Sustainability
Sustainability Transparency Over Claims
TEXIVOS treats sustainability as it treats production: defined procedures, documents on file, and nothing stated that cannot be shown. This page sets out what the factory does, what it does not do, and what a buyer can ask to see.
Materials and Process
What Happens on Site, and What Does Not
TEXIVOS publishes no percentage, footprint figure or impact statement without a document behind it.
-
01
100% cotton fabrics
Every style is made from 100% cotton fabric. No synthetic blend and no undeclared fibre substitution.
-
02
No dyeing on site
TEXIVOS cuts, sews, prints and finishes. Fabric arrives dyed and finished from approved suppliers. No dyeing, bleaching or wet finishing takes place on site. As a result, the factory generates no wastewater from dyeing, bleaching or wet finishing.
-
03
Water-based printing
Screen printing uses water-based inks only. Plastisol inks are not used.
-
04
Fabric used with care
Markers are nested by software before automated cutting, so each lay of fabric is used as fully as the pattern allows.
Sourcing and Traceability
Every Lot Carries Its Documents
Fabric, trims and packaging are bought from approved suppliers, who sign the TEXIVOS Supplier Code of Conduct.
One order, one file
- Fibre: origin declaration
- Fabric lot: reference swatch
- Garment: test reports
- Order file: on request
- Fabric
- Fabric is supplied under a valid OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certificate. Every fabric lot arrives with a fibre-origin declaration from the mill, and a reference swatch of the lot is kept.
- Trims
- Labels, thread, buttons and drawcords are supplied under valid OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certificates and comply with the restricted substance requirements of REACH.
- Packaging
- Export cartons are recyclable corrugated board. Recycled-content polybags and FSC-certified hangtag paper are available on request.
- Order file
- For each order, supplier certificates, fibre-origin declarations and test reports are kept in one file, available to the buyer on request.
People and Workplace
TEXIVOS employs its production team directly, in Aleppo, under Syrian labour law and the fundamental principles of the International Labour Organization.
- A written employment contract for every worker

- No discrimination in hiring, pay or promotion
- Freedom of association as national law provides
- A safe workplace, with trained operators and protective equipment

Business Conduct
- All production takes place in the TEXIVOS factory. No production step is subcontracted without the buyer's prior written approval.
- Every buyer and every supplier works under a written contract with defined payment terms.
- No bribe, gift or improper payment is offered or accepted.
- Buyer designs, prices and names are kept confidential.
Due Diligence
Documents for Your Own Compliance
Many brands and retailers are subject to, or prepare for, supply chain due diligence requirements under laws such as the German Supply Chain Act, the French Duty of Vigilance Law, the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive and the EU Forced Labour Regulation. TEXIVOS answers supplier questionnaires and, on request and under a confidentiality agreement, provides a due diligence file for each order.
The file holds:
- Fibre-origin declarations for the fabric lots of the order
- The Supplier Code of Conduct signed by the suppliers of the order
- Supplier certificates, with the products each one covers
- Test reports for applicable restricted substances under REACH
Social audit and certification are covered by the three-stage compliance programme.
