At gaia we produce in-house and purchase our products and raw materials directly from the producer. We maintain good and personal relationships with our partners in order to have the greatest possible control over our supply chains. We are in constant contact with the producers for this purpose.
Our new packaging is made from grass paper. This in turn consists of large amounts of grass, which is left over as a by-product of agriculture. This not only looks nice, but also has the following advantages:
Our gaia wraps or beeswax wraps are made by hand in our factory in Hamburg. Good pay, a relaxed atmosphere and full control over the quality of our goods are very important to us. These are all reasons why we decided against the trend to outsource our production.
We source our cotton from a Fairtrade project in Kyrgyzstan. From there, the journey continues to the Czech Republic, where it is processed. It finally reaches our production facility in Hamburg, Bahrenfeld, through a company for Fairtrade products. Our fabrics are dyed in Germany according to the highest and most sustainable standard.
We source our organic beeswax from Austria. From the beginning it was important to us to work with a partner who has high standards and who regularly checks the beeswax for its quality.
Our organic jojoba is grown in Peru. Jojoba oil makes the beeswax pliable and ensures that it is better protected from light. In addition, jojoba oil has antibacterial properties and thus protects the enclosed contents.
Tree resin acts as a binding agent between the beeswax and the cotton and thus contributes to the durability of gaia wrap. We get our tree resin from traditional bad luck in Austria. Here tree sap is still harvested using the traditional method, as it was hundreds of years ago.
