At KA-BON we consider that "SUSTAINABILTY" is the key to what we do. In our production of high quality garments, we strive to lower our impact on the environment whilst ensuring a fair wage and good working conditions for individuals working within the industry.
We have made a clear commitment to work only with factories that are accredited and monitored under international standards. KA-BON is currently in the process of attaining membership of international environmental and ethical stewardship associations. (AMFORI; SMETA)
KA-BON considers product transparency and traceability important. We promote the use of raw materials that, when produced, are less harmful to the environment and that require production processes that will not harm workers.
