Sustainability
We aim to maximize resource efficiency in production while promoting sustainable environment for both present and future by balancing human and natural needs.
Eim Score
The EIM score measures sustainability in the manufacturing process by evaluating environmental impacts in industrial washing (water, energy, and chemical use). Scores are categorized as green, orange, or red and take into account employee health and safety. Our goal is to receive the highest, green EIM score and continually improve our manufacturing to reduce resource use and uphold social and environmental standards. Currently, most of our pants have a green EIM score, and we aim to increase this success.
