Responsibility

Happy Finnish fashion!

Aleksiina Design is a brand focused on Finnish fashion founded in 2017 by Tampere-based designer Pauliina Pajunen.

All products are made in Finland. The clothes are made in our own sewing shop in Jyväskylä and the jewelry in our own studio in Tampere.

Aleksiina Design's production is guided by ecological and ethical values, without forgetting the importance of Finnish craftsmanship.

 

Aleksiina Design's responsibility:

Responsibility in a nutshell: environmentally friendly practices, investing in employee well-being, openness in communication, and participation in community development.

 

MANUFACTURING

Aleksiina Design's products are manufactured locally in its own production facilities in Jyväskylä and Tampere.

 

WORKFORCE

Our employees are trained adult professionals.

 

OPERATIONAL CONTROL

Ecological and ethical operations strongly guide product design and manufacturing.

 

RAW MATERIALS

The raw materials used for textile products are mainly fabrics made from natural fibers and, whenever possible, always organic.

 

JEWELRY MATERIALS

In our jewelry, we mainly use birch and oak plywood made in Finland. Other types of wood for jewelry also come from Finnish manufacturers, and Mahogany Oy's wood origin and supply chain have been granted a PEFC certificate. Acrylics come from England. The jewelry paints are water-soluble and non-toxic. The metal parts are silver-plated jewelry metal or surgical steel.

 

PRODUCT MAINTENANCE

The washing instructions for the products can be found in the product information in the online store. Textile products have care instructions as a separate label sewn into the product.

 

PRODUCT WARRANTY

Aleksiina Design products are manufactured to a high standard and inspected before they are delivered to the customer, but mistakes do happen and we will correct the situation as required within a reasonable time after the product is put into use.

 

PACKAGING

Textile products are not packaged in plastic at any stage of production or delivery. We use materials made of paper and cardboard for shipping. Used shipping packaging can be returned to our store for reuse.

 

WASTE

Waste is sorted appropriately and the amount of mixed waste is actively reduced.

 

REPAIR OF USED PRODUCT

We repair used Aleksiina Design products if it is cost-effective.

 

USED ​​PRODUCT RESALE

You can bring a used, intact and clean Aleksiina Design product to our store for resale. You decide the price yourself and we take 30% of the product's sale. You will receive the rest of the money in the form of a gift card and you can use it on Riiminka and Aleksiina Design products in our stores or online store.

 

DISPOSAL OF USED PRODUCTS

All Riiminka and Aleksiina Design textiles can be returned to RIIMINKA & Aleksiina Design stores at the end of their useful life. We are still waiting for a suitable delivery location or use for this waste. Any suggestions?

 

TRANSPORTATION

Transportation is mainly handled by Posti's carbon-neutral services. We will compensate for other deliveries in the future.
