At Batik Boutique, every product is more than just beautifully handcrafted — it’s a catalyst for positive change. As a B Corp-certified social enterprise, we adhere to the highest standards of sustainability and social responsibility. Guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) —
We are committed to uplifting communities and protecting the environment through every piece we create.
Our goal is to empower marginalized communities across Malaysia, including women, refugees, and residents of Public Housing Programs (PPR), by providing skills training and fair wages. This approach enables over 400 artisans and their families to break the cycle of poverty and turn their traditional skills into sustainable livelihoods. Every item we sell reflects their dedication and craftsmanship.
Recently, we helped one of our artisans, Aznan, by replacing the roof of his workspace, allowing him to increase his production capacity tenfold. In addition, we continue to support 25 students monthly at a local refugee school, further extending our impact beyond just artisans.
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles are now critical for businesses that want to lead with purpose. We help companies meet their ESG objectives by offering meaningful partnerships – creating solutions that allow businesses to meet their sustainability goals through:
Sustainable Corporate Gifting: Our handcrafted products, from batik scarves to home decor, are eco-conscious and perfect for businesses that prioritize ethical procurement.
Joint Social Impact Projects: We collaborate on initiatives like mangrove tree planting, where your company can make a visible and tangible difference to the environment.
Ethical Supply Chain Management: Partnering with Batik Boutique ensures that your company’s supply chain is both socially responsible and environmentally sustainable.
Our partnerships are designed to amplify your company’s values, helping you connect your business goals with measurable social and environmental impact.
We are committed to preserving Malaysia’s cultural heritage by promoting authentic, hand-drawn batik, rather than mass-produced imitations. Each piece tells the story of the artisan who created it, directly contributing to their livelihood and our shared goal of sustainability. Whether it's fashion, homeware, or accessories, every product embodies the principles of slow fashion — ethical production, mindful consumption, and respect for both people and the planet.
We believe that business can be a powerful driver of social and environmental change. That’s why we actively participate in ESG conferences and events, advocating for sustainable practices and sharing our insights with like-minded organizations. By aligning with us, your company not only supports the artisans behind each product but also joins a broader movement committed to ethical business practices and lasting global impact.
