Fabrics
Sustainable fabrics in your collection
For your collection we give priority to GOTS-certified organic fabrics. Tell us which standard you need and we'll build it into the selection before the run starts.
Certification
The standards we select by
- Organic
GOTS
The strictest organic textile standard — it covers the whole chain, from fibre to finished garment. We source GOTS-certified fabric and pass the supplier's transaction certificate on to you; we are not currently certified as a GOTS processor, so garments cannot be sold as GOTS-certified.
- Cotton
Better Cotton
Some of our suppliers source cotton through Better Cotton's mass-balance system. Ask us and we'll confirm what applies to your fabric.
- Safety
Oeko-Tex
Where you need it, we source fabric certified to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, and send the supplier's certificate on with the delivery.
If your market requires a particular certificate, tell us at the outset. We request the documentation for the chosen fabric from the supplier and pass it on with the run. Certification affects both the fabric choice and the price.
The range
Sustainable fibres we work with
The six fibres we most often suggest when a brand wants a more sustainable option.
01
Organic cotton
Grown without harmful pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. Saves water and protects soil health.
02
Lyocell
A biodegradable fibre made from wood cellulose.
03
Modal
A very soft cellulosic fibre made from beech. Needs less land and water than conventional cotton.
04
Recycled polyester
Made from post-consumer PET bottles; GRS-certified stock available on request.
05
Viscose
A cellulosic fibre — we source from FSC- or PEFC-certified wood where the supplier can document it.
06
Linen
The flax plant grows even in poor soil, with little water and few pesticides.
People
Your goods are sewn here, not at an unknown subcontractor
Every stage happens in our own Belgrade factory, in working conditions you're welcome to come and see. Everyone on the floor is directly employed by us.
When a customer asks where your goods are made, you can give them an address — instead of explaining a chain you don't know yourself.
- Safe, orderly working conditions in our own factory.
- Pay that reflects a worker's skill and years on the job.
- Every team member's contribution is seen and valued.
Ahead
What we are working on next
Three directions we follow while sourcing materials and refining production.
- 01
Less waste
Cutting down on fabric offcuts through marker making and run planning.
- 02
A smaller carbon footprint
A shorter supply chain and European mills instead of overseas ones.
- 03
A longer-lasting garment
A garment that stays in wear longer is the simplest way to cut waste.

Tell us which standard you need
Certification affects the fabric choice, the lead time and the price, so it is best raised at the outset — before the sample is made.
