Our values
Our recycled materials
We use recycled materials for the manufacturing of our backpacks, sports bags, cases, among others. The use of recycled polyester is an eco-friendly option for the production of our accessories and clothing. Indeed, virgin polyester is a petroleum-derived product, a highly polluting resource, and requires a large amount of energy for its production. Recycled polyester, on the other hand, is made from recycled plastic bottles. We recover waste that would otherwise end up in landfills, which helps reduce the toxic emissions generated by incinerators and improve air quality. To learn more, check out our blog article on recycled polyester. You can also see all our eco-friendly products.
Management of unsold items
You can rest assured that our unsold or slightly defective products, as well as our samples, will be treated in accordance with our environmental and social values. We donate any unsold product to non-profit charities or to people in our community in need.
Created in Canada
LIX is first and foremost a Quebec brand. All our products are designed, imagined and created on our premises. Then, we choose to work with manufacturers who share our values and respect our quality standards. Our goal is to develop friendly relationships with all our manufacturers and suppliers, both locally and internationally - authentic and lasting partnerships based on mutual respect and integrity.
Fabrication
Since our very beginnings, we have wanted to minimize our environmental footprint. Although our collection is, for the moment, manufactured internationally, our desire to support local sourcing and local manufacturing remains a project in progress. We want to support and work with Canadian suppliers, textile mills and clothing manufacturers wherever possible. Obviously, not all of our products can be made in Canada. This is simply no longer possible given the structural, human and technological changes made to the Canadian clothing industry in recent years. However, we have set ourselves the objective of repatriating part of our production within the limits of our territory as soon as possible.
