Behind every product we create is a simple promise: to respect and protect the people who help make it. Ethical production isn’t just a requirement for us — it’s a responsibility we take seriously. That’s why we conduct thorough, hands-on audits throughout our supply chain, ensuring that every step of production meets our strict standards for fairness, safety, and dignity.
Going beyond paperwork
Our audits aren’t just checklists or digital forms. We go beyond reviewing documents to understand the real working conditions inside our partners’ facilities. Some but not all elements that each audit includes:
-
Fair wages and work hours — confirming that workers are paid appropriately and schedules comply with local laws and collective agreements.
-
Safe environments — inspecting production areas, equipment, and safety measures to protect employees’ well-being.
-
Respect for rights — ensuring workers have the freedom to organize, access collective agreements, and work without fear or discrimination.
-
Transparent processes — reviewing how materials are sourced and how production workflows impact both people and the planet.
First-hand verification matters
We believe that numbers on paper only tell part of the story. That’s why our audits include on-site visits and direct interviews with workers and management. These conversations help us understand day-to-day realities, identify potential risks, and make sure that every partner is truly aligned with our ethical commitments.
Holding our partners accountable
If a partner fails to meet our standards, we take immediate action. This can include requiring improvements within a strict timeframe — or ending the partnership if violations go against our core values, such as our zero-tolerance policy for child labor. Our goal isn’t just compliance; it’s creating a culture of respect and fairness across our entire supply chain.
