Coq en Pâte is transparent about their materials’ countries of origin. By only working with SA8000‑, Sedex- or GOTS-certified factories, their supply chain working conditions are very transparent as well. We are however curious about the specific suppliers for their stitching and materials. Who exactly are they? We will find out for you.
Materials
Coq en Pâte wants to change the fashion industry. Their clothes and kid’s backpacks are unisex and ethically made in India from organic GOTS-certified cotton. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the world’s leading standard for organic fibres. Why choose organic cotton? Organic cotton is free of pesticides and harmful chemicals. Not only is this better for the planet but it’s also healthier for your children’s skin.
Coq en Pâte also have a range of unique toys made entirely in Brittany (France) from an innovative environmentally-friendly material: Algoblend® which is 50% plastic and 50% brown seaweed collected on the West coast of France.
The notebooks, cards and their range of letters are all made in France from FSC-certified recycled paper. This Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certificate is a guarantee that the wood has been sustainably extracted.
Ethical production
Coq en Pâte’s clothing and accessories are made in India and the toys are made in France. They carefully select their suppliers based on the expertise they offer as well as the working conditions they offer all of their workers. For this reason, Coq en Pâte works exclusively with SA8000‑, Sedex- or GOTS-certified factories. These social certificates guarantee fair and safe working conditions.
