SUSTAINABLE AND ETHICAL FASHION
From concept to completion.
We adopt sustainable practices from concept through to order completion. This includes 3D design to reduce the amount of physical samples required, optimisation of cutting and sewing processes, use of high efficiency energy saving equipment during sewing, washing and finishing stages and water resource management. We are also increasing the amount of sustainable materials we are using in production and now 70% of our total volume is made from sustainable fibres.
We have ambitious targets for continued environmental improvement and we're working in alignment with the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, UNFCCC and Science Based Targets initiative to help us deliver these.
We've committed to promote collective action in our supply chain to achieve a 45% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
Our future plans..
01.
Achieve a waste recycling rate of over 90% in the production process, through better training, improved technology and Establishing a scrap classification and recycling system, reusing recyclable scraps for re-production or reselling.​​
02.
Increase water-saving production equipment, such as low-flow washing machines and water-saving cooling systems.
Implement rainwater collection and utilisation systems for non-production uses such as cleaning.
Increase inspections and maintain water supply and drainage systems to prevent leaks and waste.
03.
Invest in renewable energy sources such as solar panels and wind power generation facilities to power the factories, gradually replacing our dependency on fossil fuels.
04.
Participate in carbon offset projects and afforestation, to offset unavoidable carbon emissions
05.
Establish an Environmental Protection and Carbon Footprint Management Team responsible for overseeing the implementation progress and effectiveness of various plans.
Regularly evaluate environmental protection and carbon footprint performance, adjust and optimise plans based on evaluation results.
