Algatite is a collection of sustainable fashion accessories for elegant women who enjoy a touch of play. Each piece brings together the natural and organic with the mechanical and technological.
Technology is central to our process. We embrace techniques that allow us to create scalably and sustainably using SLS and SLA printing. Our products and manufactured and assembled in the USA. Sustainability is also an important part of what we do. We use on-demand manufacturing techniques to minimize our environmental impact. For each product sold we partner with One Tree Planted to plant a tree, off-setting our carbon footprint.
We make small, continuous bets on styles and colors instead of placing giant orders once per season. This helps us eliminate waste produced by over-stocking and gives us the space to try new things.
