Production Locations
- Poland (Alwero’s own cutting and sewing workshops, in the south of the country)
Working Conditions & Living Wages
Alwero is a small, independent family company and makes all products in its own factory in Poland. Because the products are handmade, the brand relies on in-house craftspeople.
The brand complies with EU labour guidelines and offers fair working conditions.
Nevertheless, there is no confirmation of living wages or any social certification.
Materials
- Wool
The brand carries the Woolmark certificate. Woolmark certifies fibre content and quality (that the product is genuine pure wool and meets performance standards for shrinkage, colour fastness and workmanship).
Packaging
Alwero does not disclose what packaging materials it uses, either in e‑commerce or in the supply chain.
Water Usage & Chemicals
Alwero shares no information about water use, chemical management, or dyeing and finishing processes.
Because the products are 100% wool, they do not shed plastic microfibres when washed.
Circular Product Design
Alwero’s products are monomaterial, which are generally easier to recycle at end of life than blends.
Circular Business Models
Alwero mentions no repair, take-back, resale or rental service.
Distance & Complexity of the Supply Chain
- HQ & production: south of Poland (own workshop)
- Wool source: Polish mountain sheep, close to the production site
Transportation
Alwero does not disclose how it ships products, either within the supply chain or to customers.
- Wool, mulesingfree
- Sourced from polish mountains
The brand mentions the Woolmark certification but no code of conduct.
Product Design
Alwero makes woollen products for adults and children: slippers, scarves, cardigans, blankets and more.
Slow Fashion Processes
The brand claims its designs are timeless and built to last, thanks to durable wool and traditional craft.
Transparency on Product
Each productpage lists the material, the country of manufacture and clear care instructions. The pages also mention the brand’s Woolmark claim and describe the wool as mulesing-free.
Transparency on Processes
The brand makes all its products in its own workshop in Poland, and the wool comes from sheep in the Polish mountains, close to where the garments are made. Because sourcing and production sit in the same country, the process is easy to follow and the supply chain stays short and traceable at country level.
