Sustainability

TOGETHER FOR A BETTER VERSION OF YOU AND THE PLANET

IMPROVE

Sustainable materials are at the core of our mission to constantly improve. We continuously increase our share of recycled polyester, and although all cotton used is already certified sustainable, we are replacing it by more resource-effective viscose. Using SolutionDye has drastically lowered the amount of water used to dye our textiles.

EMPOWER

To us, social and planetary sustainability are equally important. We work actively to secure fair terms and working conditions for those who manufacture our products. As for our users, we welcome everybody, regardless of shape, gender or form, to take on challenges in clothes that bring out the very best in them.

CIRCLE

The shift to a circular economy has already changed how we design clothes, use recycled materials and prepare our products for recycling. We are also pioneering new processes such as producing new garments using thread made out of discarded football shirts/(jerseys). We constantly challenge ourselves to improve – in order for you to become a better version of yourself and for us, together, to actively create a sustainable future for the planet.

WATER

Minimizing water usage is a major challenge for all textile manufacturers. For us at SOC, this is a prioritized topic. To minimize our water usage during the production of our clothes, we invest majorly in the energy and water efficient technology: Solution Dye.

CHEMICALS

We are working continuously to ensure that our production does not contain substances and chemicals which can cause skin irritation, allergies, be carcinogenic or have a negative impact on the environment.

ANIMAL CARE

Animals have the right to be treated humanely and have their basic needs met. Our demands regarding animal care when it comes to production is based on “The five freedoms” developed by The World Organization for Animal Health.

SUSTAINABLE AND RECYCLABLE MATERIALS

Our goal at SOC is 100 percent sustainable textile materials by 2025. By sustainable materials we mean materials that reduce our environmental footprint and promote a fairer production process.

QUALITY AND SAFETY

All of our products are tested internally and by independent test institutes to ensure that the latest safety and quality requirements are being met.

LOGISTICS AND TRANSPORT

We constantly reduce the amount of material used to pack and transport our products. In collaboration with our suppliers and partners, we find ways to make sure our transports have as little impact on the environment as possible.
