Our PRINTS
All our beautiful ORIA SWIM printed pieces are made from a soft recycled lycra (Polymide /Elastane). Our Lycra is made 100% from recycled materials, such as fishing nets, that would otherwise pollute out earth and ocean.
Our printed fabrics are certified by the ICEA GLOBAL RECYCLED STANDARD, OXEO TEX® STANDARD 100 and ICEA GLOBAL ORGANIC TEXTILE STANDARD. We work closely with our fabric suppliers to guarantee chemicals and processes used during printing are sustainable and conscious action is taken to reduce waste.

our plains
Our ORIA SWIM signatures are made in a luxurious crepe like textured fabric made from ECONYL® Regenerated Nylon. ECONYL® Regenerated nylon is made from nylon waste otherwise polluting the
earth, like fishing nets, fabric scraps, carpet flooring &
industrial plastic.
DESIgN & MANUFACTURING
All Oria Swim pieces are designed and developed in Italy, our swimwear is ethically produced in Portugal, while our resort wear is made in our studio in Italy. We custom design each of our beautiful prints, patternmake each style, sample and fit every design insuring the highest quality finished items.
Producing small quantities allows us to control and minimise waste and any excess fabric is always used for sampling and designing new collections and styles. We promise all materials used in your swimsuit are of the highest quality and our manufacturing methods allow us to
produce ethically and sustainably.
PACkaging
Our sustianable methods and eco-conscious thinking doesn't end at our products. All packaging is recyclable or compostable and made from recycled or eco-friendly materials.
Our mailers are 100% compostable and made from a combination of bio based polymers and plant material such as corn and wheat starch. The mailer will degrade in 6 months in your home compost and leave no harmful residues behind.
helping our Planet
When you buy an Oria Swim piece you are supporting our mission for a greener future. By choosing a swimsuit made from recycled/ regenerated nylon instead of one made from new fabric, you are helping to clean our oceans & planet, reduce landfill and re-cycle nylon. The fibers in recycled fabrics are regenerated to the same quality as new and are produced without the use of non renewable petroleum oil.
Help us protect our oceans and planet and choose Oria Swim for your next swimsuit.
