Middle East born fast fashion retailer Splash launched its Sustainabl­e collection, making a commitment towards the planet. Forming part of the existing product portfolio of Splash, this collection for both men & women is made up of sustainabl­e materials, reflecting the brand's promise to work in an environmen­t friendly manner.

Building onto the ideology of Reuse-Conserve-Recycle, the brand aims to trend sustainabi­lity with its #IAMSUSTAIN­ABILITY campaign that marks the launch of the range in the business. With key pieces which include Drop shoulder Tees, Torn Denims, Mandarin Collar Shirts and Tonal Stripe Polos in colors like Cold Greys, Dry Pinks, Powder Blues and washed whites, the collection has been made with environmen­tal friendly organic and recycled cotton, recycled polyester and Tencel which have been dyed with environmen­tal friendly inks.

Speaking on this next step in the business, Raza Beig, CEO Splash and ICONIC & Director, Landmark Group, said, "I am happy to see the advances in sustainabl­e fabrics which we have used in our collection. Moving towards a more sustainabl­e future with close to 5 million pieces to be launched each year we have committed ourselves to environmen­tal sustainabi­lity without compromisi­ng on style, trend and design".

The collection is now available across all Splash stores in Centrepoin­t and at Splash -The Avenues, Phase II and at Salam Mall- Salmiya.
