Doing it the right way
We believe how something is made matters just as much as how it looks. From the people who make our pieces to the materials and packaging we choose, we’re always looking for ways to make Bathen more thoughtfully.
Thoughtful partnerships
Bathen works with skilled makers and production partners in India and Guatemala who share our commitment to thoughtful, responsible production.
The way our pieces are made varies by product and place. Some are created by artisans working from their homes, while others are produced in dedicated textile facilities. We value long-term relationships with our partners and work closely with them throughout the production process.
Through our partners, makers are paid fairly for their work and, in some communities, have access to programs supporting artisan development, education, and their families.
Time-honored production techniques
Many of our pieces are made using traditional weaving techniques shaped by the skills and traditions of the places where they are produced.
We value the craftsmanship behind these methods and the people who continue to practice them.
Evolving sustainability practices
We’re always looking for ways to reduce waste and make more thoughtful choices. We use minimal packaging whenever possible, including recyclable shipping materials and reusable 100% cotton bags for our robes.
We also produce in small batches, helping us avoid unnecessary overproduction and make more considered decisions about what we create.
