The House of Marley products are of superior quality in both sound and design and are made from eco-friendly materials that embody the Marley family's values of equality, unity, authenticity, sustainability and charity.
"Our father shared his vision with our family and his fans through the gift of the messages in his music and it is our mission and responsibility to push the movement forward," said Cedella Marley, Bob Marley's daughter. "The House of Marley and the MARLEY audio products that bear our family name were created to spread our father's music and vision to a new generation."
MARLEY headphones are comprised of three collections: Jammin', Freedom, and Destiny. All products feature noise isolating in-ear and active noise cancelling over-ear headphones. Docking stations and portable audio systems should follow in the UAE soon afterwards.
"The House of Marley range is devoted to encompassing Bob Marley's vision of hope, unity and peace through high-quality, funky and sustainable products. To further resonate Bob's dreams, a portion of sales from these products help in funding the Marley family's 1Love charities that are focused on youth, our planet and peace. Virgin Megastore is proud to introduce the collection of MARLEY audio products to the UAE, offering our customers an original range of stylish, premium quality headphones and the opportunity to contribute to a greater cause." said Ahab Shamaa, Regional Product Manager, Virgin Megastore MENA.
Four guiding principles are central to turning Bob's ideals into actions at The House of Marley: Superior Quality, Sustainably Sourced, Cause Minded and Waste Conscious.
Superior Quality: Bob was a master at his craft and The House of Marley aims for the same excellence in everything it creates. Using reggae music as the test by which all MARLEY products are made, bass is the driving force in every product. That doesn't mean the highs have been neglected, however. MARLEY products aim for authenticity and you can hear it in every instrument and vocal. MARLEY products are made to withstand even the most active lifestyle and to emulate Bob - timeless.
Sustainably Sourced: The House of Marley's goal is to create high-quality products in the most ethical and environmentally positive way. MARLEY audio products are made with FSC certified wood, the highest standard for wood and forest products, and use recycled and recyclable aluminium and plastic. The House of Marley is continuously searching for the highest-quality, lowest environmentally impactful materials the world has to offer.
Cause Minded: A portion of proceeds from The House of Marley will benefit 1Love.org. The organisation, sparked by the Marley family, is dedicated to spreading Bob Marley's message of unity and peace by lifting up the new generation to strike the hammer for charities, causes and ideas that can change the world with a focus on youth, planet and peace. Learn more at 1Love.org.
Waste Conscious: The House of Marley creates eco-conscious products that aim to be sustainable, renewable and recyclable. But one thing it's not about creating is waste. Each MARLEY product is packaged using pulp or recycled and recyclable material, so it can avoid the waste stream and manifest into something useful again. In addition, MARLEY ear buds and headphones come with storage bags made from natural fibres, such as cotton and hemp.
Exclusively available at Virgin Megastores.
