Recycling

We are using more recycled material to produce our pants and jackets. This way, used polyester material that was, for instance, previously found in PET drinking bottles is given a new high-quality purpose. Reusing polyester meaningfully in new clothing protects Earth's natural resources and won't lead to a decrease in the quality of our clothing. Our long-term goal is the subsequent recycling of our garments so that the production process can come full circle.

With the Spring/Summer 2021 line, we are changing our packaging concept to be based on environmentally friendly, recycled materials. This is the first step. Our long-term goal is to largely avoid using packing materials at all.

In the near future, our recyclable polybags will also be produced from recycled materials. Since we produce seven-figure-numbers of them every year, this will mean noticeable saving of fossil resources such as mineral oil.

The coat hangers we use also mark a step forward regarding sustainability. Going forward, we will utilise coat hangers made from 100% recycled materials. At the same time, our hangtags reach paper quality levels certified with FSC-Mix. This label guarantees that the raw material originates from sustainably farmed forests. An additional step has already been initiated: Starting with the Autumn/Winter 2021/22 collection, we will be delivering our complete outdoor collection flat-packed, resource-conserving and properly packaged.

Recycling also plays a part in our T-shirts made from S.Café™ Ice Café®. This func-tional fabric that quickly wicks moisture and has a noticeable cooling effect on the skin comes from recycled coffee grounds. A basic substance found in abundance. Coffee is con-sidered particularly environmentally friendly as it is a renewable vegetable raw material.
