Terramar Organics - clothing - Aberdeen

Buy organic - you know it makes sense... but it doesn't need to stop with food... conventionally produced cotton uses masses of pesticides and these can linger in the fibres of the cotton... read what Terramar Organics have to say on the issue. http://www.terramar.co.uk/page/about/organic/

Our Motivation
To design and sell quality clothing that doesn't cost the earth. To be part of the local economy by using, where possible, local resources and talent. And to promote sustainable living through lifestyle choice - without compromising on style.

We aim to minimise exploitation of natural resources where ever possible, both in our office and in production.

We founded Terramar because we believe that things should be made to last a little bit longer, should be well designed, stylish and, above all, sustainable.

The exploitation of labour in the clothing industry is a significant factor in conventional production. We do not source any of our clothing from factories that use sweatshop practices or exploit their labour.

Our Base
The North East of Scotland, Aberdeen. Where the sun never stops shining. No honestly, it really is very beautiful.

Terramar Organics was founded by two brothers Peter and Tom Marx.
Pete...is a graduate of Aberdeen University where he studied law. A keen climber he can be found with geo-Benny and ctrl-alt-delete Robin attempting to conquer the remotest (and wettest) peaks Scotland has to offer. The worse the weather the better the climb.
