overview
Flattering to your wrist, healthy for the environment, the vivid Sprout Womens Black Watch is a thoughtfully composed timepiece. Made from biodegradable corn resin, the adjustable black bracelet comes with a butterfly deployment clasp. The large round stationary bezel houses a unique leopard print, mother-of-pearl analog dial with diamond markers at each hour index. A luminous three-hand configuration provides added convenience to the mineral enclosed dial. Versatile in application and relying on Japanese quartz movement, the Sprout is a trendy yet responsible expression of eco-conscious concern.
Compliance All Sprout watches are in compliance with the CPSIA and are lead and phthalate free. The corn resin we use is in full compliance with the American ASTM D6400 as well as the European EN13432 standards for compostable material. Materials Corn Resin The shelf life of corn resin is similar to synthetic plastics. It will not break down during regular wear and use. In a composite environment, corn resin is 99% biodegradable in carbon dioxide and water within 365 days. This means that if you place your watch in the garden, it will biodegrade. Since its made from corn, it comes from a renewable resource. Conventional plastics use an estimated 200,000 barrels of oil a day in the United States alone but because corn resin is bio-based, it therefore uses no oil resources in production. Organic Cotton The majority of cotton is grown with toxic chemicals. Conventional cotton requires the use of enormous amounts of pesticides - 25% of all insecticides and 10% of all pesticides - which have a huge environmental impact. It is one of the most environmentally damaging crops to grow, as about 84 million pounds of pesticides are sprayed on US cotton crops alone in one year. Some of these chemicals are considered to be the most toxic chemicals in the world. Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment and is grown without the use of toxic pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. Bamboo Bamboo is considered based on its properties as 1) a natural (nonsynthetic) fiber, 2) a quick-growth plant (its in the grass family) that sequesters greenhouse gases, and 3) a renewable plant that can grow back after its three to five year harvesting period. It largely doesnt need chemicals, pesticides, or fertilizers to grow. Mineral Crystal Most lenses in the medium price range of watches are made from plexiglass, a type of synthetic plastic. Sprout lenses are made from Mineral crystal which is a type of glass made from sand. It can technically be recycled. Mercury Free Battery Mercury is actually a neurotoxin, which is harmful to both animals and humans. Exposure to even small amounts of mercury over a long period may cause negative health effects including damage to the brain, kidney, lungs and a developing baby. Sprout watches use only Mercury Free batteries. Recycled Fibers Sprout packaging is made from at least 80% post-consumer fibers. It is both recycled and recyclable. Enclosed in each box is a grass seed card. Follow the instructions and grow a mini grass garden, right on your desk.
