Sustainable Fabric Collaboration

Oliver Harvey has teamed up with Tiajo to revolutionise the chefswear market by harnessing sustainable fabrics across their range, exclusively manufactured in the UK!

With our continuous efforts to become an eco-friendlier British chefswear manufacturer, from motion sensor lighting to transitioning to fully recycled packaging, we still wanted to thrive for more. As a result, we are proud to take our biggest sustainability step to date – moving to sustainable fabrics in collaboration with Tiajo, who supply us with these new materials.

Tiajo are a uniform and workwear fabric specialists, a certified company with 30 years of experience. They focus on solutions for professionals in various industries, offering a range of products including polyester-cotton blends and technical fabrics. Tiajo provide high-performance fabrics with advanced features like high-visibility, waterproof properties and flame retardant, designed to be durable, quality and comfortable.

 After research, testing and refinement, we have found environmentally friendly alternatives that meet our high standards for durability and quality. Most of our aprons and chefswear are now crafted from 100% organic cotton and a 65% recycled polyester / 35% organic cotton blend, with the same comfort and performance needed at no extra cost, keeping our customers at mind. Thanks to our partnership with Tiajo, over 70% of our garments are included in our sustainable range, including the majority of our chef jackets, trousers and aprons.

This team effort marks a new chapter, built on shared values, innovation, and care for our planet, we’re proud of the benchmark set for sustainable chefswear in the UK. This is only the beginning – we can’t wait to continue our contributions to a greener future.
