People

Malhas is a small factory of about twenty employees, Brava has been working with them since 2017 and visits every quarter year. Brava purchases the wool and sends it to Malhas to knit.

Brava has an employee based in Portugal who checks all their Portuguese factories, in addition to this Brava visit every season.

Brava has drawn up a code of conduct based on the labour principles set out by WRAP (Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production). Brava sends this document to all their cut and sew factories to sign and follow it. This code covers matters of fair wages, chosen, adult labour, a safe working environment, the freedom to unions and collective bargaining, reasonable working hours, no discrimination, harassment or abuse, environmentally conscious practises, adherence to national laws and custom laws.

The Fair Wear Foundation considers Portugal a low risk country for the production of clothes, meaning that Fair Wear deems there to be functioning institutions and legislation that protect workers rights. Portugal's main labour law is relatively strict in comparison to other garment producing countries and there is a system to lodge complaints.

Planet

Wool is a natural fibre that insulates, breathes and lasts for a long time. Producing wool, however, is resource-intensive. It requires vast amounts of land for grazing sheep, water to clean the fibre and chemicals to treat the wool. Using recycled wool extends the useful life of a fibre that has already been produced. (Patagonia

The shorter fibres of recycled wool means it is normally blended with other fibres to create a durable yarn. Lyocell and recycled polyamide are more sustainable options than viscose and virgin polyamide. 

Areas for development

The environmental impact of lyocell can vary depending on the source. It would be good if Brava could track their lyocell back to source.
