Responsible Materials

Cotton makes up most of the collections, therefore it's crucial they use the most responsible cotton in their designs. 100% is sustainability sourced and 95% is GOTS certified organic cotton. The use of organic cotton means it takes 88% less water and 62% less energy to make, without the use of harmful chemicals and pesticides.
They also ensure a minimum of 20% recycled materials are used in almost all other garments in their collections.

Packaging

Removal of all non-essential metal trims and rivets across all denim pieces.
Use of embroidery to minimise non-compostable trims.
All back neck labels and care labelling will be 100% recycled in 2024.
Garment swing tags are made from 100% recycled cardboard.

Manufacturing and Factories

Each collection is designed 12-18 months ahead of launch, with a slow process of ensuring there is enough time for product development, relationship building with factory partners and ensuring each piece is created to last. Each limited collection usually includes 15-35 styles per drop, with an average of 100-350 pieces per style to minimise landfill waste.

They have have 12 key supply partners across Turkey, China and India, with part of their team based in Turkey who conduct weekly visits to their factory partners, whilst other factories are audited regularly by a third party.

Wash cold – You should wash clothes at 30 degrees or below, to not only save energy, but also protect garments from shrinking, fading and releasing microfibres.
Wash with eco-detergent and skip the fabric softener – By switching to an eco-conscious detergent, you may save your skin from irritation and clothes from harmful chemicals.

Donate or sell-on – Damson Madder’s garments have so much life within them, so if you do decide to part with them, make sure you give them to someone who can enjoy them as much as you have.
Recycle – Look for your nearest recycling point or textile bank, they will process and recycle clean & dry clothing and textiles for free.
