Thanks to its many years of experience, ecos has developed into a competence center for sustainable textiles. In this context, ecos advises companies on sustainable procurement strategies, the implementation of sustainable value chains and the evaluation of labels and standards. In addition, ecos supports the development of partnerships with the help of a broad-based national and international network and regularly launches initiatives for more sustainable supply chains in the textile industry, such as the crowd-ordering project Traceable Tree Shirt. Here, customers can pre-order T-shirts made of organic cotton and track their production online until delivery.
