For a better future! - This item meets our high sustainability standard. The following criteria apply:

• 

  fair and social production

  This criterion includes socially acceptable production conditions and a transparent value chain for the products. In addition to internationally regulated social standards, there are a number of specific measures that are initiated and implemented by the manufacturers.
• 

  pollutant-reduced production

  Pollutants can have a negative impact on humans, animals and entire ecosystems. The manufacture of sustainable products is characterised by the reduction or elimination of harmful chemicals.
• 

  recycled material

  This criterion includes products with materials made from already used ingredients that have been processed into new fabrics. For example, many sustainable bags are made from ocean plastics: their production causes fewer emissions.
• 

  vegan

  Items with no components of animal origin are labelled "vegan".
