To make innovative products, you need innovative materials. Our materials are sourced carefully to perform at the highest levels of quality standards, chemical restrictions, and sustainability requirements. We use the Worldly tool suite to monitor our materials’ and products’ impact on global warming, eutrophication (excessive richness of nutrients in water degrading biodiversity), water scarcity, and their reliance on fossil fuels and chemistry.
Field and laboratory tests are carried out before approving every new reference for production. All materials and products must meet our Chemical requirements & restricted substance list, which goes beyond the REACH regulation. The compliance of our products and components is verified in random chemical tests carried out every year to ensure there is no deviation over time. We are also working on nominating 100% of our materials suppliers to improve our environmental impact, the quality of our products, and ensure the social compliance of our partners.
We try and use most of our materials across different styles in our collection to improve material usage efficiency and increase our control on fewer references, contributing to better performance but also giving us opportunities to obtain specific certifications we wouldn’t be able to get otherwise.
