We are very proud of the brands we represent. Sol's, being a European brand, has a global dimension and produces millions of garments every year, the vast majority in developing countries in Asia.
.
There is a lot of prejudice surrounding clothing production, especially given the old scandals of Nike using child labour or the recent news about a factory that produced for Zara and H&M.
It's very easy to jump to conclusions and think that brands don't have any quality standards. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Let's take the example of Sol's.

Responsibility for Quality

| OEKO-TEX | OEKO-TEX standard 100 guarantees that the final product does not contain any of the products identified as a health hazard for the wearer of the garment controlled and audited by the IFTH. |
| ORGANIC 100 | Quality and traceability of 100% cotton articles sourced from organic farming, guaranteed and controlled |

Of course, we believe that there is always something more that brands can do for the "well-being" of their employees and human beings, but what Sol's already does (and the list goes on) really makes a difference
