More than 150 million trees are logged each year to turn into cellulosic fabric which is why we only use sustainably sourced wood pulp with maximum supply chain transparency. Our viscose is certified by EU Ecolabel, which certifies its sustainability and lower environmental impact from raw-materials sourcing to production and distribution.

Recycled polyester
Recycled polyester is generally made by breaking down used plastic by melting it and spinning it into polyester yarn.
The benefits of recycled polyester are huge. It reduces our reliance on virgin petroleum as a raw material, as well as reducing CO2 emissions and minimizing the use of water and energy compared to regular polyester - It uses 59% less energy and reduces CO2 emissions by 32% compared to regular polyester production.
Interesting fact: Recycled polyester can be recycled over and over again without losing its quality.

Our Packaging
Our boxes are made of 100% recycled FSC certified cardboard. Interesting fact: recycled cardboard generates about 37% less CO2 to manufacture than virgin cardboard, it doesn’t require any trees to be felled and produces 49% less wastewater in the process!
The FSC or Forest Stewardship Council certifies that the cardboard is sourced from a forest and supply chain that is managed responsibly and sustainably.
Our boxes are made to be as durable as possible to encourage recycling and reusing. So be creative!

Giving Back
Animal shelter program
OVER RULE was founded with the ultimate goal to create a positive impact on you and the planet.
Through you we want to ensure that we are making a difference with every design sold.
As a sustainable brand it is part of our promise to leave a valuable mark by using this project to have real impact.
DID YOU KNOW that in Portugal alone on average 30,000 animals are abandoned per year?
Dog rescuing has always been a close cause to our founder, so it was just natural to use OVER RULE's giving back movement towards local Animal shelters and our in-house rescue program.
