DevoHome

PRODUCTION LOCATIONS

• Ukraine: Main production in Kyiv
• Italy: Partner facility for yarn production from hemp fibres
• Lithuania: Processing in specialised hemp spinning mills
• Tunisia: Cooperation with a factory for hemp fibre processing

WORKING CONDITIONS & WAGES

DevoHome primarily produces in Ukraine, where the hemp is grown, processed, and transformed into textiles. The wet spinning of fibres takes place in Italy, Lithuania, and Tunisia, where the necessary facilities exist.
The brand operates according to Fair Trade principles and holds EU organic certification, while its fabrics are Oeko-Tex 100 certified. These certifications demonstrate environmentally responsible and socially ethical production practices.

DevoHome maintains close, family-like relationships with its suppliers and partners, as much of the production takes place domestically. The company owns its own facilities, allowing direct control over quality and working conditions. The family-driven nature of the brand ensures a trustworthy and personal connection with all involved.
All products are handmade, reflecting a high degree of care and craftsmanship.

MATERIALS

• EU organic-certified hemp, Oeko-Tex 100
• Cotton
• rPET

Is hemp actually a sustainable fibre?

PACKAGING

• DevoHome uses paper bags and cardboard boxes for online orders. Larger items such as blankets come in reusable cotton bags for storage, while smaller products are sometimes sent in potentially biodegradable plastic packaging. 
• Within the supply chain, DevoHome reuses thick plastic bags multiple times or replaces them with fabric leftovers to avoid waste.

WATER USAGE & CHEMICALS

The hemp is grown without pesticides or herbicides, requiring around 75% less water than cotton. No chemicals are used for dyeing, bleaching, or printing, as the fabrics retain their natural colour and are simply washed with soap. The brand holds EU organic certification for its hemp and the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 label for its textiles. By avoiding synthetic fibres, no microplastic emissions occur.

CIRCULAR PRODUCT DESIGN 

DevoHome primarily uses mono-materials, as most products are made entirely from hemp. Items made from blended fibres make later recycling more difficult. 

Hemp offcuts from production are repurposed into dog mats and teapot cosies, hemp fabric scraps into hemp scrubs, and offcuts from bedlinen sets into linen bags. In addition, a limited upcycling collection was created in collaboration with embroidery artist Lisa Woona, including embroidered pieces in the Japanese sashiko style. 

Each piece is one of a kind. There is no take-back service for used items.

CIRCULAR BUSINESS MODELL

DevoHome does not offer a repair service. Equally, there is no return service for used or worn products. Other circular business models such as rental, resale or repair programmes are currently not part of the brand’s approach. 

Instead, DevoHome pursues a production-integrated upcycling approach: offcuts and fabric scraps are consistently transformed into new products, ensuring that no material from production goes to waste. 
The focus is furthermore on the durability and washability of the products in order to extend their lifespan.

DISTANCE & COMPLEXITY OF SUPPLY CHAIN

• Ukraine
• Italy
• Lithuania
• Tunisia
• DevoHome is based in Kyiv, Ukraine.

Most production takes place in Ukraine.

TRANSPORT 

• DevoHome transports raw hemp over short distances – about 5 to 10 km from the field to the processing facility. This proximity between cultivation and production reduces transport emissions. Within Ukraine, finished materials and products are distributed via lorry, while local deliveries in Kyiv sometimes use an electric car. 
  There is no available information on transport to other countries.
• For international shipping, DevoHome cooperates with the logistics company Fidelity. There is no indication of carbon-offset options or specific measures to reduce emissions in international transport.

DevoHome exclusively uses plant-based materials.
The company received the PETA Vegan Award 2025 and is PETA Approved Vegan.
The company has signed a FurFree retailers agreement and does not use animal derivative products.

PRODUCT DESIGN

DevoHome offers products for adults, children, and babies, including bedding, blankets, clothing, home textiles, and accessories. The brand is especially known for its baby collection featuring hypoallergenic hemp products such as pillows and blankets.

Its design style is timeless, simple, and functional, focusing on comfort, naturalness, and everyday use.

SLOW FASHION PROCESS

DevoHome maintains a permanent collection that is occasionally complemented by new products. The focus is on timeless, long-lasting products rather than seasonal trends.

PRODUCT TRANSPARENCY 

Product pages on DevoHome’s website include detailed information on materials and product properties. Additional notes describe features such as hypoallergenic, breathable, antibacterial, shape-retaining, or machine washable. Details such as size, filling weight, and care instructions (washing temperature, drying, chemical treatment) are also precisely listed.

Individual product pages lack information on origin and supply chain. Details regarding the country of manufacture and the sourcing of materials are only accessible on general subpages of the website.

PROCESS TRANSPARENCY

The brand states that its products are mainly made in Ukraine, with part of the fibre processing – especially wet spinning – taking place in other countries. It also highlights aspects such as artisanal production, pesticide-free cultivation, and certification according to EU Organic and Oeko-Tex 100, reflecting more environmentally and socially responsible practices.

While individual product pages do not include complete supply chain information, DevoHome provides general details on material sourcing and country of manufacture on dedicated subpages of the website, ensuring a basic level of transparency.

However, the company was transparent towards COSH! and provided comprehensive information on production sites, materials, and processes.
