Our value chain

At every step, from design to the end of life of the product, we seek the best solution to avoid environmental impact, contribute to the benefit of our society and offer the best product in terms of design and durability.

SECOND LIFE

Our garments are biodegradable, the fabrics are 80% composed of the same sustainable material.

We offer our customers a 20% discount for the return of our used garments. We believe in giving these garments a second life.

ECODESIGN

We are based on the principles of eco-design to ensure clean production and a lasting product life. We avoid wasting materials, use organic and biodegradable materials, and stay away from the latest trends to offer quality and a long durability for each garment.

DISTRIBUTION

We substitute use plastic wrapping for our garments and use tissue paper instead. For wholesale orders, we reuse packaging sent by our suppliers.

We prefer to work with carriers that display a clear environmental policy and we look for the most efficient way to ship each shipment to minimize the environmental impact.

MATERIALS

We choose ecological, natural, recycled or bio synthetic fabrics. You will find below the fabrics we select for our collections.

We do not use polyester or recycled polyester.

Our internal fabric labels are made from leftover production fabrics.

Our tags and bags are made of recycled paper and our hangers are made of recycled carton.

MARKETING

Our commercial partners have similar philosophies to ours: offering a product with added value, they have a clearly defined internal policy to control the environmental impact of their activity, and work to promote a new model of consumption.

COMMUNICATION

On our website, blog and social media, we share our reflections on sustainability, the problematic textile activity such as research, relevant news, reports…

We also created a digital book on responsible consumption to help raise awareness and act appropriately.

LOCAL AND SOCIAL PRODUCTION

We work with workshops in Barcelona, in order to establish a relationship of proximity, trust and durability. We choose social ateliers when the situation allows it (due to timing or type of clothing).

We consider our suppliers as our partners.

Our fabrics

Sustainable and recycled fabrics

We love organic fabrics such as hemp, cotton and silk.

Fair trade handmade fabrics

We work with handmade fair trade silk, a silk that combines everything: organically produced, handmade by local farmers and coordinated by a local NGO.

Bio synthetic fabrics

We are interested in incorporating new bio-synthetic fabrics, because they are the future of the sector. At the moment, we have tencel lyocell and refibra tencel for their sustainability, qualities and properties.
