Hebe Collection

Recycled ,ethical, sustainable, low-impact, conscious and compostable.

We are continuing our journey to produce conscious fashion, valuing sustainability and protection of the planet. From the inception of the idea of ACAO we were inclined towards creating a sustainable and ethical community.

"Good for you and the planet"

 As a company, we have a responsibility to do what we can in order to protect our planet and the people living on it. At ACAO we set our standards high to only work with suppliers that align with our values. We strive to be 100% accountable for our sustainable measures. Starting with creation and production, to how it is packaged and received all around the world. Sustainability has become a tool for design innovation and has encouraged the process of clothing to be more than simply beautiful. We want you to feel empowered when you choose to purchase ACAO and know that it is both socially and environmentally conscious.

Our Conscious Journey started with our very first collection HEBE. All the fabrics, yarns, dyes used are consciously chosen keeping you and the planet in mind. 

Here is an overview of our conscious journey and how we have partnered up with conscious brand all around the world.
