Piping Hot makes global waves with accessible sustainability

The international apparel and beachwear specialist, Piping Hot has been named among the inaugural Sustainability Leaders list for 2022 by the Australian Financial Review in recognition of the major waves the company is making in accessible sustainability.

Piping Hot kickstarted an overhaul of its business model in 2018 with the transition to more sustainable materials in the production of its swimwear collections. The team was quick to set an ambitious target to reduce the environmental impact of all products by July 2021.

In doing so, Piping Hot has now diverted more than 15.5 million PET plastic bottles from landfill and the ocean and has saved more than 170 million litres of water through its energy and water saving processes.

Most recently, the team has been exploring new material innovation looking towards developments in seaweed, while its Heroes for the Ocean x Marvel licensed collection has caught the attention of global retailers.

The team is now looking at international growth led by its licensing and partnership-focused Heroes for the Ocean division.

“Heroes for the Ocean is our platform for partnering with the world’s best brands to inspire ocean action and sharing our purpose with passionate brand fans is a powerful way to catalyse change,” said Amy Low, brand and marketing director at Piping Hot. “We’re incredibly proud to receive recognition for our work in this way. It gives us great confidence in the global opportunities that we are exploring. We have ambitious goals and look forward to hitting new milestones.”
