ABOUT OUR MAKERS

We feel extremely privileged to have a close relationship with each and every one of our suppliers - they are part of our extended family here at POSSE and we’re so grateful for their ongoing support and dedication to our brand. 

Our suppliers share the same ethos as we do, to manufacture responsibly and ethically. With the help of our suppliers, we are constantly searching for better practices and more efficient ways of doing things to ensure we’re treading as lightly as we can.

POSSE currently has partnerships with four suppliers located in both India and China. 

Our main suppliers are our woven partners who produce around 80% of our POSSE garments. Our woven partners were one of the first factories in India to become carbon neutral. They also run an internal program which pays for the schooling of their employees daughters, allowing them to have access to an education.

Our Fabric Certifications

Here at POSSE, we are committed to using a range of carefully sourced, luxury fabrications to ensure the highest standard of quality is being met. Our price points are a reflection of these premium fabrications alongside the quality, longevity and skilled craftsmanship of our products. 

With the help from our manufacturing partners, we are dedicated to using the most sustainable materials we can source. We work with a number of fabrications including European Flax® linen, OEKO-TEX linen, GOTS organic cotton, BCI cotton and responsibly sourced wool.

Our Fabric Certifications

European Flax® - The European Flax® certification guarantees that the linen is made from premium, sustainably grown flax fibres cultivated in Western Europe. Certified European Flax® linen is traceable from the field to the finished product, ensuring transparency and authenticity. The certification emphasises non-GMO crops, minimal use of pesticides, and no irrigation, reinforcing its eco-friendly credentials.

OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 - The OEKO-TEX Standard 100 means the linen is completely free from harmful chemicals and substances. Our linens are soft, breathable and get better with every wear.

GOTS CERTIFIED - (Global Organic Textile Standard) - A number of our POSSE pieces are made from GOTS certified organic cotton. Organic cotton is grown without the use of pesticides, from seeds which have not been genetically modified. Organic cotton uses 91% less water and emits 46% less CO2 emissions than conventional cotton, having a significantly better impact on both our people and our planet. 

BCI certification- The Better Cotton Initiative is a set of on-farm best practices covering social and environmental issues like pesticides, water, soil health and wellbeing. Their aim is to make cotton farming a more climate-resilient, environmentally friendly and responsible business.
