Our service reduces textile overproduction by extending the lifetime of textiles and by producing new textiles only when needed. By using durable materials and designing for circularity, we promote sustainable practices at the very beginning. We avoid millions of kilos of unnecessary textile production by repairing and re-using our garments. 

We manufacture additional orders on demand in our own workwear manufacturing facilities, Prodems, which is an effective way to eliminate the textile obsolete risk in our stocks. To conserve natural resources, we optimise the use of water and energy in our laundries and customer delivery loads and routes. In the washing process, we recycle water and use heat from wastewater to warm fresh water. When textiles reach the end of their lives, we aim to recycle them as new products or raw materials.

At the core of our operations lies a commitment to responsible business practices, which guides our decisions and actions. Our approach centres around three key themes that reflect our dedication to creating a positive and lasting impact on our employees, our partners, and the communities we serve.

Our commitment to sustainability comes to life through our We Care culture, embraced daily by our leaders and dedicated teams. Their actions are guided by our management systems, policies, commitments, and guidelines. In our annual Sustainability report we publish the most significant impacts on people, the environment and economy, and how we manage those impacts.

The Forerunners of Sustainability is a series of stories in which our customers talk about sustainability and how we work together for more sustainable business. The stories are told by customers for whom sustainability is an important part of their company’s purpose and strategy.
