At elaundry, we’re saying no to the throwaway culture. Here’s how we’re changing the story.
At elaundry, we believe what’s worth having is worth keeping — and caring for. Remember when things were made to last? Today, it’s common to find a broken zip, a worn-out seam, or a stretched-out tee after just a few wears. That’s not bad luck — it’s a business strategy called planned obsolescence, and it’s quietly filling our landfills and emptying our wallets.
But at elaundry, we believe there’s a better way — one stitched with purpose, care, and longevity.
What is Planned Obsolescence?Planned obsolescence is the intentional design of products to fail — forcing us to replace them again and again. It drives profit, but the true cost is borne by the planet… and our sense of value.
Instead of craftsmanship, we get cost-cutting. Instead of heirlooms, we get disposables. But at elaundry, we’re pushing back! Our Commitment:
1. Repair. Revive. Reimagine. Whether it’s your favourite dress, a handbag with history, or shoes with soul — we restore what matters. Our in-house alterations and repair specialists breathe new life into beloved garments, restore favorite accessories, – saving them from landfill and keeping your style story going.
2. We Monogram to Create Meaning We’re passionate about embroidering love into linen, initials into napkins, and legacy into luxury. Our monogramming and embroidery services transform everyday items — think linen napery, towels, and baby blankets — into heirlooms. Because we believe in creating things worth keeping and handing down.
3. We’re Gentle on the Earth and You From biodegradable dry cleaning bags to natural, sensitive-skin-safe detergents, everything we use and recommend is kind to the planet and to your home. You won’t find harsh chemicals or toxic shortcuts where ever possible — just honest care.
4. We Offer Timeless Tools, Not Trendy Toss-Aways With practical innovations like our elaundry Laundry Cards, we make communication clear and laundering stress-free — no more ruined silks or mystery stains. It’s about building systems that last.
5. We Champion Brands with the Same Ethos You’ll find products we truly believe in: That Red House, Vrindavan and Bosisto’s and our own homemade all natural products like The Monogram Home, elaundry, elegant homelife and more. Each one shares our mission to slow down, clean better, and consume consciously.
6. We Preserve Moments, Not Just Materials Through our Elegant Homelife Wedding Gown Preservation, we protect more than fabric — we preserve memory. Your gown deserves more than a hanger in the back of the wardrobe. It deserves to be kept, protected, and ready to be loved again — whether by you or the next generation.
