People
Rajlakshmi Cotton Mills was founded in 1934 and was one of the first factories to work with organic cotton in the late 90's early 2000's. Today they work with almost exclusively organic and fair trade cotton. The factory has earned a reputation for high quality tailoring and respect for workers. They have a positive stance towards unions, with workers having the freedom to join any union they want. Workers also benefit from contributions to medical insurance and reimbursement for education fees for children up to university level.
KnowlegeCotton Apparel builds long term relationships with ethically certified factories. Their garments are GOTS certified which contains a robust social element that all manufacturers and processors throughout a products supply chain must meet.
Planet
The Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) aims to improve the welfare of sheep and the land they graze on. It's a voluntary standard that requires all sites, from wool farms to the seller in the final business-to-business transaction, to be certified. RWS farmers and ranchers are evaluated against animal welfare, land management, and social requirements set in the standard.
KnowledgeCotton Apparel sources fabrics and raw materials from the same parts of the world as their clothes are cut and sewn. This lowers carbon emissions.

Areas for development
Becoming a Fair Wear Foundation member goes beyond auditing and gives brands an external framework to engage with social concerns on an even deeper level. That said, KnowlegeCotton Apparel’s GOTS certification is a robust social standard that covers the entire supply chain.
