Sustainability
At Now in Rio Swim, sustainability is a cause that we care deeply about. We believe in championing quality, timeless products made with care and concern for the environment, and that manufacturing responsibly is a true mark of modern luxury.
OUR ETHOS
Our commitment to ecologically-responsible production begins with our design process. Rather than trend-led styles, we hope to offer our customer well-made and wearable swimwear staples cut from the finest fabrics that will stand the test of time, leading to a naturally extended life-cycle for each and every product.
Our collections are manufactured in small quantities to try and eliminate waste caused by overproduction.
We work with predominantly European factories who share our commitments to quality products, environmental principles, and ethical working conditions.
Now in Rio believes that this type of expertise is not only a hallmark of luxury, but also a more human-centered approach that offers meaningful employment within Portuguese communities, a cause close to all of our hearts.
Our swimwear fabrics are sourced from within Europe, and is made from nylon waste, otherwise polluting the Earth, that is transformed into regenerated nylon. It's exactly the same as brand new nylon and can be recycled, recreated and remoulded again and again.
We also try to be as sustainable as possible in our packaging material from our stickers to our thank you cards, we prioritize sustainability.

We ship our swimwear in poly-based made from recycle plastics, they are also are biodegradable and compostable. This means that once finished with the packaging customers can put it in with their food scraps and garden waste. They will break down within months in a compost environment in a non-toxic process.
