Sustainability

We take responsibility towards sustainable development. In our own actions we take responsibility for the environment with our resource efficient circular solutions.  We also take care that human rights and financial responsibility are in the core of our development.

Strategy

Our operations are based on a strong ecological value base and our goal of building a circular economy ecosystem and eventually amore environmentally friendly textile industry. This is something we can achieve in cooperation with our customers and other stakeholders.

It is a priority for us to listen to our customers and to develop their business with the help of our expertise.

We strive for active and long-term, growing partnerships with our customers and suppliers.

Quality & Compliance

We are committed to complying with our values, our Code of conduct and the requirements of laws, regulations as well as quality and environmental standards (ISO 9001 and ISO 14001).

We continuously develop our skills and operations, f.ex. by evaluating and measuring our processes, training our personnel and by practicing active stakeholder engagement.

Commitment

We continuously develop our products, supply chain and services as well as our own operations towards an increasingly sustainable direction, and actively report on our accomplishments to our stakeholders and  the UN Global Compact.

In addition, our ambitious goal in support of the development of our industry is that Green Public Procurement - and Circular procurement criteria will be seen in public tenders in the near future.

Production

We do not own our own production facilities but co-operate with carefully selected parties and the goal is always a long-term partnership and close co-operation.

We work hard to deliver our customers’ orders as agreed, even in challenging situations. Our goal is to exceed their expectations for high quality and ecological workwear and related services.

We are in close contact with all our production partners and perform audits on a regular basis. We are a member of Amfori BSCI.

Textile recycling

Our planet is drowning in waste. In Scandinavia alone, more than 350 million kilos of textile waste are generated each year and most of it ends up for incineration. The transition of the textile industry from a linear model to a circular economy is essential, as virgin materials cannot sustain the current structure of the textile industry.

For each new collection delivered, we will take back an equivalent amount of textiles from our customers for further processing. Our customers textiles do not end up in our atmosphere as smoke. Instead waste materials that have reached the end of their service life are processed into new raw materials for industrial needs in accordance with our commitment.
