Jewelry and sustainable development, a possible marriage?
Do you like fine jewelry and care about the environmental and social impact of your consumption? Then you've come to the right place! At Bijootree, we carefully select our partner brands, taking into account their CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) values.
Our commitment to ethical jewelry
The jewelry industry has long been opaque about the origin of the materials used. At Bijootree, we want to change things by focusing on transparency and ethics. This is why we collaborate exclusively with brands that use recycled and responsible precious metals.
Recycled gold and silver: An ecological and elegant alternative
When manufacturing jewelry, the use of recently mined precious metals can have a significant environmental impact. Mining can lead to deforestation, water and soil pollution, and human rights violations.
Recycled gold and silver offer a more sustainable solution. These metals are sourced from old jewelry, electronic waste, and other sources, and are refined to be reused in the creation of new, equally sparkling jewelry.
Certifications to guarantee responsible origin
To guarantee the ethical origin of their materials, our partner brands rely on various internationally recognized labels and certifications:
- RJC (Responsible Jewellery Council): The RJC is a non-profit organisation that sets strict standards for ethical, environmental and social practices throughout the jewellery supply chain [6]. RJC certification ensures that the gold and silver used meets strict criteria for human rights, labour, the environment and business ethics. https://www.responsiblejewellery.com/
- Kimberley Process : The Kimberley Process is an international initiative established to prevent the trade in conflict diamonds. A conflict diamond is a rough diamond mined in a war zone and sold to finance armed conflict. The Kimberley Process requires diamond-producing and diamond-importing countries to implement internal controls to prevent the trade in conflict diamonds. https://www.kimberleyprocess.com/en/what-kp
- Fairmined : Fairmined certification ensures that gold comes from artisanal and small-scale mines that respect the rights of workers, the environment and local communities. Fairmined gold is often extracted by hand using traditional methods, which has a lower environmental impact than industrial mining. https://fairmined.org/en/
