Sustainable Products

THE More SUSTAINABLE PRODUCT 

We believe it should be easy to buy products that have a reduced environmental impact for all our customers. 

Every six weeks we launch a collection that consists exclusively of sustainable materials. 

MATERIALS

We are aware that a large part of our negative environmental impact lies in the choice of materials. We offer our customers a wide range of ‘better materials’ such as certified organic, EcoVero and recycled materials. 

It can often be a challenge for smaller companies to order certified fabrics, as the minimum order quantity is often high. We offer our customers our normal low minimum of selected better materials, as we are purchasing larger quantities that we can share amongst our various customers. In this way we are supporting our customers in making use of materials that are less harmful to the environment than their conventional counterpart. 

 

 

STANDARDS

We have our standards which carry the core values of our company.

Our standards are that everyone is content with their day-to-day work, talk openly about expectations
