Eco-Friendly Swimwear Manufacturing: Bali Summer’s Sustainable Waste Innovations
Eco-friendly swimwear manufacturing is no longer a niche—it’s becoming the standard for brands determined to leave a positive mark on our planet.
Hi beautiful souls, Building your swimwear brand isn’t just about gaining profit. It’s about sustainability and shaping a future we can all be proud of. At Bali Summer, eco-friendly swimwear manufacturing extends beyond creating quality products—it’s about every choice we make, including how we manage and repropose production and operational waste to minimize our environmental footprint. We remain committed to zero waste, ensuring that nothing goes unused if it can be given a second life.
Why Sustainability Matters in Swimwear Manufacturing
The fashion industry, including the swimwear sector, has long been criticized for its environmental impact. From synthetic fabrics to production off-cuts, the amount of waste generated is substantial. However, brands have a choice: they can either continue the cycle of garbage or become part of the solution.
For Bali Summer, sustainability isn’t a buzzword—it’s embedded in every step of our operations. As a manufacturer of eco-friendly swimwear, we prioritize innovative solutions that transforms waste into something meaningful.
Tri Hita Karana and Eco-Friendly Swimwear: A Harmonious Connection
Our commitment to eco-friendly swimwear manufacturing is deeply inspired by Bali’s local philosophy, Tri Hita Karana, which emphasizes harmony between humans, nature, and the divine. This holistic concept shapes how we approach sustainability, not merely as a business choice, but as a way of life. By caring for the environment, respecting our communities, and fostering spiritual balance, we ensure that every piece we produce carries not just style, but also meaning and respecting for the world around us. “This guiding philosophy has shaped Balinese culture for generations—explore Tri Hita Karana in this feature.”
Partnership with ACS Foundation: Turning Waste into Energy
Many factories treat waste as disposable. But in eco-friendly swimwear manufacturing, every piece of material matters. At Bali Summer, we’ve chosen to see potential where others see waste. That’s why we’ve partnered with the Amara Cinta Semesta (ACS) Foundation.
Together, we transform operational waste into alternative fuel briquettes (RDF), used in laundry boilers or cement kilns. Instead of sending scraps to the landfill, these materials become eco-fuel that communities can use for cooking and heating. This process involves burning waste using a specialized incinerator that operates at temperatures above 700 degrees Celsius, ensuring complete combustion without producing harmful smoke or air pollution, or zero emission. It’s a practical step toward sustainability that makes a tangible difference in the real world.
Domestic Waste Processing into Maggot Feed
Beyond handling operational waste, ACS also tackles domestic organic waste innovatively. Instead of ending up in landfills, organic household waste is used in maggot cultivation. These maggots are a natural and sustainable source of protein, which ACS then distributes to local farmers to be used as high-quality animal feed.
This approach not only reduces organic waste volume but also supports local agriculture and livestock industries by providing an affordable, eco-friendly alternative to the conventional animal feed. It’s another practical way sustainability can create benefits for both the environment and the community.
ACS believes in turning waste into energy, transforming what was once discarded into valuable fuel for industries and communities. Beyond this initiatives, ACS partners with various types of recycling factories to ensure that all materials find new life, supporting a truly circular economy.

Fabric Waste: Turning Scraps Into Beauty
Another crucial part of our eco-friendly swimwear manufacturing process is how we handle fabric off-cuts. In the fashion industry, these scraps are often discarded. But not here at Bali Summer. Rather than discard them, we reduce leftover fabrics into beautiful hair accessories such as scrunchies. This simple, thoughtful process reduces textile waste, creates unique, handcrafted products, and adds value to every piece of fabric used. Each recycled accessory carries a story—a reminder that sustainability can be creative and impactful.
In addition to creating scrunchies, we continuously explore new ways to repropose fabric waste into innovative products, ensuring that even the smallest scraps contribute to our zero-waste goals and strengthen the narrative of sustainable fashion. Our team is dedicated to find fresh designs and practical items that can be crafted from off-cuts, including small pouches, headbands, and other accessories that add charm and utility to everyday life. These efforts not only help minimize landfill waste but also create additional revenue streams for our company values and our partners, proving that sustainability and business success can go hand in hand. We believe that every piece of fabric deserves a second life, and that our customers appreciate products with a meaningful backstory, knowing that their choices support a more responsible and eco-friendly fashion industry.
Global Partnerships & Government Support for Sustainable Manufacturing
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond products. We focus on sourcing and offering eco-friendly fabrics. We partners with global suppliers that supplies ECONYL and REPREVE , well known as sustainable materials. These partnerships help us deliver high-performance fabrics that look beautiful and protect the planet.
We also benefit from the Indonesian government’s KITE tax-free license. This license lets us import raw materials without duties if we export the final goods such as swimwear, activewear, resortwear . It helps us offer competitive prices, speed up production, and keep high quality standards. We believe sustainable and ethical manufacturing is the future.
