What Grounds Us

At Rust, we believe beautiful things should be made with care, for people and for the planet. Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. We carefully source products that are made to last and crafted by makers who share our values around ethical production and thoughtful design.

Whenever possible, we choose natural, low-impact materials that are gentle on both our homes and the environment. We believe in tracing the story behind each piece - where it comes from, how it was made, and who made it - and we’re committed to ensuring those stories are rooted in responsibility and respect.

The majority of our homeware is made from stoneware or ceramic - timeless materials that are non-toxic and safe to use in everyday spaces. All of our tableware is food safe and created with both function and form in mind, so you can bring beauty to the table without compromise.

We apply that same care to how your order arrives. Our packaging includes loose fill that is 100% biodegradable and compostable, and eco-friendly honeycomb cushioning instead of plastic bubble wrap. Our outer packaging contains between 60% and 90% recycled content and our own Rust A3 prints are made using FSC® Recycled certified fibre from 100% pre and post consumer waste, finished with a natural clay coating.

We see this as a continuous journey. One shaped by curiosity, care, and a commitment to doing things differently. Rust is built on quiet intention, conscious choices, and a belief that beauty should be thoughtful - never at the expense of the people or the planet it touches.
