Fabrics

We here at Tsunami Sport believe that our actions locally, will make a global difference in the long run. One such way we are making a change is through our fabric. Currently 90% of our fabrics available to customers are made from our Eco-fit™.
What is Eco-fit™? It is a fabric that contains 50% Recycled PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) that is woven into different weights of polyester. Creating a product that is not only very comfortable, but also possess the same functions that are inherent in performance teamwear.
The majority of our schools and corporate clients have now made the switch to Eco-Fit™ Fabrics. Globally a change is being made and we are leading the way in .

Delivery

We schedule to ship our goods twice a week. Consolidating each supplier’s deliveries to minimize our carbon footprint where we can.
We do offer custom delivery, to meet time critical events,  but this comes at a surcharge as we endeavor to minimize the number of shipments being made weekly.

Packaging

Tsunami Sport have been using biodegradable bags since 2005 and will continue to do so.
A zip lock finish on our packaging is a staple of our packaging. This is to allow for our “no excuses for a single use!”policy. We want these bagsbeing used until they begin decomposing which begins
If the bag is not used to store your dirty shoes or kit in, then it has specifically placed regulation holes to accommodate being used as an ice bag!
For smaller items like socks we have now introduced recycled paper loop wraps rather than bags.

Delivery Cartons

Even our delivery boxes are made from recycled paper. Since our inception this has always been the case. We do when possible recollect these boxes and providing the integrity of the packaging is secure, re use when possible. We hope you see a used box as a positive not a negative. This is another part of our “no excuses for a single use !“ policy.

 

Re-usability

Tsunami Sport are dedicated to ensuring our apparel stands up to the toughest of sports. But beyond the tours, the seasons and one off tournaments a lot of people, teams and clubs who will never use their kits again.This makes us sad, but not anymore.

The textiles industry is built on a ‘take, make, consume, dispose’ pattern of growth. But we want to make sure that we make products where the ‘dispose’ pattern is broken and we can help facilitate the first of hopefully many more cycles of ‘take, make and consume’.

We encourage you to find a new home for any Tsunami Sport garments and support your local communities first and foremost. However, we will always direct items to those in need if asked.

We have a very willing global network who always have needs for sports kit. Please e-mail us and we can connect you with those who could really use your help.

What We Do Not Have

Unnecessary packaging such as Hand Tags – We made the decision that 2016 would see the last Tsunami Sport Hand Tag on our garments.

Something that doesn’t have a function other than marketing aesthetics is something we are willing to sacrifice to minimize our carbon footprint.

Nothing we do will effect the quality or good order delivery of your product but these small steps will help our planet. Hope you support us.
