Longstanding supplier relationship

Knowledge Cotton Apparel Box Fit Short Sleeved Organic Linen Shirt footprint

People

To ensure social responsibility, KCA establishes long term relationships with carefully selected suppliers. In addition to KCA’s own supplier visits, they rely on third-party certification. Social compliance is a part of GOTS that each production step in the supply chain must comply with. This gives KCA the opportunity to ensure that social standards are met throughout their supply chain and not only with their direct supplier.

In addition to GOTS, KCA seeks out suppliers that have been third-party certified by SA8000, BSCI and Fairtrade.

Planet

Flax (from which linen fibres are derived) is resilient and can grow in poor soil, using far less water in its cultivation than cotton. According to the European Confederation of Linen and Hemp, “Across its lifecycle, a linen shirt uses 6.4 litres of water” compared to 2,700 litres for a cotton shirt. (Good On You) Flax production also replenishes the soil with vital nutrients that are depleted by cotton. 

Country of origin

Suppliers

Shirt: Cut and sewn in India by Sustainably crafted clothing PVT Ltd (GOTS, Fair Trade USA™ certified)

Organic Linen: China (GOTS)

Areas For Development

GOTS living wage policy currently only requires that national legal standards are met. KCA could collaborate with an organisation like the Fair Wear Foundation to advance the complex topic of a real living wage for garment workers.
