Enviroment
We produce approximately 2 million garments each year entirely in our own factories/plants, where our primary materials are cotton and various synthetic fibers. We have asked ourselves the question what impact our activities have on the environment. The textile industry through it's need for energy to supply production, pesticides, large quantities of chemicals used for dyeing garments as well as other treatments have historically had a negative impact on our environment. Therefore the impact of our own production lines on the environment has been a concern.
We have made serious efforts to be as eco-friendly as possible and at AB Blåkläder our efforts to establish our current environmental management system has met ISO 14001 requirements.
You, our clients, can easily do your part too for the environment. You should; not wait until the garments are filthy, use a lower temperature wash which uses less energy, use eco-friendly detergents, and when the garment is worn out discard it appropriately not with other industrial/construction waste, etc.
