Biodegradable.
Plant based materials help reduce long term impact synthetic materials have on the environment. By average 92%+ is biodegradable, we aim to remove the 8% before 2024.

Reclaimed Cotton.
We utilise reclaimed cotton across the whole range - outer canvas 40 percent, inside is over 90 percent non virgin fibres from multiple sources.
Sustainable?
…is not our favourite word.
Happy, not perfect.
We make mistakes and we get things wrong, sometimes the solution just isn’t available… But we work daily to improve, learn and adapt at every opportunity. Ultimately our goal has never wavered, we work tirelessly to ensure everyone, in any capacity, who touches a C+S product is happy.
Taking it for granted.
When we formed C+S it was taken for granted that we’d work with people we like. Near or far, there was never a time the person we’re dealing with was not the priority
This natural way of working helped form the backbone of the business. A sustainable and ethical business follows when the focus is on the people. As C+S grows these principles will help develop a business that gives more than it takes, physically, environmentally and socially.
Colour.
Colour.
Everything starts with colour.
In 2014 we decided it was a great idea to try to make non-traditional, coloured waxed canvas… Years of experimentation later, we cracked it with our own secret formula, enabling us to make any colour Cora + Spink waxed cotton canvas you see today.
But what colour?
Each year inspiration is drawn from from the things we see around us – art, our travels, and even the spice rack to help us build ranges of colours that excite and engage us.
It’s then over to our colour expert in Delhi sets to work mixing raw pigments to make shades come alive. Being a “by eye” process makes every batch new, interesting, and always exciting.
The canvas process (in brief).
Raw unbleached canvas is washed, shrunk, and hand coloured, then our unique C+S process is applied before a final treatment for water repellence.
