Buy Sustainable Rakhis and celebrate the festival in an Eco-friendly way!

Whether it's planting a seed from your rakhi, or a rakhi made entirely from reusable materials, a small step towards an eco-friendly celebration goes a long way. And, so we have curated this list of brands that offer beautiful sustainable rakhis online.

Every year we buy Rakhis that are of one-time use and eventually get thrown away. So this year, why not consider a more sustainable option and buy a Rakhi, which is environmental-friendly too? We bring a list of brands offering sustainable Rakhis online. Cherish your siblinghood and save the environment at the same time!

1. Guman

Created from pure linen and cotton rags, Guman provides premium quality handcrafted Rakhis. Their Rakhis contain seeds that can later be planted and grown. What's more? The brand even claims that the proceeds from these sales go towards feeding stray dogs. We say it is a win-win situation for all, so go get them.

2. SeedRakhi

SeedRakhi is another popular online store that offers a range of sustainable and eco-friendly Rakhis and was founded by brothers Nitin and Ankit Jain. Made from indigenous and organic cotton threads, the Rakhis are naturally dyed and have sunflower, papaya, rice, or basil seeds to grow a personalized plant after use.
