Our Purpose
Jardin Living was founded on the belief that beautiful products should have a positive impact on both people and the planet.
After more than 30 years working within the global fashion, textiles, and accessories industry, founder Kavita Basi witnessed first-hand the environmental and social challenges faced throughout international supply chains. These experiences inspired a commitment to creating products with greater transparency, responsibility, and purpose.
Drawing upon decades of experience in product development and sustainable sourcing, Jardin Living was created to champion ethical design, thoughtful materials, and continuous improvement.
Our Standards
Sustainability is not a destination; it is an ongoing journey of learning, innovation, and accountability.
Inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Jardin Living uses recognised frameworks to guide decision-making across product development, sourcing, manufacturing, and consumer education.
Every supplier, manufacturer, mill, and packaging partner is assessed through Jardin Living's own sustainability evaluation process before becoming part of the supply chain. This provides greater visibility into environmental and social initiatives, including participation in programmes such as REACH, the Higg Index, SCAP, BSCI, and other recognised industry standards.
B Corp Certified
Achieving B Corp Certification in 2023 was a significant milestone in Jardin Living's journey.
This certification recognises the company's commitment to high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, accountability, and responsible business practices. It reflects the values that continue to guide the business as it evolves and grows.
Education & Impact
Jardin Living believes that meaningful change begins with education.
The company regularly shares its sustainability journey, ethical sourcing practices, and product development processes with schools, universities, and organisations to help inspire future generations of designers, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders.
Founder Kavita Basi delivers educational talks and panel discussions focused on sustainability, responsible supply chains, and reducing the environmental impact of fashion and textiles. Internships are offered within the company to universities students based in the U.K. each year.
These sessions have been presented at the University of Cambridge, the University of Liverpool, Manchester Fashion Week, alongside industry discussions with global beauty leader L'Oréal and other educational and professional organisations.
Looking Forward
As knowledge and technologies evolve, so too does Jardin Living's commitment to creating products more responsibly.
The company remains dedicated to exploring innovative materials, improving supply chain transparency, supporting ethical manufacturing, and sharing knowledge that helps contribute to a more regenerative future.
Every decision is guided by a simple principle: to create thoughtfully designed products that respect people, communities, and the natural world.
