On this page, we show the most important steps for our own-brand models: from materials and manufacturing to finishing in Germany and shipping. Country of production, material composition, and existing certifications vary by product and can be found directly with the respective item.

<strong>Production </strong>of our own models

Production of our own models

Depending on the model, our own designs are manufactured in Bangladesh, India, or Turkey. Our code of conduct outlines the requirements for our production partners: no child or forced labor, safe workplaces and valid contracts, freedom of association, no discrimination, regulated working hours, and wages that are intended to cover the cost of living. For GOTS-certified products, the GOTS social criteria also apply.

<strong>OUR</strong> RAW MATERIALS

OUR RAW MATERIALS

We use organic cotton, linen, hemp, recycled fibers, and wood-based fibers such as TENCEL™ Lyocell and LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose. You can find the fiber composition of each product on the respective item page.

<strong>ORGANIC COTTON</strong> AND GOTS

ORGANIC COTTON AND GOTS

For certified organic cotton, genetically modified seeds and synthetic chemical pesticides are not permitted. GREEN SHIRTS is GOTS-licensed. Whether an item is GOTS-certified can be found on the respective product page.

<strong>TRANSPORT</strong>, PACKAGING &amp; SHIPPING

TRANSPORT, PACKAGING & SHIPPING

Our finished raw materials arrive by ship in Hamburg. From there, they go to our partners in Germany, where we embroider, label, and print the goods.

Centralized shipping from Germany via DHL. We pay attention to compact packaging dimensions, avoid plastic padding, and reuse boxes whenever possible. Track & trace is provided for every shipment.

For shipping packaging, we use folding boxes made of grass paper and recycled cardboard – plastic-free, including the filler material.

<strong>LABELING, STICK & PRINT</strong>

LABELING, STICK & PRINT

We manufacture labels and hangtags in Germany. The raw materials receive our GREEN SHIRTS label and – depending on the product – a logo embroidery from a GOTS-certified embroidery shop.

We work with a specialist printing company in Germany. We print using water-based inks – for brilliant prints.

<strong>PAYMENT METHODS & PROVIDERS</strong>
