Our products are produced in certified factories, such as BSCI or Sedex, or are manufactured in the Netherlands under the supervision of our production team. BSCI supports companies in promoting social responsibility and working conditions in factories throughout the production chain. BSCI implements the principle of international labour standards that protect workers' rights.
This product is produced in Europe. By producing closer to our distribution centre, we aim to reduce emissions due to transport as much as possible.
The GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certificate guarantees the use of organically grown textiles and that production is done in an environmentally and socially responsible manner. GOTS looks at the full production chain - from harvesting and production to processing to sustainable clothing.
This product contains organic cotton. Organic cotton is grown safely and processed without toxic dyes and is treated without chemicals.
This product contains recycled polyester. Recycled polyester extends the lifetime of non-biodegradable fabrics. Recycled polyester requires 50% less energy and reduces CO2 emissions by 30%, compared to new polyester.
Our products are packed and shipped using sustainable packaging materials.
This product contains LENZING™ ECOVERO™, viscose fibers derived from sustainable wood coming from a certified source. It generates up to 50% less emission and water impact, compared to other viscose.
This product contains cupro with a GRS product standard whereby the supply chain, social responsibility, environmental regulations and chemical restrictions are checked. Cupro is an eco-friendly and bio-degradeable fabric produced with leftover cotton seeds.
This product contains FSC certified viscose yarns, whereby the ecological, social and economic aspects are taken into account.
An Oeko-Tex certified fabric does not contain harmful substances.
The Organic Content Standard (OCS) applies to non-food products containing 95-100% organic material. This involves checking the presence and quantity of biological material in a final product and the path taken by the raw materials from source to product.
This product contains LENZING Modal. This sustainable fabric is mainly composed of beech wood pulp that is made into plant-based fibers. The raw materials, the Beech wood trees, are harvested from both natural forests and sustainably managed plantations. Therefore, it has a smaller impact on the environment.
Lenzing Tencel is made from the wood and cellulose of sustainably harvested Eucalyptus trees. This tree grows quickly without the need for irrigation, pesticides, fertilizers or genetic engineering. The fiber yield per hectare is up to 10 times higher than cotton and requires up to 20 times less water.
This product contains EcoVero, viscose fibers derived from sustainable wood coming from a certified source. It generates up to 50% less emission and water impact, compared to other viscose.
Leather Working Group (LWG) Gold Certificate is the leading environmental certification for the leather manufacturing industry, assessing the supply chain (water & energy usage, waste & chemical management, health & safety). The leather comes from Germany and the products are produced in the Netherlands.
This product contains Birla Modal.This sustainable fabric comes from beech wood pulp, which is harvested from natural and 100% renewable forests. Viscose fibre is superior in terms of low water intensity, land-use efficiency and circularity. Therefore, it has a smaller impact on the environment.
This product contains Birla Livaeco, a sustainable and FSC certified fabric based on naturally occuring cellulose from wood. This renewable material comes from sustainably managed forests. No pesticides or fertilizers are used in the forests. The viscose is made in a closed-loop system, minimizing the use of chemicals, water and energy.
We ship all packages from our distribution center to the end consumer climate-neutrally. We are doing this through the DHL 'Go Green' programme, which invests in electric vehicles and compensates CO2 emissions.
ECOTEC is an exclusive process which transforms production waste, from weaving and knitting companies, into new yarns.
The yarns have far less impact on the environment*:
46,6% reduction on greenhouse effect
46,9% in energy savings
61,6% in water consumption throughout the complete process
*these numbers are based on the LCA (life cycle assessment, certified by ICEA).
