Sustainability / Our responsibility -Suppliers and Producers

OUR RESPONSIBILITY


Sustainability is key for us in so many aspects: Environmentally sustainable materials and production. Sustainable clothing that is long lasting and good quality. Sustainable logistics options.  But perhaps most importantly, sustainable careers for everyone who works at Isbjörn of Sweden.

We are completely free of PFA’s and PFO’s. Not only for our kids and their wellbeing, but also for workers in the factories and the surrounding communities.

As most of our industry, we don’t have factories of our own. We work together with producers and suppliers who can fulfill our Code of Conduct and our requirements for sustainable materials.

It’s important to us that everyone working with Isbjörn can have long and prosperous careers with the ability to influence the world.
