Liebeskind

How sustainable is Liebeskind?

The com­pa­ny is main­ly focu­sing on impro­ving its mate­ri­al sour­cing. It wants to achie­ve 100% more sustai­na­ble cot­ton by 2030 and aims to increa­se that per­cen­ta­ge through its part­ner­ships with the Bet­ter Cot­ton Ini­ti­a­ti­ve and Cot­ton Made in Afri­ca. The last known per­cen­ta­ge of more sustai­na­ble cot­ton was only 5%, and the tar­get for 2020 is set at 15%. The com­pa­ny is mohair-free sin­ce 2020, but still uses ani­mal-deri­ved mate­ri­als, like wool and lea­ther, from uncer­ti­fied sour­ces.

S.Oliver Group has a Code of Con­duct and is a mem­ber of the Fair Labor Asso­ci­a­ti­on, which con­ducts inde­pen­dent audits, but doesn’t report on the audit fre­quen­cy or results and doesn’t pro­vi­de enough transpa­ren­cy con­cerning labor rights.
