Committed to sustainability and social responsibility throughout the supply chain

Sustainability and social responsibility are key values at Sunny Get Up, and we’re green every step of the way! We work with a print-on-demand (POD) supplier so we only produce items we get an order for, avoiding textile waste from overproduction. Our printing partner’s high-quality printing tech creates almost no wastewaters and uses less energy than standard industry printers. The inks we use for printing are Oeko-Tex™ certified, vegan, water-based, and free of harmful chemicals. Our printing partner has also partnered up with Sedex, one of the world’s leading ethical trade service providers to ensure transparency and help monitor supplier compliance. In short, our printing partner aims to improve production sustainability, support employees and communities, combat climate change, and guarantee ethical working standards.

So leave mass-produced clothing behind and get your custom-made wearable art from Sunny Get Up! Read on for more details about our efforts towards sustainable and socially responsible production:


Custom-Made

Each item is made just for you. No textile waste from leftover stock.

Did you know that each item from Sunny Get Up is custom-made just for you? Literally. We only create the product when we receive your order for it, avoiding textile waste. In traditional made-to-sell retail stores, products are made in large quantities and often exceed market demand. Around 85% of all textiles produced by the fashion industry end up in landfills, making it a major contributor to environmental damage. But with Sunny Get Up, each item is printed only when ordered, so there is no waste from bulk or left-over stock ending up in a landfill. Even damaged products are donated to charitable organizations, not thrown into a landfill. 

On demand manufacturing reduces environmental waste

Sustainability in Production

Made with care for the planet.

Print on Demand (POD) Methods:

  • Each item is custom-made only when ordered, and is individually printed, cut, and hand-sewn by an in-house team. The print-on-demand custom production approach is critical in reducing waste.

  • The inks we use for printing are Oeko-TexTM certified, vegan, water-based, and free of harmful chemicals. All ink waste is disposed of to meet environmental regulations.

  • The sublimation printing method used is more eco-friendly because it doesn’t require as much water as compared to other dye transfer techniques. We use Kornit printers that generate almost zero wastewater and use less energy than standard industry printers, which lowers our carbon footprint.

  • Damaged and returned products are donated to local charities.

Materials: When I started Sunny Get Up, my manufacturer was using recycled polyester fabric for some of my products (Longline Sports Bra, Bikinis, Hoodies, Crop Tops) but not others (Leggings, Capris, Onepieces, Trimmed Sports Bras). In Oct 2025, they switched to using recycled materials for all of my products and I was thrilled! The recycled fabric was less peachy and not as stretchy as the old fabric, but still soft to the touch, had improved resistance to pilling and snagging while staying breathable and moisture-wicking. Personally I felt that the recycled fabric was also a little more compressive than the original. At that time I updated all product titles, graphics, and descriptions to include recycled details. Now in Oct 2026 they have switched materials yet again and have discontinued the recycled fabric. While I preferred the recycled material for sustainability, and the original fabric for its peachy lightweight feel, this new fabric also has its strengths. The new fabric is thicker, has a softer hand feel, more stretch, along with better coverage and reduced transparency. It also has a new, more elastic thread to improve seam strength and elasticity. The sizing charts are the same, but you might consider sizing up if you prefer a less compressive fit. Even with this material change, Sunny Get Up is still a sustainable choice.

Packaging: Our printing partner has switched to 90%–100% post-consumer recycled plastic packaging for apparel products. Post-consumer recycled plastic (often referred to as PCR) is made from items that consumers use and recycle every day, like plastic bottles and food containers. PCR packaging protects your order just as well as regular plastic bags, however, choosing PCR over first-use plastics reduces the environmental impact plastic has on our planet.

Shipping: Our printing partner only creates products once an order is placed and delivers over 85% of them within the region they’re fulfilled. That means overproduction is greatly reduced, and strategically-located fulfillment centers lead to lower CO₂ emissions when transporting orders.

  • Fulfillment centers are located in LA, Charlotte, Mexico, and Riga, and each team member enjoys paid time off, healthcare benefits, and a safe and friendly work environment.


Long-lasting quality

Comfortable, durable, and made to last.

These clothes are built to last - Anna personally tested these products for 2 years (regularly practicing and teaching yoga, hiking, and swimming in them) before launching to make sure they held up to regular use and washing, so they won’t wear out quickly and end up in a landfill. Our printing partner also does durability, wash, and wear tests.

Product Care: How you care for your new activewear matters for sustainability too. Please note that activewear items made from polyester/spandex blends release plastic microfibers into the environment during washing. That’s why we recommend getting a Guppyfriend to prevent microfiber pollution. See our Product Care page to learn more about how best to care for your new favorite activewear items so that they continue their sustainability mission and live a long and active life.


“Yoga is at its most democratic when it awakens people to oneness—to the reality that as human beings we are divinely equalized with each other and interconnected with the world we inhabit, to the fact that, while no one else can gain enlightenment for us, nevertheless we are on this journey together.”
— Jeremy Engels, "The Ethics of Oneness"
