Components
You only get out what you put in, so we insist on parts made with more sustainable materials and processes. In line with the SDGs created by the UN, we use innovative materials that help both performance and planet, such as post-consumer rubber cords, repurposed plastics, and recyclable ceramicized soleplates that offer even edge-toedge heating

Package
This box is for keeps. Made of the finest recycled materials, it features an original, reusable design. An exclusive, heat-resistant inner pad enables you to safely store your garment care tool even while it’s hot.
