Ethical Policy, Sustainability
We work with environmental and social responsibility, ensuring fair pay to the people and safe working environment.
Garment design, production, and distribution is focusing on the use of sustainable fabrics and production methods as well as the reduction of carbon emissions.
Our Offices
Our offices in Athens are equipped with renewable energy sources in order to cover our energy needs exclusively by solar power. Additionally, we have developed internal procedures to tackle this matter, such as promoting recycling and waste reduction, plastic avoidance and installation of LED’s to save energy.
We encourage our suppliers to reduce their environmental impact as much as possible, through innovation and certifications.
Factories
All factories that we work with are audited on a continuous basis providing fair wages always respecting the local laws.
All factories are equipped with proper lighting & sanitation facilities. The working conditions are such that prevent work-related injuries and accidents.
Additionally, we provide our customers transparent information for all issues related to their production-order.
Transportation
In our effort to minimize the carbon footprint of transportation and shorten the transport lead time of the deliveries, we have created our own forwarding company in Greece, operating as an international hub. Thus, we use the port of Piraeus, which is the closest European port to Asia, as an entrance gate to Europe. Then we consolidate the cargo and forward it to our customers by truck or train, minimizing again the carbon emissions. This is how we support sustainability, not only in garment production but also in transportation
