25 years ago, our main manufacturer was based on 3 core values: to provide employees with high wages, ensure a high level of safety in the company and to provide food to employees during their working hours. Year after year, new steps are taken and various projects are implemented to improve the working conditions of employees and the way they can help the environment. The company has since been highlighted by the “world forum for a responsible economy.”

They are above local standards for being eco-friendly, receiving the certifications: ISO 9001/2015 and ISO14001/2015 ECOCERT, Max Havelaar – Fairtraide/Flocert, Global Organic Textile Standard by ECOCERT GREENLIFE, Gore-Tex workwear and more.
