Arbor Eco Update: UV-Bamboo

admin — Mon, 11 Jun 2012 17:25:48 +0000

Did you know that viscose from Bamboo is more UV resistant than cotton fabrics? Bamboo naturally provides added protection against the sun’s harmful UV rays. Just one more reason to throw on some Arbor Apparel when you head out for the day.

Arbor Eco Update: Nano Bamboo

admin — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:28:18 +0000

Nano Bamboo is created from bamboo that is heated at high temperatures into charcoal and then infused into the fabric. The use of bamboo charcoal goes as far back as the 1400’s during the Chinese Ming Dynasty. Fabrics infused with nano bamboo particles are quick drying and naturally resistant to mold and bacterial growth, which can cause odor and skin irritation. Arbor uses this fabrication in our boardshorts and Windward Jacket. Bamboo is today’s most renewable, sustainably grown raw material.

Arbor Eco Update: Made in USA

admin — Mon, 07 May 2012 19:07:19 +0000

Arbor is currently producing 75% of its environmentally responsible apparel right here in the USA. We are proud to make our T-shirts, Hats and a portion of our knits in Los Angeles, California. In addition to using eco friendly materials by producing our apparel in the United States we help reduce the environmental impact of shipping product from overseas and by manufacturing locally, in LA near our headquarters in Venice, we further reduce the emissions and oil consumption created by trucking product from factories far away.

Arbor Eco Update: Recycled Poly

admin — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 18:13:49 +0000

This SS12 line includes apparel made by recycling products like plastic bottles and trash bags, which reduces our reliance on petroleum and keeps those items out of the landfills and the environment.

Arbor Eco Update: Sustainable & Reclaimed Wood

admin — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 00:05:38 +0000

All of the wood material used in Arbor’s skateboard designs, including the maple plies and veneer deck, come from sustainable sources of supply. All of the wood byproduct created during the production of our skateboards is reclaimed for use by outside companies or in other Arbor products like belt buckles, hang tags, and zipper pulls. This allows Arbor to stretch an important resource, while helping to reduce the strain on landfills and forests.

Arbor ECO Update

admin — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 18:02:39 +0000

Arbor Apparel is always made using sustainable materials. One of our more popular fabrications has been Bamboo viscose, but what makes it such a great eco fabric and comfortable to wear? Bamboo viscose is a reconstituted cellulose fiber made from bamboo timber, which is today’s most renewable, sustainably grown raw material. Bamboo is the fastest growing plant known to man and is self-regenerating. In addition it requires zero pesticides or chemical fertilizers to grow and requires only natural rainfall. Bamboo viscose fabrics are incredibly soft and provide amazing performance benefits to compliment it’s many eco benefits. To learn more check out the Foundation Room.
