The bigger picture
Facing the reality that resources are scarce and that the population is continuing to grow, ARMEDANGELS as a sustainable fashion brand solely uses preferred materials. The tool does not only provide us with a material benchmark of the industry in general; but also supports us in our own research on materials that are ecologically optimized and socially and ethically advanced and serves as a further spur to continuously make progressive change.
— Levinia Muth, CR Manager, ARMEDANGELS
Aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals
It’s time to take bold action now. We owe this to our children, to the planet, and to the people who work in our supply chains. So let’s work together and be accountable to our progress. Let’s commit to sourcing raw materials with integrity and fairness. Let’s honor the value of people, energy, water and the soil. Let’s work together to really create positive impact in the world, because this is the task for our generation. We only have this one world and if we don’t take care of it, who will?
– Nanda Bergstein, Director Corporate Responsibility, Tchibo
