Accountability
urban questAccountability
We are highly aware that, as a clothing brand in the textile industry, we must be responsible for the way we treat our planet and our fellow human beings across continents and national borders.
That is why we try to leave as small a footprint as possible.
Our bamboo is felled in FSC-certified forests, which means that the forest itself can reproduce all the bamboo used. The bamboo is cut into smaller pieces and the soft fabric we recognise from bamboo products is extracted in a closed circuit, where both water and chemicals are reused over and over again.
We ensure that all our suppliers treat their employees well and secure proper working conditions and salaries for them. This is achieved via a third-party audit.
How we do it
All products from URBAN QUEST are basic products. This means that they can be part of virtually any wardrobe – a must-have in everyday life. Because it’s clothing, that you can use, while you want to feel comfortable and relaxed.
All our products come in classic basic colours that are not determined by a particular season, but can be worn year after year.
That way, we can ensure that we don’t overproduce and push more products onto the market than necessary.
At the same time, it is important to us that our products are long-lasting. They need to stand up to being worn and washed countless times, resulting in a reduced need to acquire new casual wear over the years.
For os er ansvarlighed
- Selecting sustainable quality materials that are long-lasting.
- That our production process is as sustainable as possible.
- That our partners live up to our ethical standards in relation to working conditions, pay, etc.
- That our products do not go out of fashion, and can keep being worn and washed over and over again.
