Sustainability and ethics, trusted by the worlds best:
Built on sustainability, from day one
Founded in 2012, two friends set out to disrupt the textile industry, having seen the poor ethical and environmental practices in fashion and retail.
Our goal was to fix these same problems, but by focusing on the millions of units produced every year for custom workwear, uniform, merchandise, and retail. This isn't a new initiative - or a move to 'jump on the bandwagon', sustainability has been at our core since day one.
Your purchases help us to create a fairer more sustainable textiles industry.

Nothing changes without you
Choosing sustainable products not only benefits people and the planet, but it also demonstrates your organisation's commitment to its values to your team, customers, and the broader community. Through clothing, you can wear your brand values every single day.
For large organisations, sustainable clothing can ensure your supply chains are aligned with your ESG goals and the wider sustainable development goals.
Your ethical and sustainable options
Below you will find supply chain details on several of our core product ranges. If you are interested in more information on any of our products, please get in touch.
Fairtrade products
If sustainability & ethics are your priority above everything else, this is the range for you.
Every single Fairtrade organic product we supply is manufactured and certified according to the highest environmental, social and ethical standards in the world. These products are the real deal and certified by the Fairtrade Foundation.
Organic products
If you need a middle ground between sustainability, ethics and price, this is the range for you.
Organic cotton means no harsh chemicals used in the fields/factories, 90% less water usage than conventional cotton, no GMOs, and softer garments. 100% of our core organic product ranges are also certified by the Fair Wear Foundation, meaning ethics you can trust.
Recycled products
If you’re looking for products made from recycled materials, this is the range for you.
The UK consumes over 35.8 million plastic bottles every day. We make use of plastic waste and reclaimed cotton to create products like recycled T-shirts, hoodies and bags. Together we can help reduce carbon emissions and ensure fewer garments end up in landfill.

Sustainable, modern manufacturing
Producing printed and embroidered clothing can be resource intensive, so we’ve invested heavily in technology, so we can minimise our environmental impact and maximise quality.
Combined with our agile and dynamic supply chains, we have no minimum order quantity and your products are only made after they have been ordered by you. This means zero waste while still meeting tight deadlines.
Other ways we ensure our supply chain is environmentally friendly:
Using Kornit Atlas and Kornit Avalanche HD6 printers ensures we are able to print using some of the most environmentally friendly technology available.
Printing with water-based NeoPigment™ inks that are non-hazardous, non-toxic and biodegradable.
Screen printing, using 100% Phthalate free screen printing inks.
Embroidering products using Madeira Threads, regarded as one of the most sustainable thread suppliers on the planet.
Powering our production facilities with renewable energy wherever possible.
The best ethical standards in the world
We know you care about the people who make the garments you wear. That’s why we only work with manufacturing partners who adhere to the highest ethical standards.
But we don’t want you to take our word for it. That’s why we source products from manufacturers who are externally certified by independent organisations.
The widest range of ethically sourced sustainable clothing available worldwide
Our ambitious goal of making sustainable custom clothing accessible to everyone is made possible through working with a range of manufacturing partners. These partnerships enable us to hold one of the largest ranges of ethically sourced sustainable wholesale clothing in the world.
