Cotton On BODY - Sustainable Window Displays

Committed to making a positive impact, Cotton ON Body launched a puffer jacket collection produced from fully recycled materials and challenged Dashing to create a completely environmentally friendly window display to hero the product.

With the consciousness in mind, they briefed us to create a sustainable campaign, where every element that composed the window was helping to preserve our planet. We produced a double-sided custom printed backdrop made from PET fabric with wool recycled poly wadding infill, and a banner made of recycled paper. To showcase the puffer jackets, we collaborated with Mannequino, bringing this 100% fully recyclable mannequin to the Australian market, designed for disassembly, and ready for the circular economy.

The Mannequino uses 80-98% less material than the conventional display forms. Its produced from Polypropylene which is widely recycled and there is an extensive network to collect and reuse it. Dashing has exclusively partnered with Mannequino to bring a truly sustainable visual merchandising solution to the Australian market. It has a unique type of body form, with a design-led aesthetic, and is purpose-built for easy low carbon footprint international use, as they are flat packed and easily and cost-effectively transported.

What our clients say

Troy and the Dashing team are the perfect match for Luxottica. With our ever-changing Campaigns and fast paced environment, the team are always on hand and ready. Dashing for me has been the biggest support system and strength to our business. I recommend them to any retailer looking for small- or large-scale print, project management, design work and account management. The possibilities are always endless with Dashing

We’ve worked with Dashing on a number of projects. They’ve really taken the time to understand the complexity of our retail footprint and needs as a business. They have an attentive approach and we’ve leaned on their skill on all angles from creative development, production, and bump in. Dashing never cease to amaze me, diving headfirst into bringing innovative ideas to the table and turning them into award winning in-store activations.

Great team, personable service. No job is too big or too small, and is always delivered on time and to your brief. It's hard to find suppliers that really care and give everything 110% but these guys do. If they get it wrong, they will do what it takes to get it right, one of my preferred suppliers within Australia

Dashing Towards a Sustainable Future

Sustainability

We recognise our operations have the potential to have both a positive and negative environmental, social and economic impact, we aim to minimise our negative impact in all three of these areas.

We partnered with Greenfleet to offset our carbon emissions through their native reforestation program and have implemented a few changes in our production facility, moving towards a sustainable future.

Our shredder machine can recycle cardboard sheets to use as packaging fillers when sending parcels to clients, allowing us to save on costs and improve our green offering. This approach can curb the creation of waste and minimise our carbon footprint.

Paper is collected daily and turned into bales, which are graded for quality before being sent to recycling mills. Companies buy quality waste paper collected locally then sort and clean it on-site, re-manufacturing it into products such as toilet paper, tissues, and hand towels. Every tonne of recycled paper used saves 13 trees! We also have a general waste compactor in our Head Office in Sydney, allowing us to compress the waste and space out the daily collections, reducing the amount of CO2 created. We were proud to receive the ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications, and are always looking for ways to improve our operations.

Dashing Inspires – Creativity Through Sustainability

Creativity through Sustainability

Progressing with our Dashing Inspires, a series of exclusive networking events in Sydney and Melbourne, we partnered with Country Road to discuss Creativity through Sustainability in Retail Environments.

The event was headlined by a panel discussion around the topic, with some of Australia’s most iconic brands contributing to the debate alongside our speakers Alicia Buffinton, Fabia Pryor, and Jason Tyrrell from Country Road, and our moderator, Daniel Hunt from Dashing.

As Country Road Group is a reference in sustainability, we explored their stores’ design, green concepts, and the challenges faced to obtain their 5-star Green Star Rating status.

We brought the event to life with our expertise in industrial design and large format execution. Aligned with the theme, we produced a welcome sign, a backdrop wall, and round tables all made of re-board, 100% recyclable. We distributed recycled cotton tote bags with reusable water bottles, sustainable notepads, our sustainability infographic, and a look book with some green case studies to inspire our guests, also printed on eco-friendly stocks.

It was amazing to have key people in the retail industry engaged in a conversation about change and innovation. We need to keep questioning ourselves: how can we minimise our impact and promote sustainability?
