Packaging is a big and inevitable part of the textile industry. At Underprotection we do what we can to minimize our use of packaging and reuse as much as possible, e.g. by reusing the boxes we receive our products in from our suppliers, to send orders out to our stores and customers. The product itself always comes in a bag from the supplier, this is necessary for us to ensure that our products are not damaged during transport. The bag that protects each product is either made of biodegradable material or recycled plastic. When you receive an order from us, it will always be packed in shipping bags made of either biodegradable material or recycled plastic. We also only use wrapping and paper from recycled materials. To ensure optimal sustainable effect, all packaging must be disposed of correctly. On each bag used to protect our products it is stated whether they are made of biodegradable material or whether they are made of recycled plastic. If you live in place that sorts bio-waste, then our biodegradable bags must be sorted in this. If the bag is made of recycled plastic, it must be sorted as plastic for recycling.

Our gift boxes and bags are made with the FSC certification that ensures products like paper and carton have been sourced in an environmentally-friendly, socially responsible and economically viable manner.
POSTAL BAGS

Our postal bags and pockets are made from recycled plastics that both have the Global Recycle Standard (GRS) certification.
POLY BAGS
Our polybags are used to secure all products from water damage during shipping from the factory to the shops. The polybags we use are made in biodegradable plastics or recycled plastic. This way, we ensure that the waste from our shipping have the lowest impact on the environment, as possible.
BRA MEASUREMENT
To find the most accurate size you have to do two measurements, A: bust and B: band. Do the measurements on your bare skin. Start off by measuring all the way around your bust where it’s widest. Then measure all the way around just under your bust. We have plus sizes for mostly all of our bra’s to make sure that bigger busts can fit our bras. When a size is plus size the underband stays the same and the size of the cup will go a size up; for example a size S+ has an underband that fits a regular size S and the cup size fits a regular size M. Be aware that it’s meant for you to start out using the outer buckle of the hook and eye closure first. Then you can adjust and tighten when the underband elastic gets looser.

BOTTOM MEASUREMENT
To find your most accurate size you have to do two measurements, A: waist and B: hip. Do the measurements on your bare skin. Start off by measuring all the way around your waist where it’s narrowest. Then measure all the way round your hip where it's widest.
Wanna know the tricks for measuring? Always measure on bare skin and not over clothing. This will give you the best and most accurate result. When we are talking measurements we mean the measures you have and not the lingerie, swimwear or loungewear. Always measure yourself and then use the results to find the perfect size in the wanted style.
