Feuervogl visits its long-standing production partners in Tunisia and Turkey every 10 – 12 weeks and emphasises ethical conditions throughout the entire supply chain. The company acts in accordance with the standards of the UN Declaration of Human Rights, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the OECD Guidelines for Responsible Business Conduct. Production is also audited annually by the amfori BSCI initiative.
As part of the Fashion Revolution campaign ‘Who Made My Clothes’, Feuervogl also draws attention to the origin of textiles and makes the people behind the clothing visible.
Feuervogl primarily uses GOTS-certified organic cotton, linen, hemp and (recycled) elastane are also used. To finish the denim, Feuervogl uses an environmentally friendly ozone treatment that saves water and does not use any harmful substances. By the way: for every item sold, they plant a tree that becomes visible to customers in Ecologi’s virtual forest.
Did you know that Feuervogl is an IVN member (International Association of the Natural Textile Industry) and has been awarded the Grüner Knopf label?
The clothing brand relies primarily on pure fibres, but also occasionally uses blended fibres that make the recycling process more difficult.
Feuervogl is based in Germany and the textiles are produced in Tunisia and Turkey. The distance between Feuervogl and the production sites means high emissions due to long transport routes.
Feuervogl makes no claims about the use of animal products, but deliberately uses apple leather as an alternative to leather patches on its jeans.
The brand focuses on high quality and timeless, simple design, which makes the clothing durable. In addition, care instructions and washing tips can be found on the website for each item of clothing.
Feuervogl does not organise promotional days, such as Black Friday, and instead (even) plants trees for every product ordered throughout the year.
The team behind Feuervogl is small. The employees from the production facility are shown in pictures on the website, which offers customers transparency.
COSH! appreciates the open approach of the brand, which clearly communicates that planting trees does not save the climate, but is merely a sensible measure to regulate the climate.
Conclusion
Feuervogl demonstrates with every step how important it is to act in an ecologically and socially responsible manner. The German women’s and men’s clothing brand offers a huge selection of high-quality jeans styles and washes that guarantee long-lasting enjoyment.
