At Black Lab Brands, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As pet parents ourselves, we understand the importance of making thoughtful choices for our pets, and for the planet. We have made it our mission to provide eco-friendly, long-lasting pet products that support not just your pup’s health and comfort, but the world they explore. From our durable fabrics to our innovative design process, we’re committed to creating products that are as sustainable as they are functional.

Certified Tough Fabrics

We take great pride in using high-quality, certified materials for every pet product we make. Our tough fabrics are carefully selected for their performance and eco-friendly credentials. We use fabrics that are Oeko-Tex® certified, ensuring that they are free from harmful chemicals. Additionally, many of our products feature fabrics with the Global Recycle Standard (GRS) certification, making sure they meet the highest global standards for recycled content.

The durability of our fabrics means fewer replacements, which also means less waste. We believe that a product built to last is the most sustainable product. By choosing to invest in pet essentials that stand the test of time, you’re reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimizing overall environmental impact.

Recycled Fiber Fill

We are committed to reducing waste through our use of recycled fiber fill in all of our fiber filled beds and crate pads. By recycled materials from products that would otherwise end up in landfills, we help reduce the need for new raw materials, conserving natural resources and minimizing waste. Our recycled fill offers all the support and comfort your dog needs, without compromising on durability.

StayFresh™ Technology: Cleaner Beds, Fewer Washes

Maintaining hygiene is important, but we recognize that frequent washing contributes to water waste and fabric wear. That's why we’ve added StayFresh™ Technology to our beds and accessories. StayFresh™ is an all-natural, antibacterial technology that helps keep your dog’s bed cleaner for longer by combating odors and bacteria. This means less frequent washing, helping to conserve water, reduce energy consumption, and prolong the life of your pet’s bedding.

Our StayFresh™ technology is not only eco-friendly but also extends the lifespan of our products, making them more sustainable and economical for pet parents.

C0 DWR: Durability Meets Eco-Consciousness

In addition to StayFresh™, we utilize C0 DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish on some of our fabrics. Unlike traditional DWR finishes that are often made with harmful fluorinated chemicals, C0 DWR uses non-toxic, biodegradable, and plant-based ingredients. This helps to keep water out without introducing harmful chemicals into the environment, providing you with a safer, eco-friendly option.

Our C0 finish is ideal for pet products because it enhances the water-resistance of our fabrics, making them more durable in outdoor environments while being less toxic to both the environment and your pet. C0 DWR means better protection for your dog's bed, while reducing your environmental footprint.

SpinDye® Recycled Webbing: Less Water, Less Dye Waste

Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond the fabrics we use for the beds themselves. For our leashes, collars, and harnesses, we choose SpinDye® recycled webbing. This technology uses 90% less water and 75% less dye compared to traditional dyeing methods. By reducing water consumption and dyeing waste, SpinDye® represents a significant leap toward a more sustainable textile industry.

Not only does this process save water and reduce waste, but it also results in colors that are more vibrant and long-lasting, ensuring that our pet accessories look great and hold up to the rigors of daily life.

Long-Lasting = Sustainable

Sustainability is not just about the materials we use—it’s about how long our products last. A product built to last means fewer resources spent on replacements and less waste generated in the long run. At Black Lab, we believe that durability equals sustainability. Our beds, leashes, and accessories are built with performance and longevity in mind. By designing products that stand up to the wear and tear of everyday life, we help minimize your need to replace them frequently, leading to less overall environmental impact.
