Our
sustainability categories

Our sustainability certificate standard lays the groundwork for identifying more sustainable products within our assortment. To give our customers a helping hand, we mark products with our We Care Together label if they comply with our sustainability certificate standard. Depending on the underlying sustainability certificate in question, the products are assigned to one of our three sustainability categories: Care for Materials, Care for Production, Care for Recycling. They relate to key topics covered by the sustainability certificates, while also being easy to understand.

Care for

Materials

Sustainable action involves taking responsibility for the impact on the environment and society. Products marked with the "Care for Materials" symbol are made from materials sourced and processed with particular attention to conserving resources. For agriculturally grown raw materials such as cotton, this means, for example, reducing the use of pesticides and chemicals, conserving water and energy, and ensuring social standards and fair working conditions. This helps preserve natural resources such as healthy soils and protects biodiversity. For animal-derived fibers, the focus is on ensuring animal welfare during material sourcing.

Care for

Production

The "Care for Production" symbol identifies products manufactured in strict compliance with environmental and social standards. By using resource-conserving methods, water consumption is reduced, the contamination of wastewater and soil is minimized, waste is decreased, and greenhouse gas emissions are lowered. At the same time, adherence to labor and social standards ensures fair working conditions, regulated working hours, and health and safety protections for those involved in the production process.

Care for

Recycling

Products marked with the "Care for Recycling" symbol represent a high commitment to resource reuse. Thanks to innovative technologies, many materials can now be recycled and integrated into a new lifecycle. These material cycles help conserve valuable resources and minimize waste. By considering the use of recycled fibers or the recyclability of the product at the end of its life right from the design stage, environmental impact can be reduced.
