SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainable Kidswear Sourcing, From Fibre to Shipment

Children's clothing should be as gentle on the planet as it is on a child's skin. We source certified organic and Better Cotton fibres, favour lower-impact wet processing, and work only with factories that meet international social-compliance standards.

Certified Organic & Better Cotton

  • GOTS-certified organic cotton yarns for babywear and knitwear, with Transaction Certificates (TCs) for every production batch.
  • Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) cotton for everyday basics and blended yarns.
  • Sewing thread and labels in organic or recycled polyester to match your brand's sustainability targets.

Lower-Impact Washing & Dyeing

  • Ozone washing bleaches denim using oxygen, reducing water consumption by up to 60% and eliminating chlorine bleach.
  • Laser distressing replaces sandblasting, which is banned across our network for worker safety.
  • Biodegradable enzymes for stonewash effects, and partner mills that follow the ZDHC (Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals) roadmap for wastewater treatment.

Less Fabric Waste

  • Fully fashioned knitting shapes each sweater panel on the machine, reducing cut-and-sew fabric waste by up to 15%.
  • Pre-shrunk, conditioned yarn lots reduce post-wash distortion and rejected garments.

Ethical Factories

  • Partner factories audited under BSCI, WRAP and Sedex social-compliance frameworks.
  • Regular inspections against social and environmental criteria, including fair wages and safe working conditions.
  • Local QC teams on the factory floor in India, Bangladesh and Vietnam.
