Introduction to Fairever: Championing Transparency and Traceability in Ethical Gold
At Fairever, we believe that true ethicality goes beyond just a label. In an industry where "green" or "ethical" claims often lack depth, we stand committed to a standard of transparency and traceability that genuinely transforms lives and protects the environment. Our approach is anchored in the belief that ethical jewelry can—and should—be a force for good, creating a positive impact from mine to market.
Our Philosophy: Ethicality Rooted in Authenticity
Many companies claim to offer ethical gold, but their promises often fall short upon closer inspection. Lacking independent verification and traceability, these claims do little to improve the living and working conditions of mining communities. At Fairever, we challenge this norm by setting a higher standard for what ethical sourcing should mean. By working with Fairtrade Gold, Fairmined Gold, and Fairmined Silver, we ensure that every piece of metal we source is traceable to its origin and mined under the highest social and environmental standards.
People First: Fair Prices and Sustainable Development
Fairever’s commitment begins with the people who mine our gold. We pay fair prices to small-scale miners, empowering them to create safer working conditions, pay better wages, and develop their operations sustainably. Beyond fair pricing, we contribute additional social premiums that foster long-term, positive change in their communities. This support enables equitable collaboration, helping to build a brighter future for the miners, their families, and the broader community.
A Commitment to Environmental Stewardship
Responsible small-scale mining is not only about fairness to people but also about respect for the environment. Through rigorous certification, the mines we work with commit to stringent environmental protection measures. This includes the responsible handling of chemicals and the implementation of renaturation projects that restore the land after mining activities. Our goal is to ensure that the natural resources we all depend on are preserved for future generations.
Setting the Standard for Ethical Sourcing
At Fairever, our commitment to rigorous standards is demonstrated through our partnerships with leading non-profit organizations. We collaborate with Fairtrade, a label you may recognize from coffee or chocolate, and the Alliance for Responsible Mining (ARM), known for their Fairmined label. These partnerships are crucial in ensuring that the small-scale producers we work with receive the support they need to meet and maintain the highest standards of social and environmental responsibility.
