Sustainability at Altaire Homes
Thoughtful Living, Honest Craftsmanship, Responsible Comfort
At Altaire Homes, sustainability is more than just a concept—it is our design philosophy. We believe that every element of your home should reflect your values. That the textiles you touch every day—your bedsheets, your dohars, your quilts, your cushion covers—should be as gentle on the Earth as they are on your skin.
Our commitment to sustainability runs deep—from the way our fabrics are sourced and dyed to how our products are packaged and delivered. We’re proud to create slow-made bedding that supports artisan communities, minimises environmental impact, and prioritises long-term durability over fast, disposable trends.
The Altaire Approach to Sustainability
1. 100% Organic Cotton – Softer on You, Kinder to the Earth
We use certified organic cotton in every product—from our airy mulmul dohars to our crisp cotton bedsheets and soft cushion covers.
Unlike conventional cotton, which is water-intensive and dependent on harmful pesticides, organic cotton is grown without synthetic chemicals and uses 91% less water. It's safer for farmers, healthier for the land, and significantly more sustainable in the long run.
Organic cotton also feels different. It’s naturally breathable, hypoallergenic, and long-lasting—perfect for all-season comfort, whether under a quilt, bed cover, or simply lounging with our cushion covers.
2. Non-Toxic, Plant-Based Dyes – Colour with a Conscience
Every Altaire product is handprinted using azo-free or plant-based dyes. Our block-printed bedsheets, dohars, and quilts are free from heavy metals and synthetic toxins, making them safer for your home and better for the environment.
This low-impact dyeing process also reduces water pollution and preserves the integrity of the artisanal craft. Unlike mass-produced bedding, our colours are alive, layered, and slightly imperfect—because they’re done by hand, not by machine.
3. Artisan-Made, Not Mass-Produced
We proudly support heritage craftsmanship. Every Altaire product is made by skilled artisans in Jaipur who specialise in block printing, quilting, and hand-finishing.
-Our handblock printed bedsheets are stamped one block at a time, reflecting hours of detailed work.
-Our quilts are stitched by hand with pure cotton filling—no polyfill, no machine shortcuts.
-Our bed covers and cushion covers are finished in small batches, ensuring attention to detail and reduced wastage.
This slow, intentional process drastically reduces energy consumption compared to industrial manufacturing while also providing fair wages and preserving cultural heritage.
4. Low-Impact Production & Packaging
-We produce in limited batches, minimising overproduction and excess inventory.
-All products are shipped in recyclable poly mailer bags—free from plastic coatings, bubble wrap, or unnecessary inserts.
-Our supply chain is consciously kept short, with raw materials sourced and products crafted locally in India, reducing transit-related emissions.
Every detail—from raw material to doorstep—is designed to reduce our carbon footprint while maintaining the highest quality standards.
5. Built to Last – Better Than Fast Fashion for Your Home
Mass-produced bedding is often designed to be replaced. Ours isn’t. At Altaire, we create heirloom-quality textiles—whether it’s a reversible quilt, a classic Jaipuri dohar, or a cotton bedsheet set that gets softer with each wash.
By choosing timeless designs and durable materials, we ensure you buy less, but better. Our pieces are meant to be lived in, loved, passed down—and never discarded after a season.
