TING is a small company based in London that produces luxury products using sustainable and ethical principles. Its goal is to work towards sustainability without compromising style or quality. TING was established by Inghua Ting in 2000. Following her graduation from the Royal College of Art, Ting worked in Japan developing innovative, futuristic fabrics. However, working at the forefront of fabric technology led her to consider sustainability issues, and the challenge of designing and producing a desirable, luxury product from reclaimed materials. Inspired by old leather belts, vintage leather saddles, salvaged fabrics and end-of-line seat belts, Ting cleverly incorporates these materials into new designs to show them off to their best advantage. TING offsets its already small carbon footprint with the help of growaforest.com, and conducts every aspect of its business with an understanding of its social and ethical responsibility.
