PRODUCTION LOCATIONS
- Spain (Barcelona and the surrounding area)
WORKING CONDITIONS & LIVING WAGES
Cozmo states that all garments are produced exclusively in Barcelona. Part of the production happens in-house, in the brand’s own third-generation family workshop. The rest is made in small local workshops nearby. According to the brand, this local approach creates jobs in the community, including employment opportunities for women.
Producing in Spain means production falls under EU labour law, which lowers the risk of poor working conditions.
Cozmo does not publish a supplier list or audit reports, so working conditions cannot be independently verified.
MATERIALS
- Organic cotton
- BCI-certified cotton
- Linen
- Polyester
- Polyamide
- Polyacrylic
Some fibres are Oeko-Tex certified, which ensures they have been tested for hundreds of harmful substances and are safe for skin contact.
How sustainable is organic cotton actually?
PACKAGING
Cozmo states that it is eliminating all virgin plastic from its supply chain, covering products, packaging, poly bags and even office materials. According to the brand, it uses unbleached cardboard boxes, recycled paper for labels and cards, and recycled plastic for tags.
WATER USAGE & CHEMICALS
Cozmo does not share information about water usage, dyeing or chemical management.
CIRCULAR PRODUCT DESIGN
Some garments are made of mono-materials, which are much easier to recycle, while others contain fibre blends, which complicates recycling.
The brand shares conscious care instructions to help customers keep clothes looking great for longer, and encourages repairing over replacing.
CIRCULAR BUSINESS MODELS
Cozmo does not offer a take-back service or repair service.
DISTANCE & COMPLEXITY OF THE SUPPLY CHAIN
- Production location: Barcelona, Spain
- Cozmo’s HQ is located in Barcelona, Spain
TRANSPORTATION
- Cozmo does not disclose which transport modes are used.
- Detailed transport methods for e‑commerce shipping are not specified.
- Wool
- Down
- The brand does not disclose where its animal materials are sourced.
According to the brand, only mulesing-free wool is used. Mulesing is a painful practice where skin is cut away from sheep without anaesthetic. For down, the brand states it only uses upcycled down, so no animals are directly involved. Fur, mohair, hides, conventional silk and materials from endangered forests are banned from the collection. The brand does not mention certifications to back up these policies.
PRODUCT DESIGN
Cozmo makes baby and children’s clothing from 3 months to 12 years. The designs mix retro styles with modern influences: think bright colours, playful prints, gingham and ruffles. The brand claims its garments are made to last, with hand-picked fabrics selected for durability and softness on children’s sensitive skin.
SLOW FASHION PROCESSES
Cozmo does take part in sales periods: the webshop features a summer sale and a permanent outlet section.
The brand does not disclose how many collections it releases per year.
TRANSPARENCY ON PRODUCT
On the product page, consumers learn about the garment’s materials, certifications, origin, care instructions and sizing. This gives shoppers a clear picture of what the product is made of, where it is manufactured and how to look after it.
In terms of traceability, the transparency covers the final production stage: consumers know where the garment is sewn (Barcelona) and which certifications the material carries. However, the traceability does not go further up the supply chain. The page does not specify where the organic cotton is grown, where it is spun, woven or dyed, or which specific workshops are involved. The garment is therefore partially traceable, with clear information on materials, certifications and the place of manufacture, but without full visibility of the earlier supply chain stages.
TRANSPARENCY ON PROCESSES
Cozmo communicates openly that it is not yet fully sustainable and describes itself as being on an ongoing journey. That said, the brand only shares general information. There is no supplier list and no annual social or environmental report.
