As the back to back winner of the 2025 and 2026 Global Organisation Sustainability Awards, we are leading the way with our responsible rashguards and swimwear, and our commitment to doing things differently and caring for the planet. From fabric to production, and even down to our packaging, every decision is an eco-conscious choice.
In 2026, the Awards committee recognised Big Vibes Day for "leading the way in sustainable rashguards and swimwear through ethical Australian manufacturing, premium recycled fabrics, exceptional durability, and a thoughtful low-waste approach. Benchmarking particularly strongly among synthetic swimwear brands globally, the brand was recognised for balancing high performance, longevity, and reduced environmental impact."
"We also appreciated the depth of consideration given to the issue of microplastic shedding. Your focus... demonstrates a more advanced and responsible approach than most synthetic swimwear brands currently on the market" - Award organisers.
♻️ Our rashguards are made from beautiful Italian fabric comprised of recycled fibres from post consumer materials - such as plastics and reclaimed fishing nets from the oceans.
✅ Our fabrics are durable and our garments are built to stay looking good for longer - reducing contribution to landfill. Our fabric is ultra resistant to fibre breakage, chlorine, sunscreen and oil. You'll be wearing our garments for seasons to come.
✅ We make in small batches, to reduce wastage, and our garments are made ethically and sustainably in Melbourne by our Ethical Clothing Australia accredited manufacturer, reducing our carbon footprint.
✅ We are committed to a happy planet, using recycled and recyclable packaging, and to supporting our local community.
🇦🇺 Our rashguards are 100% designed and made in Australia, and we are 100% Australian owned and funded.
Thank you for supporting our mission 💚
