Eco-Panda has splashed into the eco-clothing market just in time for summer with a brand new line of eco-chic swimwear.
- MARRAKECH – Slide Halter Bra & Basic Pant – Coral
- PANDA WAVE – Basic Tankini & Basic Pant – Green
- MARRAKECH – Halter Monokini – Lime
Eco-Panda swimwear one of the first earth-friendly lines of swimwear and their pieces are made from recycled nylon (pdf) and Xtra Life Lycra. Not only are these recycled but lycra insures the suits last 3 times longer than typical swimwear. Eco-Panda also jumped on this bandwagon early, and currently holds the exclusive rights to recycled nylon in America US, which pretty much makes competition a moot point.
- MANDALAY – Bandeau Monokini – Black
- DREAM CATCHER – Basic Triangle Bra & Banded Low Rise Pant – Coral
- TOKYO STATION – Ring Bandeau & Boy Short – Pink
Other Eco-Panda green perks include:
- Factory Production Process: Eco-Panda is currently developing a qualification checklist to ensure that their factories and offices are following proper recycling practices.
- Packaging supplies and shipping crates are inspected to ensure minimum materials used and maximum sustainability.
