PRODUCTION
Sustainable choices are at the core of our values. Water conservation is a key focus, particularly in arid Portugal. Advanced H2O recycling systems are employed to reuse and save this precious resource throughout the manufacturing process.
RECYCLING
Through innovative recycling methods, including efficient recycling loops and wastewater treatment, we aim for a zero-waste production process. Unused raw materials, ceramic shards, and other by-products are reused to minimize environmental impact. For our packaging, we are committed to finding increasingly sustainable alternatives, completely avoiding plastic and focusing on recycled paper and cardboard.
LOCAL SOURCING
Raw materials such as silicon dioxide, sand, kaolin, and alumina are sourced locally, reducing transportation emissions and supporting the local economy. Fair, safe, and inclusive working conditions: We ensure fair wages and safe working environments. Our manufacturer is also committed to creating a positive and balanced work environment.
EDUCATION AND OPPORTUNITIES
Through various initiatives, the education and skill development of artisans are promoted. Our manufacturers' commitment to equality, non-discrimination, and social inclusion is a key part of our ethos.
COMMUNITY AND ENVIRONMENT
By promoting and supporting environmentally friendly practices, we foster a culture of sustainability both within our team and beyond our production facilities. Each piece of Izanami dinnerware is a unique work of art. Polished, refined, glazed, and hand-painted by skilled artisans, our products reflect the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of Portuguese ceramics. The personal touch of our artisans imparts an unmatched warmth and distinct character to each piece. Choosing Izanami means choosing more than just dinnerware; it means embracing a philosophy of beauty, responsibility, and respect—for the environment, for your community, and for the loving act of preparing and sharing a meal.
