Klippan

Eco?

One of the mate­rials Klip­pan uses is eco wool. To obtain good wool, many sheep farms treat their ani­mals with pes­ti­ci­des. This is becau­se ver­min can crawl into the fur of the sheep and affect the wool. After years of research, some sheep­far­mers came to the con­clu­sion that it is not neces­sary to treat their sheep seve­ral times with pes­ti­ci­des. This gave rise to eco-wool. They treat the new­born sheep once with the neces­sary pro­duct and that should suf­fi­ce for his who­le life. The envi­ron­ment in which the sheep live has also not been trea­ted with dan­ge­rous che­mi­cals and antibiotics. 

Ani­mal wel­fa­re is very impor­tant to Klip­pan. That is why the brand carries out regu­lar checks on their sup­pliers. As a cus­to­mer, you can be sure of cruelty free wool. Klip­pan also has the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 cer­ti­fi­ca­tes. The ISO 9001 is a qua­lity mana­ge­ment sys­tem that offers a sys­te­ma­tic approach to orga­ni­sa­tions to achie­ve cus­to­mer objec­ti­ves and always deli­ver qua­lity. ISO 14001 is an Envi­ron­men­tal Mana­ge­ment Sys­tem that mea­su­res and impro­ves the envi­ron­men­tal impact of organisations. 

Ethical?

All tex­ti­les are pro­ces­sed by Klip­pan in their own fac­tory in Swe­den. We know from the lambs­wool that it comes from New Zea­land. Whe­re the other types of wool come from, such as the Merino, cash­me­re, Gotland and the eco wool, is not exactly men­tio­ned. What Klip­pan does relea­se is that the wool is fully tra­cea­ble to the sheep farms.

Circular?

At Klip­pan every pie­ce of mono-mate­rial is made. Recy­cling their home tex­ti­les could the­re­fo­re be pos­si­ble after a long lifes­pan. We at COSH! do not know whether they have any plans for this.
