From day one, we have had only one objective: to create quality essential collections through an ethical and responsible approach.
We are happy to be able to design our creations according to our values and at the same time guarantee good working conditions for the people around us.
Indeed, today, we ensure fair remuneration to the workers of our partner workshops in order to allow people to live decently.
One of our founders is Istanbul, so it was logical to base our production in Istanbul but the location alone was not enough for us: we wanted to find workshops capable of responding to a strict quality approach, labeled and adapted to our values on the long term.
This is why we collaborate today with 3 local workshops which employ on average around forty employees.
All our partner workshops are:
1. audited via the BSCI system and received the highest grade, A2. Oeko-tex® standard 1003 certified.
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified
Concerning the BSCI audit, it offers manufacturers a methodology and a social audit report.
The BSCI system also provides means to help manufacturers gradually improve the working conditions of their employees and the quality of their supply chains.
Thus our workshops are united by a social commitment by respecting their employees but also the environment.
Thanks to transparent manufacturing processes, our partner establishments display environmentally friendly behavior.
Our workshops are all Oeko-tex® standard 100 certified.
What is it? Valid and known throughout the world since 1992, oeko-tex® or Oeko-Tex standard 100 certification applies to textile products, ranging from yarn to finished article.
This system then quickly eliminates all potential sources of hazardous substances throughout the manufacturing or further processing of a textile product.
What does the Oeko-Tex label certify?
The aim is to provide you with a simple guarantee that the product you wish to buy is not harmful to your health and presents no danger to your skin.
Thus, the materials used do not contain toxic substances.
The more the textile used is likely to be in direct contact with your skin, the more strict, minimal and controlled the quantity limits to be respected.
How does it work?
Today, Oeko-Tex laboratory tests include around 100 control parameters based on international testing standards and other recognized testing procedures.
To ensure the independent selection of each product, Oeko-Tex has 18 research institutes in Europe and Japan that will analyze each element of a product submitted.
The tests cover more than 300 substances but also PH, stability and color fastness.
Each year, these criteria are adjusted according to scientific advances.

To conclude, throughout production, our team carefully supervises each stage of manufacturing in order to perpetuate the unique know-how exercised by our partner manufacturers.
We regularly visit the cutting, sewing, shaping, printing, finishing and labeling to guarantee quality and compliance with the most demanding standards.
