Values
We focus on sustainability wherever possible at every given chance in our Company. Our suits are made from 78% recycled ocean waste and fish nets with 22% elastane to ensure durability.
FABRIC
Our suits are made from an eco-sustainable, luxury fabric made from 78% ECONYL® regenerated nylon from recycled fishnets and ocean waste, and 22% elastane. Durability is a major part of sustainability, which is why we use the same durable material for the suit and the lining. Not only are our suits resistant to chlorine and sun creams/oils compared to other recycled fabrics, but they also provide a UV protection of 50.
Being focused on an eco-friendly practice, we do not use any heat-transferring or added plastic wording on our suits. Cenzano Swim, brings an embroidered label to add quality, high-performance ability, and comfort for all women.
PRODUCTION
Production is held in Kerobokan, Bali, Indonesia and is handmade by a female-owned manufacturer. Our manufacturing company runs on a completely solar-powered system, converting sunlight into DC electricity, producing less pollution.
Our suits are individually packed and handled by our team before shipment. Tags are made from 100% seed paper and can be planted for new life. Hygiene liners are made from recycled Kraft paper and shipping packages are compostable, ensuring every product can have a new life. Furthermore, Cenzano Swim offers reusable, recycled canvas tote bags as packaging for our suits; every tag is attached with recycled fabric.
Our manufacturing company also automatically donates proceeds to grassroots organizations to support the environment and women’s access to education.
We exceed minimum labor standards in our business, production, and sourcing practices. All staff are paid above-average wages and get to negotiate their contracts and salaries. Everyone is provided with comprehensive health insurance.

IMPACT
Overall reduction of greenhouse emissions, fossil fuel, and water consumption is vital for a healthier planet. Using solar power and low production demand ensures we stay true to the reduction. Recycling plastics into material saves waste pollution and reduces the amount of plastic chips getting into our ocean and destroying marine life. We must begin to focus on quality over quantity to ensure nature's survival.

CARE
Hand-washing with cold water or machine washing on gentle with mild detergent can help reduce the shedding of microplastics and will also make vibrant colors last longer. We recommend avoiding fabric softener or bleach and air drying the garment in the shade. Avoid ringing and crunching the garment. Do not iron or dry-clean.
For stain removal, we recommend spot cleaning with mild detergent and cold water before washing.
