Sustainability and our impact on the planet

Learn more about what we do to help minimize our ecological footprint and our efforts to serve our planet, people and pets.

Making a difference for pets worldwide, while minimizing our ecological footprint

Medical Pet Shirts is all about care, for animals, for people and for our planet. Every day, we are committed to helping as many pets as possible worldwide to a stress-free, comfortable recovery. Because the more animals we can support with our animal-friendly alternatives to the collar, the better.

But that growth should never be at the expense of the world we live in. That is why we are continuously working to reduce our ecological footprint. We consciously choose reusable products made of breathable, safe materials, free of harmful substances. We produce with attention to fair and safe working conditions.

In this way, we are building a future in which recovery and care for the planet go hand in hand (or paw in hand)!

Thoughtfully made, high-quality materials

We design our recovery products using high-quality, breathable materials that are animal-friendly, sustainable, and free from toxic substances and lead.

While our products aren’t indestructible (it is not Kevlar), we perform strict quality checks and continuously improve our materials and production processes. Safe for pets, kind to people, and conscious of our planet — always.

Fairly and safely produced

Our products are handmade in our own factories in India, where we build long-term partnerships based on fairness and care. We do not condone unsafe or exploitative working conditions, long hours, or child labor.

Together with our factory teams, we continuously work to improve the workspace — ensuring safe, clean environments, fair wages, and responsible production methods free from harmful chemicals.

By valuing the people behind our products, we create recovery wear made with respect, integrity, and compassion.

100% Solar energy

Since 2017, our own warehouse in the Netherlands has been running entirely on solar energy. This reduces the energy demand of the building.

Packaging made responsibly

We use sustainable and biodegradable packaging for all our products, so that we minimize the impact on the environment. Our packaging carries the Vinçotte quality mark, which means that it has been tested and certified for compostability. In doing so, we consciously choose an environmentally friendly solution that is safe for people, animals and the planet.

Shipped sustainably

Our products travel the world to help as many pets as possible and we do so as sustainably as possible. That's why we're part of the UPS Carbon Neutral program, which actively offsets the carbon emissions of our shipments. From our warehouse in the Netherlands, which runs on 100% solar energy, we ensure that every order is packaged and shipped with care and with an eye for the planet.

For the next generation of pets and people

We know that sustainable choices are never finished. That's why we continue to learn, develop and improve. All of it is done with one goal: to contribute to a future in which pet welfare and sustainability go hand in hand. Curious how we do it? Sign up for our newsletter below.
