ETHICAL, ORGANIC AND SUSTAINABLE T-SHIRTS

Dirty Velvet produce long-lasting ethical clothing, made with minimal impact on the environment.

For over a decade, all their garments have been made from 100% organic cotton,  grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers and certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS).The fabric dyeing is also fully organic. The process used and the dyes themselves have organic certification by both GOTS and the Organic Content Standard (OCS).

The screen-printed graphics on our garments are made from water-based, organic certified inks which are much better for the environment and feel considerably softer on the garment than the more commonly used oil-based inks.

The Dirty Velvet factory is powered entirely by 100% renewable energy from on-site solar panels. The electricity generated exceeds the factory’s requirements, with the excess helping power the local area.

The factory is audited every two years by the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI). This independent inspection assesses the level of labour welfare, health and safety, environmental ethics and business standards.

Unlike many in the clothing industry, all employees of Dirty Velvet receive wages in excess of the UK living wage. They do not use unpaid interns ever.
