Material

Rhodoïd is a sheet material made in Italy from cotton. The cotton is dyed and pressed into blocks of various colour patterns. Slices are cut from the blocks, which are then processed in France in over ten steps to create enchanting hair jewellery and hair accessories.

Packaging and dispatch

When packaging our hair accessories, we strive for a reliable balance between transport safety and sustainability. That is why we only use recycled paper, cardboard, environmentally friendly packing tape and cotton bags made from naturally renewable raw materials.

Fair Trade barrette

Fair trade is not just fundamental for us, it's a matter of course! That is why we have opted for suitable factories in Europe rather than low-cost production in Asia or Eastern Europe.

It is essential for us that our hair accessories are manufactured under humane conditions, from the extraction of raw materials to the final product. The geographical proximity enables us to gain a closer insight into the individual areas and creates significantly shorter transport routes, so that we contribute to an immense reduction in CO₂ emissions and to the benefit of the environment.

Our barrettes and their packaging are largely made from biodegradable raw materials sourced from sustainable agriculture. By producing in Germany, France, Austria and Portugal, we can fully guarantee compliance with EU environmental standards compared to products produced in Asia.
