Since 2021, the B&C brand has had a dedicated sustainability department of 4 people, making it one of the most staffed in their sector. Woohoo! 🤗

100% of their factories are audited by the Fair Wear Foundation and/or BSCI.

Their 24 employees based in Bangladesh monitor purchasing and production on a daily basis, 14 of them also visit their factories regularly and 1 focuses solely on issues related to sustainable development (social and environmental). 🌍

100% of their partner factories (CMTs) are equipped with an efficient ETP (Effluent Treatment Facility): their warehouse has produced more than 10,000 MWh/year of renewable energy! 👌

Textile mills must ensure that none of the chemicals and substances used in the manufacture of fabrics come from companies that test on animals. Until today, The Cotton Group has never made a product with materials of animal origin... And we congratulate them! 🐾
