We have an in-house Compliance resource, that currently conducts random compliance audits at our vendors. This resource was trained by TUV and by one of our brand partners. We use this essential skill to do vendor pre-assessments as well and to train vendors on our brand partners’ compliance requirements. Our compliance audits are done randomly and are unannounced.

Monthly Zero Tolerance Violation Validations Points:-

Our team conducts monthly ZTV validation exercises and reviews the following:-

• Factory’s access available or denied
• Child Labor
• Forced Labor
• Corporal Punishment
• Any reports or incidents of harassment
• Freedom of Association Violations
• Critical health and safety violations
• Non-Compliance to ethical standards
• Supplier’s failure to meet commitment on corrective actions in a reasonable time frame

• Our mill and vendor base have several Sustainability Initiative in place most of the time. At our source base, we take great pride in exceeding the basic requirements of Waste Water Treatment Plants.
• Our mills regularly use BCI cotton. It is cost neutral to regular cotton.
• Less water usage with the help of bio-degradable chemicals and machinery like e-flow nebulizer / low liquor-ratio washers. There are environmental and cost savings in this.
• Less energy usage like shorter wash cycle and eco-dryers.
• Use of laser and ozone machine for dry process to discontinue use of harmful chemicals like potassium permanganate (PP) and caustic soda. Use of laser actually reduces the number of second quality garments.
• Reduced impact on workers by means of discontinuing handling of the harmful chemicals and from the operation they do.

The impact of sustainable processes is assessed with the help of industry standard EIM software (Environmental Impact Measuring). The calculation of the environmental impact is based on four different categories:

• Water Consumption
• Energy Consumption
• Chemical product used
• Worker health

• Bench and process classification depending on the EIM score:

The lower the impact the Greener the product.

We believe in investing for the future and always encourage sustainable product sourcing!

We partner with key mills and vendors to develop seasonal collections that are inspired by upcoming trends in the Global fashion world. We take inspirations from fashion in Japan, Europe and US for these developments. Our presentations include fabric and/or full package apparel presentations.
