TESTED AND CHECKED THROUGH AND THROUGH

All ALBERTO pants are developed with a great love for detail in Germany at our Mönchengladbach headquarters. When choosing the materials, 95 percent of which are sourced in Europe and 5 percent in Asia, we ensure they are absolutely safe. Uninterrupted traceability, all the way to the top cloth, is a given. We also visit all our suppliers on location. Together we define social, environmental and quality assurance standards and audit compliance. We also give preference to vendors who are pursuing their own sustainability projects, as well as materials that are already Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified. Our NOS as well as all seasonal collections are uniformly certified with the respective seal. As of 2022, the entire ALBERTO Collection will be Oeko-Tex Standard 100 compliant. In a second step, at the time of sampling, all materials are tested for their physical properties in our own lab, and for chemical characteristics in a third party lab. A top fabric must meet our in-house quality standards to be included in our collection. A final in-house inspection of the 15 to 20 we perform is conducted before the merchandise is retailed.
