Seljak Brand hosted a panel discussion at Sustainable Living Festival with Suitcase Rummage

Seljak Brand exemplifies closed-loop systems and design through recycled blankets. As well as producing products, we engage individuals and organisations in conversations at talks, workshops and events about how we can better make and use things to reduce our impact on the environment and achieve sustainability outcomes. Sam and Karina Seljak also consult other businesses on how to embed circularity into their own operations.

We align our work to the Sustainable Development Goal #12: Responsible Production and Consumption and #13 Climate Action.
