's vision for the future Most of the fabrics we use are made from recycled, certified materials, and all the production agents we work with will be GRS-certified by 2022. Since early 2025, we have been working with RethinkRebels, who continuously help us improve our sustainable vision. Over the past five years, our focus has been on developing a sustainable, high-quality collection with all the necessary material certifications. All our decisions have always been made as consciously as possible. When analyzing the sustainable business scan, we came to the conclusion that a large part of our focus should be on documenting our social and environmental requirements. We do this by setting the following goals:
Goals 2025/26
- Develop a Code of Conduct (COC) to which all our suppliers commit and which is signed by all tier 1 and 2 partners by the end of 2025.
- Develop a Restricted Substances List (RSL) and Manufacturer Restricted Substances List (MRSL) to which all our suppliers commit for all future production.
Code of Conduct In 2025, we will develop a Code of Conduct (COC) for all our suppliers, both those who assemble products and those who produce fabrics, trims, and even raw materials. This Code of Conduct is based on the BSCI principles, as we want to use the BSCI audits as a means of ensuring compliance with the COC. We will primarily monitor compliance with rules regarding working conditions, the working environment, and the environment and society. All our suppliers will sign an agreement to comply with our COC by the end of 2025.
RSL and MRSL
A Restricted Substances List (RSL) contains a list of chemicals and substances that must be banned from our clothing and production process at all times. The overall goal of developing an RSL is to reduce the use of hazardous substances in our goods and supply chains. By the end of 2025, all our tier 1 and tier 2 partners should have signed an agreement to comply with the RSL. Thanks to our material certificates, we already know that no prohibited chemicals are used in our fabrics. However, we want to have this well documented for transparent communication with our customers and partners.
Circularity
In line with the EU Green Deal, our industry's circular textile plan aims to produce 50% of each garment from sustainable materials by 2030 and to produce it completely circularly by 2050. As a brand, we constantly strive to incorporate circular and sustainable practices into our design process. We are currently exploring the possibilities for our garments and fabrics once they have reached the end of their life cycle. Recycling rainwear is currently a challenge within our industry, which is why we are exploring options for repair, rental, or a second life.
Long-term goals and strategy for 2027
- 100% traceability in our supply chain from tier 1 to tier 4
100% Traceability
In order to make substantial progress in improving our supply chain, it is essential that we make our entire supply chain as transparent as possible. Maium currently has insight into its partners from tier 0 to tier 2, and we want to expand this to tier 4 by 2025. By making this fully transparent, we as a company can take responsibility and minimize potential social and environmental risks.
