SUSTAINABILITY
OUR COMMITMENT
At The Finds, we are committed to making high-quality, long-lasting pieces but also making a positive impact on the environment and supporting responsible practices in the jewelry industry. We strive to provide our customers with jewelry that embodies both durability and sustainability, offering a meaningful and responsible choice for those seeking exceptional beauty without compromising their values.

While we acknowledge that sustainability is an ongoing journey, we strive to be a leader in the Dutch jewelry industry by implementing responsible practices every step of the way.
DURABILITY & LONGEVITY
In the Netherlands, it’s difficult to know what you’re buying when it comes to gold-plated jewelry, as there are no clear regulations. With many brands, the gold layer wears off quickly, which is a shame – nothing is more disappointing than a piece of jewelry that loses its color and can no longer be worn.

At The Finds, we do things differently. We use a gold layer of at least 3 microns – five times thicker than many other brands. This means our jewelry retains its beautiful shine and color and is built to withstand daily wear. You can trust that your piece will not only look stunning when you first wear it but will continue to do so for a long time to come.

RESPONSIBLE MATERIALS
We carefully select our materials, both for our jewelry and packaging, to meet our strict standards for quality and sustainability. Wherever possible, we prioritize recycled metals.

Our main production partner uses 100% recycled gold. This means the gold we use comes from previously refined and processed materials. By choosing recycled gold, we reduce the need for new gold mining, which has significant environmental and social impacts.
For the stones in our rings, we prefer to work with synthetic cubic zirconia. This stone has a lower environmental impact compared to mining natural gemstones. Additionally, cubic zirconia is harder and more durable than most semi-precious stones and less prone to damage, making it a solid choice.

Our packaging is both recyclable and reusable:
  • Our shipping box is made from 100% recyclable material and is fully recyclable.
  • The Finds jewelry box is 100% recyclable and reusable.
  • All paper is FSC-certified.
  • The pouches are reusable and designed to keep your jewelry safely stored.
RESPONSIBLY MANUFACTURED
We take great care in selecting the factories we partner with, ensuring they share our commitment to fair labor practices and safe working conditions. Our main factories are certified members of the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), meaning that they adhere to and promote fair and equal human and labour rights, working to transform jewellery supply chains to be more responsible and sustainable.
OUR ROADMAP
While we acknowledge that our sustainability efforts are not yet perfect, we remain committed to continuous improvement. We closely follow the latest research and best practices and actively seek new ways to strengthen our sustainability initiatives.

By choosing The Finds, you support a company that values both style and sustainability. We believe that by setting a positive example within the jewelry industry, we can inspire others to join us in taking this important step towards a more sustainable future.


Our Next Steps:

  • Use 100% recycled gold in all our factories
  • Work towards using 100% recycled brass as a base material
  • Gain insight into how our suppliers measure their CO₂ footprint and which sustainable energy sources they use – such as air quality, solar panels, and water recycling
  • One of our factories is in the process of obtaining ISO 14001 certification (an environmental management certification)

Our ultimate goal is to achieve full traceability of all materials across our entire supply chain.
