RESPONSIBILITY

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Ulvang is not only concerned about producing warm, functional and high quality products, but we also focus on the company’s social responsibility. We work closely with all our suppliers to ensure that we know the country of origin of raw materials and can guarantee the use of non-mulesed wool.

Our ethical guidelines are communicated to all our suppliers and are incorporated in all contracts. Suppliers must sign comprehensive Code of Conduct (COC) agreements. Ulvang employs persons whose main responsibility is to visit our textile producers to ensure that they are complying with our ethical guidelines and COC principles. With our CSR efforts, we support human rights, worker’s rights, the environment and development throughout the entire value chain. All of these efforts reflect our close relationship to nature and our commitment to ensuring a responsible and sustainable value chain for our products. Our objective is to monitor the entire value chain and ensure responsible animal welfare practices.

Our focus on social responsibility has helped create a more sustainable and environmentally friendly collection. This focus will be more and more important for us in the years ahead and will guide much of the work on future collections.
