Ethics & environment

 

Our main supplier is OEKO-TEX 100 STANDARD certified, which guarantees the safety of our textiles and dyestuffs to human health and also means we take care in adopting environmentally friendly production methods across all our products.

Lateral Hazard believes in and supports fair and ethical trade. In order to underline this and to promote these practices world wide, Lateral Hazards main supplier was chosen due to its membership of the FAIR WEAR FOUNDATION. The FWF exists to promote fair labour conditions in the garment industry world wide; this means that our main supplier has undersigned FWF's Code of Labour practices, and thereby has committed itself to monitor the factories of its suppliers, and the Fair Wear Foundation verifies that the Code of Labour Practices is actually implemented and respected at the factories. Leading international producers in the field of fashion have also joined FWF.   Our main supplier was the first company in the UK to support the FWF by becoming a member.
