Our vision is to pioneer sustainable practices in design.
Our Core Values
To produce a range of products that reflect the environmentally conscious
values, lifestyles and aspirations of our customers
To maintain ethical and egalitarian business practices for all individuals
associated with the Bird endeavour i.e. employees, producers,
manufacturers, partners
To establish partnerships with individuals and organizations who are
similarly likeminded
To reinvest both financially and practically in the communities within which
we operate
To use environmentally sound manufacturing processes where possible.
To monitor developments in environmental process technologies, and to
adopt where appropriate.
Birds guiding principles are social harmony and environmental responsibility. It is part of our business ethos to promote low impact environmentally friendly local production. This takes place in our studio, and in the homes of co-workers who share the Bird principles and sew using solar power.
