Sustainability Month

Fabienne Chapot While our journey towards sustainable improvement never ends, we take responsibility through education, awareness, and tangible guidelines. We are constantly looking for ways to improve and do better, daily. Setting annual commitments allows us to hold ourselves accountable and hopefully inspire others to do the same. While this can sometimes feel vulnerable (and we love to share a lot), we believe this is the best way forward. Change doesn’t happen overnight, and some things may seem simple while they are actually very complex. We also hope that by openly sharing our journey, we inspire others in the industry to learn from us—or maybe even collaborate to create solutions. We know we are far from perfect, but we believe that making mistakes—and learning from them—is all part of our path to improvement.

Garcia We are Garcia. We are a fashion brand that dresses families. Just like any family, we’re not perfect. But like all families, we try to do better every day, especially when it comes to sustainability. At Garcia, we do our best to make as many jeans as possible with more than 20% recycled cotton, contributing to a circular economy. According to the Denim Deal, the potential impact of producing one billion jeans with at least 20% post-consumer cotton would result in the use of 217,360 tons of post-consumer cotton textile waste.

King Louie King Louie works every day for a more sustainable fashion industry. You can see this in more and more aspects within our company. From sustainable packaging and transport to designing timeless items that last. But also think of fair working conditions, the use of sustainable materials (65%), and launching green events. Because of this, we are now at a point where we can proudly say that sustainability is at the heart of our brand.

Mart Visser Mart Visser & Sustainability Within Mart Visser's collection, a lot of responsibility is taken to minimize the impact on the environment. Sustainability and social responsibility are therefore becoming an increasingly important part of Mart Visser's DNA. This social responsibility is ensured by exclusively working with manufacturers who are certified or in the process of obtaining certifications. In the development and production of Mart Visser products, more sustainable materials are increasingly being used. Mart Visser and his team strive daily to take further steps and make improvements.

Quality For the production of Mart Visser clothing, high-quality materials are used. This ensures that a Mart Visser product lasts for several seasons. By taking good care of a garment after purchase, it will remain in perfect condition for years.

Materials & Resources To reduce the environmental impact of the Mart Visser collection, more sustainable materials are increasingly being used. To facilitate conscious choices, the sustainable items are labeled with a sustainability label. These items can also be found in the brand store in Batavia Stad and are provided with physical labels to emphasize their sustainability.

Tommy Hilfiger

At Tommy Hilfiger, we’re on a mission to build a future of fashion where we waste nothing. This is why we’ve committed to ensuring 100% of the cotton we use is more sustainable compared to conventional alternatives by 2025. Today, 97% of the cotton we use at Tommy Hilfiger comes from a mix of organic cotton, regenerative cotton, and other recycled and sustainable production sources.

TRIUMPH We work with leading certification standards like GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standards) and GRS (Global Recycled Standards) to strengthen our transition to materials with less environmental impact. In July 2022, we completed full GOTS and GRS certification for our European region. All involved suppliers and factories will be audited annually.
