Cuitu is a Finnish fashion brand that makes modern accessories and bags for real urban nomads.

Fair production: Cuitu bags are fair produced in Turku, Finland. Cuitu's workshop and studio are under the same roof, which ensures that the working conditions can be closely monitored.

Environmentally friendly: The main material that Cuitu uses for the bags is surplus from dry suit production in Finland: a waterproof rubber material. Because no extra special glue is used, the bag is not completely waterproof, but it is splash-proof. The zippers and straps come from Italy, where they are produced fairly under pleasant conditions. The buckles come from a Finnish wholesaler, who gets the buckles from Sweden and Italy. The inner labels are made of organic cotton and are made in Finland. These Finnish manufacturers have more than 70 years of experience in sustainable label printing. The buckles, labels and straps are all sustainably certified, the cotton is GOTS certified organic, the recycled materials are GRS and OEKOTEX certified.

Cuitu follows a zero waste policy and aims to make sustainable bags of high quality.

Good cause: Cuitu likes to support small, local entrepreneurs and encourages young people in schools and through local start-up projects to consider entrepreneurship. The Cuitu team is also encouraged to make sustainable choices in daily life, such as taking the bicycle or public transport to work.

Locally produced: Cuitu's products are made in Finland and the materials are also sourced from Europe.
