Eco design and materials
Our organisation and model are centred around customers who are looking for the latest fashion trends but also timeless quality design. We share the same awareness for protecting the environment. That is why we work every day to offer more sustainable garments and services.
Committed to working in a more sustainable way, our brands are expanding their collections with eco-friendly and sustainable materials and processes. To make our garments more environmentally friendly, we are focusing on three key stages within our value chain.
Production processes
Creating more sustainable garments is also achieved through more environmentally friendly processes which involve reducing chemicals in our garments as well as using water appropriately.
Eco design
The design is the first chance in our value chain to incorporate sustainable goals from the beginning of the process.
Our employees have received specific training sessions aimed at raising awareness and approaching these issues with our product and purchasing departments.
Within the scope of eco design, research is being carried out on new materials and the use of more sustainable techniques in the design process and finishes of garments with lower water and energy consumption, such as ozone and laser techniques.
Raw materials
During the design stage when the collections are taking shape, selecting the fabrics and materials to be used is a key part of the process. We are using more natural raw materials to manufacture our garments to make them more environmentally friendly.

Fibres
ORGANIC COTTON
Its seeds are not genetically modified and it is grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. It needs 90% less water tan conventional cotton.
RDS (RESPONSABILE DOWN STANDARD)
It is an independent, voluntary global standard that ensures a process without cruelty to animals. The down is 100% natural and biodegradable and guarantees lightness, insulation, and maximum breathability.
SORONA R Dupont ™
This synthetic fibre is a biopolymer partly made of natural materials. Producing it uses less energy, reduces CO2 emissions and uses renewable natural resources instead of petroleum products.
RECYCLED POLYESTER
Recycled polyester is the same quality as virgin polyester but uses fewer resources and emits less CO2 in its manufacturing process.
ECOVERO ™
LENZING ™ Ecovero ™ fibre is a viscose obtained from sustainable wood and cellulose which comes from certified sources. Its manufacturing process reduces emissions and impact on water resources by 50 per cent.
RECYCLED WOOL
Wool is a renewable, biodegradable, insulating, and durable material that prevents bad odours from building up.
THERMOLITE ®
THERMOLITE T-Down EcoMade provides a new generation of recycled synthetic fibre designed to replace down. It is GRS approved and made from 100% recycled PET fibre.
TENCEL® LYOCELL
Biodegradable fabrics made from the wood of eucalyptus trees from forests that are managed in a sustainable manner. It is very pleasant to the touch and very resistant to stretching and wrinkles due to its moisture management
property.
