sewing.
