The four disciplines

What gets audited.

MAT·04 on file

Materials

What the fiber claims, proven.

Organic, recycled, non-toxic. Every claim your label makes is a claim we have to substantiate. Fiber content is certified at the standard level with GOTS, Organic 100 and Recycled 100, and finished fabric is screened for harmful substances under OEKO-TEX.

Social & Ethics

How our people are treated, audited.

Factory conditions aren't taken on our word. WRAP accreditation and SEDEX membership open our floors to independent social audits, and the SMETA, BSCI and SA8000 reports they produce travel with the compliance file we hand over.

Security & Quality

How reliably it ships, certified.

C-TPAT certification secures the chain of custody from factory floor to port. Behind that certification, an independent QA team works across every operation, and each customer gets a QC team allocated for the life of the program.

Environment

What the footprint is, measured.

Footprint is measured, not narrated. Higg Index scoring runs across our facilities, carbon accountability is certified at the facility level, and low-water finishing carries its own verification.
