Safe to produce, safe to use
Our vertically-integrated manufacturing processes give Gildan maximum control over every phase of apparel production from sourcing of cotton and other raw materials to the fabric finishes and dyes we use. We strive to build sustainability, safety and quality assurance measures into every phase of production.
In addition to earning Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certification for all Gildan® and anvil® branded apparel, other than caps and visors, the Gildan Environmental Code of Practice (ECP) has been integrated into all our own facilities, including a list of allowable materials that are free from substances harmful to humans or the environment. The ECP:
Reassures our customers that our products are clean and safe for their health
Ensures a safe working environment for our employees
Minimizes our environmental impact
In 2013, Gildan joined the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, a trade organization representing more than a third of the global apparel and footwear market. The Coalition is working to reduce the environmental and social impacts of apparel and footwear products around the world.
In 2004, Gildan became the first manufacturer serving the wholesale imprinted activewear market in North America to obtain the Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certification, an internationally recognized standard that assures our garments are free from harmful substances.
The Gildan Quality System, our proactive approach to quality control, sets high performance standards at every phase of production, and involves rigorous testing to ensure that we meet or surpass these standards at every step along the way — from yarn spinning to distribution.
