Hotsprings and our Brands partners are committed to transparency across our Supply Chain including our current published commitments to ensure that our product and sourcing programs reduce environmental impacts, including the incorporation of Sustainable Development Goals in line with United Nations Fashions Industry Charter for climate change (UN Fashion Charter).

Our brands are committed to ensuring that both our products and sourcing programs are focused on reducing environmental impacts via a number of initiatives and projects including:

  • Incorporation of sustainable development goals in line with United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development including social justice where we are working with SEDEX to achieve these goals.
