People
Karamans Tekstil is based in Istanbul and has been running since 1995. It has a team of a hundred employees and aims to produce high quality and fair clothing.
KCA have worked with their Turkish manufacturing partners since the brand was founded in 2008 and visit them on a regular basis.
This sweatshirt is GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified. All stages of production from fibre growers to processors and manufacturers are audited and must have systems in place to ensure social criteria based on the key norms of the International Labour Organisation (ILO) are met.
Planet
Organic cotton protects the environment and also farmers who may suffer ill health when coming into contact with the intensive fertilisers and pesticides used in conventional cotton production.
Impact compared to conventional or generic fiber; 91% less water use, 61% less energy use, 46% less carbon dioxide.
Knowledge Cotton Apparel's second and third tier suppliers (fabrics and raw materials) are based in the same geographical region as products are cut and sewn. The reduces the carbon footprint of their products compared to other fashion supply chains where it is common for inputs to cross back and forth around the world.
Areas for development
GOTS living wage policy currently only requires that national legal standards are met. We’d love to see KCA collaborate with an organisation like the Fair Wear Foundation to advance the complex topic of a real living wage for garment workers.
