Meet Pilio
Pilio has been developing sustainability solutions for the fashion industry for over five years.
Spun out from University of Oxford in 2011, Pilio was founded to support businesses on energy, carbon and nature to meet the climate crisis. Pilio has supported hundreds of organisations, from Blenheim Palace to Lush Cosmetics, in meeting sustainability milestones.
Pilio Fashion
Recognising the scale of the fashion industry’s impact and the opportunity for this creative industry to create material and cultural change, Pilio has turned its focus to developing new solutions for fashion.
Pilio has focused much of its attention on natural fibres, with the belief that these existing supply systems can be transformed to create a truly sustainable fashion supply chain that prioritises the world’s most vulnerable farmers.
OUR PHILOSOPHY

We believe that the best solutions for fashion benefit both people and planet. That’s why our solutions aim to sit within the “windows of vitality” - the sweet spot where human social and economic needs are balanced with biodiversity and climate to ensure a thriving and sustainable ecosystem.
